4. Annex Helmet by Bell
When riding your bike to work, one of the biggest concerns—besides drivers who can’t stop texting—is sweat. Optimizing your gear to combat swamp ass and stinky pits is essential. Thanks to its Active Air system, Annex keeps your head cool. Its large back vent acts like a heat exhaust. A novel sliding vent on the top quickly opens up six large holes for a boost of cooling, but can slip shut in case the air gets chilly. The included MIPS (multi-directional impact protection system) makes sure your lid stays on nice and tight should you take a spill in the street.
