A1 Helmet Earns a Perfect 5 Star Virginia Tech Rating

The results are in! The A1 Classic MIPS Helmet takes top safety honors, earning a perfect 5 star rating in Virginia Tech’s impact test and was the number one tested ‘MOUNTAIN’ helmet. Partnering with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, Virginia Tech’s safety test evaluates a helmet’s ability to reduce linear acceleration and rotational velocity which in the end equates to a reduction in concussion risk. It’s simple, the higher the star rating the lower the risk of concussion.
