A few days ago, Norway’s Sweet Protection launched a limited-edition Silver Smoke colorway for their Falconer 2Vi Mips helmet series. This special edition colorway looks really cool. It features a metallic base finish with a translucent smoky overlay that creates visual depth and reveals different tones depending on viewing angle.
But, you should know that Sweet Protection says this is a single production run with zero plans for restocking once it’s sold out. So, if you love it, act fast.
The Silver Smoke finish is available on both versions of the brand’s Falconer helmet line. So, the standard Falconer 2Vi Mips and the aerodynamically focused Falconer Aero 2Vi Mips.
Both models incorporate Mips technology. This technology allows the helmet to rotate slightly during angled impacts, potentially reducing rotational forces transferred to the brain. The helmets are designed for various cycling disciplines, from casual group rides to competitive racing scenarios.
The Falconer series targets cyclists who want both performance features while maintaining a clean aesthetic. Both helmets include impact protection systems designed to handle the demands of road cycling, whether tackling steep climbs, sprint intervals, or high-speed descents.
This limited edition is available through Sweet Protection’s website and select retail partners. The Silver Smoke colorway represents the company’s approach to combining functional safety equipment with design elements that appeal to cyclists who want reliable protection combined with great looks.
Here’s some more info on the helmets.
