Product Details

Clean aesthetic, comfortable fit, and a budget-friendly price—that’s what makes up the Align II. The standout feature of the Align II is the inclusion of the Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS), a patented technology designed to mitigate against rotational forces transmitted to the brain during certain angled impact scenarios. In addition, the Align II became the only $50 helmet to earn the highest Five Star rating from the independent testing done at the renowned Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.

When including MIPS and earning this Five Star Virginia Tech® Helmet Rating™ we didn’t give up any comfort—the Align II includes the Headset SX dial fit system for easy fit adjustment, our 4th Dimension Cooling System for incredible ventilation, and an easy one-size fit system. If you’re on the quest for a feature-rich helmet that leaves some jingle jangle in your pocket, the Align II is for you.

For helmets sold in the U.S. and Canada: Complies with U.S. CPSC Safety Standard for Bicycle Helmets for Persons Age 5 and Older.

  • Align II earned the highest 5-Star Virginia Tech® Helmet Rating™ from internationally renowned Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.
  • The MIPS system is a low-friction layer that allows a sliding motion of 10 to 15mm in all directions. Studies indicate that this reduces some of the rotational forces transmitted to the brain during angled impacts.
  • Easily-adjustable, one-size Headset SX fit system is designed for easy and accurate fit for a wide range of head sizes. Add in a micro-adjustable dial for on-the-fly adjustability and you're ensured an easy, secure, and accurate fit.
  • 4th Dimension Cooling System optimizes ventilation.
  • In-molded shell improves strength and reduces weight.
  • Reflective decals for increased visibility in low-light conditions.

Saved my life

I got T-boned by a car that ran a red and was going at 40mph a few days after buying this helmet. I flew 20 feet and my bike flew 50 feet. The helmet has massive cracks from both the inside and outside, but in terms of head injuries, I only had a minor concussion - compared to my other injuries, this was so minimal - especially since my head definitely hit the road and pavement several times. I'm so thankful and would definitely recommend. It was comfortable, looks cool, and saved my life.

Best MIPS helmet sub-100 bucks by far

I have a BIG head. XL of the Align II actually fits unlike many other helmets I've tried. Also, this is the #13 'safest' helmet in the 2023 helmet buyers guide and was only about $60 USD. Compared to most of the top 20, and basically all of the top 10 that were $150+ (or much more). Great value for the money. Also the black matte, gloss red paint job is a phenom!

Straps are a nightmare

I've no idea why Specialized raves about the straps. They're awful. There's only one way to adjust them, but the two straps above the Trifix bolt are the wrong length, so it's either fine on one and too tight on the other, or fine on one and too loose on the other. Really peculiar and unhelpful system.

Turbo Vado SL 4.0 Step-Through

The bicycle does everything well that it is supposed to do. However, I do have two issues: 1. The non-EQ did not come with a computer, but my dealer supplied one. For almost $4000 this should have been standard equipment; 2. There were none available in my size (S) at first, but five throughout the country did pop up on the Specialized website so my dealer grabbed one for me. I also was interested in the next model up but it, too, was unavailable. That said, I am very happy with the bicycle.

Great Value MIPS Helmet

I would recommend this helmet at this price 100% since it provides MIPS which is important for safety. In terms of fit, I went with a XL for my 24in head which fit perfect. The helmet is moderately breathable, but I could see this being on the warm side during the summer. One issue I have that prevents it from being a 5/5 is that the chin strap does not have something to tuck the extra material once you tighten it. This makes it flop around while riding and after hitting some bumps it did hit my ear a few times. It's not a major issue, but definitely would have liked something to tuck the extra material away.

On my fifth ride with this helmet, I had a horrific accident. My head hit the pavement. The helmet cracked, my head didn’t. I probably owe my life to the helmet.

SAFETY means being S E E N !!

Recently purchased one of these helmets. Now granted you certainly CAN spend more $$$ - but for a very reasonably priced helmet (with the MIPS feature ) this helmet does a very nice job ! Comfortable - Light - and is a great fit (for my head anyway :-) ONE reuest - could you include a new color ? Hi-Viz Orange (aka Deer Hunters Orange) as we do alot of our riding here in MICH in Oct - Nov - Dec (Mt Biking & Gravel riding) on dirt - 2 track - seasonal roads and Deer Hunting season runs from Oct 1 - Dec 31. And hunters are conditioned to looking for that ORANGE color.

The best $30-50 youll ever spend

This is a lightweight, comfortable, stylish helmet. none of that matters though: what matters is this helmet cost $30 and held up on a 30mph head first downhill road impact. i never even lost consciousness. i ordered a new one while i was sitting in the ER. If youre on a slim budget, this is the *only* helmet worth considering.

I am normally used to a kask helmet so I use a medium so when i looked at the diameters of this helmet, it showed similar size to a m/l for the align but when I got it was too thin to fit securely around my head so i had to get an xl and put the headset all the way to its lowest setting and it doesn't feel as secure as a helmet should fit.

Align II helmut saved my life

I was in a serious bike accident on July 25th. The cyclist behind me told the EMIs that my front wheel got caught in a submerged streetcar track. I have no memory of the accident. I suffered 3 cracked ribs, bruised left lung and a concussion. I live in Toronto Canada. As I write this, I am still a patient at the Brain Injury floor of the Toronto Rehabilitation Institute. I am told that I'm doing very well and might get out next week. Sounds ominous, I know. I am a 61 year old woman who is here to say that the Align II helmut saved me. I could be eating food through a tube if it hadn't been for my new helmut. The hemut suffered a scratch above my left ear and it appears slightly pushed in but it's really hard to see. Virginia Tech rates it #14 overall out of 200. I will be replaing this helmut with another HighVis/sm-med Align II helmut.

Best Safety for Price

My process for choosing this helmet was simple. Virginia Tech publishes a safety ranking list, and this particular helmet is the safest one at a comfortable consumer price point. It also happens to be a good fit, with easy adjustments and a comfortable foam that feels both protective and non-abrasive. The white color way is bold, easy to clean, and easily seen by other riders and nearby vehicles.

Seriously comfortable!!

I just got this helmet, but I have about 6 or 7 helmets, so I know what is and is not comfortable. Sometimes the back dial has something that rubs on the back of my head. Not this one. Sometimes a helmet is either too loose or too tight. Not this one. It fits perfectly and the padding at the front really feels nice on my forehead. The helmet is very lightweight, as well, and the way the straps fit down below my ears are just perfect. I just wanted a helmet to match my new bike. It matches, but I'm going to wear it all the time because it's almost like wearing nothing at all. Also, I saw the recommendation to size down. I'm glad I did not. I got the XL because my head measured near the top of the Large. It fits PERFECTLY.

Helmet is broken after second try!

Hello! I have purchased my first bike and helmet from your website a few months ago as a Christmas present for me. Now, when it’s getting warmer I started to use them. Unfortunately, after second attempt to wear my helmet I noticed it’s broken in front of it. Exactly where the logo it is, a little bit down. Now, I’m very disappointed how fragile this thing is, without even falling off. My helmet was new, I kept it in my garage in its original box and I was really careful about it. I don’t know how that even happened.

For the price and design

For the price and design with the MIPS, this is probably the best for the buck. It weighs very light and the neck strap and the adjustments are fine. Color and look are pretty good. The reason i gave it a 3/5 because of the fit. I ordered M/L for a 58cm head. After adjusting it, the helmet falls short by pressuring my b/l side of the temporal. It is just not comfortable to wear so i returned it. So if your measurement is on the high end of the size they listed, size up!

Love the look of the helmet, eye catching and matches my bike. It is extremely well put together and at this stage better than the other helmets I own. Sadly I have managed to test out whether it is crash proof already and can confirm that it definitely saved me from what would have been a nasty head injury when I came off last week. Highly recommend. Just wish my legs were as happy as my head is.
