Specialized S-Works Prevail 3 Helmet

The S-Works Prevail 3 Helmet is perfect for riders who value comfort and the thermoregulation benefits offered by superior ventilation. It is the ultimate helmet that excels in hot conditions, strenuous climbs and mountainous stages.

In a never-ending quest to push the limits of ventilation, we've removed the foam "bridges" that block airflow in the center, effectively creating air channels that increase ventilation surface area by 24.5% over compared to the S-Works Prevail II Vent helmet. The new S-Works Prevail 3 has the largest ventilation surface of any helmet we've ever made.

When a helmet is hit, its job is to dissipate the energy from the helmet. The conventional approach to helmet design is that more EPS foam means better energy management. We've revolutionized cycling helmet design by innovating beyond foam. Aramid fiber "cables" run through the hull and are anchored to the carbon fiber side panels. In the event of an impact, the AirCage* technology works like a suspension bridge and is designed to distribute localized forces throughout the helmet.

The occipital adjustment optimizes comfort by customizing the fit to the individual head shape and the angle of the helmet can be adjusted to be compatible with glasses. The Tri-Fix adjustable strap system offers riders greater comfort with new, thinner 10mm straps that minimize noise at high speed. And ANGI-ready and height-adjustable, the ultra-light Mindset micro-adjust system has been updated for improved grip and easy on-the-fly adjustment.

Our ultralight, unmatched comfort MIPS Air Node technology is integrated directly into the helmet's padding system, with a low-friction layer designed to dissipate rotational forces generated on impact. Using Specialized's own development work, we've added perforations to maximize breathability, performance, comfort and weight savings.
