MT is a Spanish helmet maker known for its range of budget helmets. The MT is an off-road helmet with a thermoplastic shell and multi-density padding for shock absorption. It’s got a few nice touches like integral (but removable) peak for increased aerodynamics, and a goggle strap channel moulded into the shell with anti-slip channels to stop the goggles shifting when you’re getting physical. It’s also got good ventilation with something MT call Active Flux 360 ventilation system – not sure that’s much more than vents at the front and an exhaust at the back to bring air over the skull – but most manufacturers like to give fancy labels to these things. It’s got some essentials for the active off-roader though – removable and washable lining and aluminium screws make cleaning it inside and out a bit easier.
The MT Synchrony isn’t yet SHARP tested though previously tested MT helmets have performed pretty well scoring between 3 to 5 stars – so we’d expect this one to be pretty safe. It’s ACU approved (so can be used on the track) and ECE 22.05 approved.

Just bought one of these in the same size as my old lid and it’s a very, very tight fit trying to squeeze it onto my head – anyone know if this is an issue with MT helmets and their sizing being inaccurate, or is it the padding?
Hello! And yes, I allways used M size in almost every brand, and today I tested the M of this and it hurts my skull! So I guess the sizes are like smaller thant the average.
