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 Newton-Rider N1neo weighs approximately 475 g, making it a light and comfortable modern bicycle helmet. Its low weight adds comfort for longer rides, while its performance exceeds many EPS helmets in EN 1078 protocol tests.Learn how thinner design reduces weight and linear protection improves safety.
