Features

Bontrager's Specter WaveCel helmet has been recognized by Red Dot for achievement in Product Design and awarded the distinction of Best Innovative Product. Winners of this prestigious international award are evaluated on functionality, aesthetics, and responsibility.

*Based on reduction in rotational acceleration at impact. Probability of injury in an actual accident depends on numerous factors, including nature of impact and individual health.

WaveCel is a collapsible cellular structure that lines the inside of your helmet. It works like a crumple zone that absorbs the force of an impact before it reaches your head. Read the study to learn more. You’ll never want to ride anything else again.

All WaveCel helmets received the highest rating from Virginia Tech's third-party testing facility. This unbiased assessment proved Bontrager's WaveCel helmets to be among the highest level of protection available to cyclists with a 5-STAR rating.

WaveCel keeps you cooler. It minimizes traditional heat-capturing EPS foam and sits perpendicular to the helmet, allowing for more air flow to your forehead and temples. These areas of your head are the most perceptive regions for cooling.

Bontrager's breakthrough WaveCel helmet technology was named to TIME Magazine's list of 100 Best Inventions making the world better, smarter, and even a bit more fun.
