Its key benefit is the integration of the 2Vi technology platform and MIPS Air for superior impact protection in a lightweight design.

The 2Vi technology platform combines MIPS Air, multi-density EPS foam, and a variable elasticity shell to provide enhanced protection against a wider range of impact forces, including both low- and high-speed crashes.
STACC (Stack Ventilation) uses carefully positioned intake and exhaust vents to create a direct airflow path across the forehead and over the head, effectively drawing heat away and preventing overheating.
While engineered for road cycling, its advanced protection and ventilation could offer benefits in other disciplines where head protection is paramount. However, its aerodynamic profile is optimized for road speeds.
Many internal pads are removable and can be hand-washed with mild soap and water. Always allow them to air dry completely before reinserting them into the helmet.
The Sweet Protection Falconer 2Vi MIPS Helmet weighs approximately 285 grams, contributing to its lightweight and comfortable feel.
Due to the advanced fit system and aerodynamic design, wearing a cycling cap underneath may affect the fit and effectiveness of the helmet. It is generally recommended to wear the helmet directly on your head for optimal performance and safety.
It is recommended to replace your helmet every 3-5 years, or immediately after any significant impact, even if no visible damage is apparent. Materials degrade over time and with exposure to elements.
Adjust the 360° Occigrip fit system dial and the height adjustment mechanism until a secure and comfortable fit is achieved. Ensure the chin strap is properly tensioned.
Ensure sunglasses arms are fully retracted and align the temples with the designated slots. Some sunglass designs may fit more securely than others.
Adjust the strap length and position of the strap divider so it sits comfortably below the ears. Ensure the buckle is not digging into the skin.
Setup: The helmet is designed for immediate use. Adjust the 360° Occigrip system by turning the dial at the rear to achieve a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure the straps are correctly positioned and fastened. The height adjustment on the Occigrip system can also be modified for optimal comfort.
Compatibility: This helmet is compatible with most standard cycling eyewear. The integrated eyewear storage is designed to securely hold sunglasses when not in use.
Care: Clean the helmet using a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the helmet's materials. Ensure the helmet is completely dry before storing. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Check regularly for any signs of damage, especially after an impact.
