What reviewers say

Schneider Saddlery buyers give it 4.6 of 5 over 47 reviews. Riders say it stays comfortable for a whole ride, sizes true, and breathes well in humid Southern summers. Several are on their second or third Tipperary. The few complaints are about color options or shipping, not the helmet itself.

Good

  • Low back covers more of the head
  • Comfortable for long rides
  • Good venting
  • Reflective band for low light

Not so good

  • Color choices change by season
  • Costs more than basic schooling helmets

Who it's for

Riders who want more rear coverage than a standard schooling helmet. Skip it if you need a traditional show look.
