Specialized S-Works Prevail 3 Helmet: Engineered for Ultimate Ventilation The Specialized S-Works Prevail 3 helmet is perfect for riders who value comfort and the thermoregulation benefits that superior ventilation provides. This helmet is the ultimate all-around option, excelling in hot conditions, strenuous climbs, and mountainous stages. We have an unceasing quest to push the limits of ventilation. For this reason, we eliminated air-blocking foam “bridges” from the helmet’s center, effectively creating thru-air channels. This increases the surface area of ventilation by 24.5% compared to the S-Works Prevail II Vent helmet. Consequently, the all-new Prevail 3 helmet has the most ventilation of any helmet we have ever made. Innovative Safety with AirCage Technology When you impact a helmet, its job is to dissipate that energy. The conventional approach is that more foam (EPS) means better energy management. We rewrote the book on helmet design by innovating beyond foam. Woven aramid “cables” traverse the helmet, and we anchored them to carbon fiber side panels. Upon impact, the AirCage technology* works like a suspension bridge and is designed to distribute localized forces throughout the helmet. This groundbreaking approach ensures superior protection for the rider. Precision Fit and All-Day Comfort An Occipital Base Adjustment optimizes your comfort by personalizing the fit to your individual head shape. Furthermore, you can adjust the helmet angle for compatibility with glasses. An adjustable Tri-Fix web system gives riders added comfort with updated, thinner 10mm webbing that minimizes strap noise. The ultralight Mindset micro-dial fit system, which has height adjustability, was updated for improved grip and reaction. This allows for easy adjustments on the go. MIPS Air Node Technology – Specialized S-Works Prevail 3 Helmet We integrated ultralight and supremely comfortable MIPS Node Air technology directly into the helmet padding. It features a sleek, low-friction layer designed to dissipate rotational forces. Through our proprietary development, we added perforations to maximize breathability, performance, comfort, and weight savings. Therefore, the MIPS system works with the helmet’s ventilation, not against it.
