Linear 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.Read about comfort in all weather and ventilation from thin design.
