Linear Response Protection™ is Newton-Rider’s patented helmet architecture — designed to manage both linear and rotational impact forces through its flexible multi-pad construction.

The N1neo, with its flexible shell design and discreet ventilation layout, is as comfortable in warm conditions as many other urban-style helmets. It is a strong choice for cyclists who want both comfort and linear protection to help reduce concussion risk, with all EN 1078 protocol tests passed.

Key takeaway: Linear Response Protection™ is not limited to linear impacts. N1neo's nine independent pads and flexible liner are designed to respond to impact energy from initial contact across a broader spectrum of impact forces, incorporating both linear and rotational components — without relying on an additional slip liner.
