The new MET Rivale Mips marks a leap forward in the evolution of road cycling helmets—crafted for speed, styled for impact, and engineered for safety without compromise. With a sleek silhouette, featherlight feel, and cutting-edge safety tech, this helmet delivers the performance you expect from MET’s racing pedigree in a design that commands attention.
Built to Go Faster. Designed to Go Further.
Every contour of the MET Rivale Mips is sculpted to slice through the wind. Its aero-tuned profile includes a signature tube-shaped tail that optimizes airflow and minimizes drag, making it a weapon of choice whether you're sprinting, chasing breakaways, or crushing solo efforts.
While the design whispers speed, the comfort screams endurance. At just 250 grams, it’s one of the lightest MIPS-equipped helmets in its class—barely noticeable, even on century rides.
MIPS-C2® – Integrated Safety for the Real World
The Rivale Mips doesn’t just protect against direct impacts—it goes further. By integrating the MIPS-C2® brain protection system, it guards against rotational forces from angled crashes, providing critical protection in real-world cycling scenarios. The rotational impact system moves independently from the outer shell, reducing the risk of brain injury without compromising fit or airflow.
Refined Fit, Zero Pressure Points
Comfort meets precision with MET’s signature fit system. The 360° head belt wraps evenly around the skull, eliminating hotspots and pressure points, while vertical adjustment allows for a truly personalized fit. The Rivale’s internal shape has been optimized for a secure, locked-in feel, even when riding over rough surfaces or out of the saddle.
Combined with Air Lite straps and a minimal buckle system, the result is a helmet that vanishes once it's on your head—so you can focus on the ride, not the gear.
Performance That Works for You
MET has engineered the Rivale Mips with a philosophy of purposeful design—everything has a function. Large, strategically positioned vents pull in air at the front and exhaust heat at the rear, all guided by an internal air channeling system. Whether you're grinding up a summer climb or powering through intervals, ventilation is constant and effective.
The integrated sunglasses ports add a layer of convenience and style, while reflective decals improve low-light visibility, making it as suitable for post-work rides as it is for race day.
