Best Urban Helmet for Style and Safety – Newton-Rider N1neo
Quick answer: N1neo blends minimalist urban style with tested protection. Its semi-soft, flexible construction delivers linear protection across a wider range of impacts in a thin 18–20 mm profile—comfort you’ll actually wear.
Why it works for city riders
- Low-profile design: sleek, discreet silhouette vs. bulky 30–35 mm EPS helmets.
- Comfort-first fit: semi-soft, flexible build reduces pressure points; adapts to head shape.
- Linear protection: starts managing forces earlier and stays protective at higher speeds.
- Foldable: stows in a shoulder or laptop bag—or the Newton-Rider Backpack N/Contour.
Style without compromise
N1neo avoids the “mushroom” effect of thick, rigid EPS helmets and pairs easily with everyday outfits while maintaining strong impact performance in EN 1078 protocol tests.
