With over 90 years in the business, Belgium-based Lazer has been at the forefront of rider safety with a deep understanding of crash protection and helmet design that few other companies can match. Their Z1 MIPS Helmet is the result of pushing all their technologies as far as they could, producing an ultralight helmet that incorporates MIPS cutting-edge multi-directional impact protection that reduces rotational forces on the head during real-world impacts. Lazer's Advanced Rollsys® fit system surrounds your head completely to reduce pressure points, and the thumb wheel on the top of the helmet is easy to adjust on the fly and doesn't get in the way if you're rocking a long hairstyle. The location and shape of the 31 vents were tunnel-tested to ensure they keep the maximum amount of air flowing to keep you cool, and should the worst happen, Lazer's Rigidity Brace System reinforces the structure with internal framework for extra protection in a multi-impact crash.
Create two helmets in one with the addition of Lazer's Z1-specific aeroshell (sold separately), which simply snaps into place to protect vented areas from the elements.
Available in multiple colors. Claimed weight is 275 g (size small).

Almost as good as the non-MIPS
by Otoman

I love the Z1 fit. I have always done well with Lazer helmets. This is my first MIPS version. It sits a little higher on the head than the non-MIPS version. It is close but just a little different. Probably not a deal breaker for most as the shape is the same, just the cradle doesn't quite have that Kask-like snug fit down around the occiput. Also, I bought the large as the large fit me well in the Z-1 non-MIPS. This one has just a little play in the tightest setting. FWIW I have a long oval head, Kask fits me a little better, POC is OK, Giro terrible.

Bought last summer as i replace helmets every two years or less. On a descent, early morning, hit something in the roadway and launched at 27 mph....front right side of the helmet absorbed the blow...a slight laceration on my eyebrow from my glasses...no facial bones or teeth broken. Broke clavicle, scapula and 8 ribs...rushed to hospitaltrauma center and CTscan 45 minutes of impact...no issues other than pain but had i not had MIPS, and the helmet, who knows....any helmet that does this is a good helmet....so, can't rate anything but 5 STARS.

Lazer Z1 MIPS Helmet
by Anonymous

4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.
after a lot of web based helmet research ( local LBS only carries 2 brands) I decided to move from Kask to Lazer.
the Z1 seems to be better like by most and I preferred the styling so I went with it. It is a great fitting helmet* lightweight and comfortable straps as well as great ventilation. The floating feel of MIPS ( this is my 1st MIPS) felt a little odd at 1st but I don't notice it any longer.
* in criticism of this helmet is the fit. My head is 57.5cm. This is unquestionably a Medium size and I wear medium in every other brand. I am a little disappointed that i have to adjust the fit dial to nearly the bottom of the adjustment screw for it to fit properly. I had to double check that this wasn't a large. It fits barely and is good enough but at least in this particular case the sizing seems to be a little off.

Extremely comfortable and supremely ventilated with clever sweat drip management
by Anonymous

My top consideration when selecting a helmet is ventilation and sweat management. This helmet hits top marks on both. Not only it boasts large vents, but in addition the sweat is cleverly channeled away from your eyes and your sunglasses. The Z1 is also very comfortable. By moving the adjustment mechanism away from the back of the head and to the top off the helmet it firmly anchors the helmet whereby it does not move under road vibration. This clever feature also adds ventilation be it is perceived or actual.

A solid 5-star rating for the best helmet out there.

When it became time to purchased a new helmet there was no decision, ... it was going be a Lazer Z1 in the cool hi-vis yellow. It's down to being comfortable, protected and being seen.

saved me from serious head injury
by nEverready

I ride 3-5 times a week on paved bike trails and road. I ride up to week long tours. This month (Sept 2020) I was riding the virtual Gold Star 500 when, due to a failure to communicate, I crashed with another rider at 20mph. We both went to ER. Me in an ambulance. Clavicle broken in two places, requiring surgery to plate and screw the pieces together. But no head injury at all! Even though my head bounced off the asphalt, my Z1 only had minor dings and not even a headache for me. Great product.

Love this helmet
by Badger
Cycling Enthusiast
Portland, OR
I love the Lazer helmets and this is my third one. Was pleased that this one has the MIPS shell protection. Got a size medium, fits perfetly. Love the top adjuster to make it tight and also the fact my pony-tail can go through the opening. I like the Z1 model and as others have indicated, the front doesn't impact my vision like some others.

Great fit, well ventilated
This helmet works for me better than the Bell with the undersized chin strap.
In the summer heat, this lid is provided great ventilation.

Great fit and well vented
1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.
I only have a handful of rides but its already hot enough in the mornings in Arizona to test out the air flow and flows more air through it than my previous Kask Protone. The fit is a bit different than the Kask, it hold firm onto my head but it just feels a little strange as it holds higher up. The rear retention system feels like it doesnt hold as firm but I couldnt shake it off my head with out the chin straps so it just feels a bit less secure but in actuality its absolutely fine. I also like the metallic greenyellow color, looks great and hopefully makes you more visible to drives

Comfortable and light weight helmet with GREAT safety reviews
by Chuck W.

I road bike for 1.25 hours (20+ miles) every other day as part of my workout regime. The helmet is comfortable and lightweight to the point that you don't even know it is there. And, the helmet has MIPS; Multi-directional Impact Protection System. Having gone done before I know how important it is to have a quality helmet.

Nice Helmet, Larger than Other Lazer
by Brad in the Wilderness
Cycling Enthusiast
Northern PA
Fortunately I've not had to test the impact protection that this helmet provides. I did have to return the original one that I purchased because it was too big. I like the way it sits on my head and there is clearance for my sunglasses. I purchased white for better visibility when I ride on our town streets and some of the local highways. Not a lot of traffic but I want to be seen from a distance.

Great MIPS helmet!
by Anonymous

I initially bought a different brand of MIPS helmet which I didn't like and returned. This one fits great and is really nice looking. The MIPS insert will make it feel slightly different than a conventional helmet, but was no issue. Very nice helmet and an added benefit of being even safer.

Best helmet I�ve ever purchased

I purchased the Lazer Z1 MIPS helmet this past summer and what a difference! The helmet is so lightweight and with all the air vents making rides comfortable. (I ride between 30-60 miles daily with a couple of century rides). It�s so easy to fit to your head if you�re wearing bandanna, Halo, or nothing. I added the back light to the helmet since I ride at night, a nice safety feature.
