Product Spotlight: iXS Phobos Helmet

Canada’s Richie Schley is not just a freeride icon, he’s also a real outdoorsman; spending time with his friends out in the nature is important to him.  “If I can have loads of fun on my bike and shred some trails at the same time, that’s all the better," Schley adds, “At the same time, I’m all about having the right gear for the situation, so having iXS Sports Division as a partner is great as that is exactly what they offer.”

Richie’s choice regarding helmets is a proof that safety does not necessarily come at a high price. Despite its competitive price tag, the Phobos fullface helmet is available in a variety of colors and designs – and it comes with a lot of features that increase both safety and comfort. Its shock-absorbing polycarbonate shell features generous vents, adjustable visor, and the Double-D safety buckle.  The removable padding allows for washing and the total helmet weight is reasonable at approximately 1100g.

Richie Schley puts his trust in iXS. "I like to mountain bike, key word being MOUNTAIN! I love being outside with my friends in nature going for it on the trails and having a ton of fun at all times.  Isn’t that what life is all about?”
