FOX HEAD Dropframe Pro MIPS – MTB Helmet

The Dropframe Pro redefines what an open face helmet can be. Superlight and extremely comfortable, it’s the choice for trail riders of all levels seeking more coverage, more confidence and more fun.

This game-changing open faced enduro helmet features the dual-density Varizorb™ EPS liner and our proprietary M.O.RE. (Mandibular Occipital Reinforcement) Guard design. M.O.RE provides more coverage for the ears, jaw, and back of the head. This combination provides the most complete coverage we offer in an open face helmet.

Anyone who sees the FOX Dropframe helmet for the first time probably thinks to oneself: ‘What is that for a helmet? What do you need it for?’ I thought so, too. But the additional protection for ears, jaw and back of the head is just awesome. Sure, if you hold the helmet in your hand the chin bar is visually missing. However, you do not want to wear an Enduro full-face helmet on every enduro tour although these are already really light and well ventilated. The wearing experience is completely new with the Dropframe but one gets used to it very quickly and I also like the look of the helmet very much. Well then, rally some friends and go out to the trails. All my friends were immediately enthusiastic about the helmet – a real alternative to a ‘normal’ MTB helmet. You really get the feeling that your head is more protected, but you do not go without lightness and ventilation. The Fidlock closure is very straightforward, very easy to open and close while wearing gloves. The helmet will accompany me from now on many somewhat more demanding tours. Unfortunately, the width cannot be regulated individually due to its new shape. But even here FOX has a solution and offers the helmet in individual sizes. Thus, each head will find a good fit.
