S-Works Evade 3

The most aero road helmet in the peloton now breathes better. The S-Works Evade 3 was reinvented from the inside out to cool better, making it the fastest choice for more stages.

Through extensive Computational Fluid Dynamics and Win Tunnel testing, we created a rear “diffuser” that helps minimize drag and improve ventilation. The diffuser helps optimize aero performance by allowing air to release easier and improves ventilation by drawing 10% more air through the helmet at a given speed.

The Occipital Base Adjustment optimizes comfort by personalizing fit to individual head shape and helmet angle can be adjusted for compatibility with glasses. An adjustable Tri-Fix web system gives riders added comfort with updated, thinner 10mm webbing that minimizes strap noise.

Our ultralight and supremely comfortable MIPS Node Air technology is integrated directly into the helmet padding, with a sleek low friction layer designed to dissipate rotational forces. With Specialized’s proprietary development work, we added perforations to maximize breathability, performance, comfort, and weight savings.

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.

great fit and light

My current helmets are all Mtn specific but I do still have a couple of +10 year old road helmets before I left the dopers for the dirt. while I haven't yet rode outside with the helmet yet, I did wear it around the house and did a virtual ride with it (and a fan) to compare it against my other helmets. From the start I realized it was very comfortable by just placing it on my head. I found it as light or lighter than the 2 other helmets. During my short virtual ride, I wore it to see if it worked with all my sunglasses. It was awesome. I rocked my head around as if I was on a bumpy road and the helmet did not knock against the frame of my glasses. fyi, years ago, I tried teh MIPS technology and found it made the helmet bounce around and hit my sunglasses. The new Mips and this helmet did not bother any of my current vision protection. I can't wait to take it to the dirt/gravel after Wyoming's roads are clear.

Most comfortable helmet ever!

Bought this helmet for the aero features and was surprised by how comfortable it is. I've come to expect aero helmets to be less comfortable than my traditional helmets. This was love at first ride!

Like it’s not even there

Best helmet I have ever had! Historically, I would rarely wear a helmet because I found them pretty uncomfortable and I rarely went on the road or mountain biking, but when I got a road bike I felt it was necessary to be 100% complaint. I’m glad I shelled out the extra money for this one. Lightweight, easy to adjust, and you will likely forget that your wearing it.

Big round head - the search is over

I have fairly big round head, measuring around 62cm in circumference. After trying many helmets from different brands in this category, I tried the Evade III last, assuming based on reviews it would be too narrow. Surprisingly, it fit great. Can't say for sure whether I was lucky to find a round fit (not Classic), as the box doesn't say, but I think it is one of these. I applaud Specialized for offering helmets for people with rounder, bigger heads. Ventilation, comfort and adjustability are all very good, but of course subjective. The price may seem steep, but when you are someone with a big round head living in a Western country, where mostly narrow helmets are sold, finding a good quality helmet that fits comfortably and safely is like finding gold. Worth every penny. I have the blue one, which looks much shinier and darker than the pictures indicate.

Helmet saved me

Purchased an Evade II for the 2021 and 2022 Trans Am Bike Race. Excellent fit and great air flow for cooling on hot days. Fast forward to summer of 2023. Was involved in a serious crash where I was ejected from my Roubaix and thrown across the hood of a truck. Landed on my head and shoulder. I believe this helmet saved me from severe brain trauma or worse. I attribute this to the excellent design and snug fit of the helmet. Thank you Specialized for the excellent product and R&D that went into this. Unfortunately, my beloved Roubaix was snapped in half in the accident, but that's another story.

Sleek helmet

Little bit pricey for how I was expecting it to look, so idk if it’s necessary worth 300$. I’m happy with it overall and don’t regret throwing down the extra cash. Don’t think I’m going to use the mips app thing. Also, yeah the front of the helmet could come down a little bit more to make it look cooler..

Would Recommend?
Yes!
