The bicycle helmet hasn't changed in 40 years.
Same shell. Same foam. Same bulk.
N1neo fixes that — world's first semi-soft, flexible helmet with Linear Response Protection. Serious safety. Sleek urban profile.
This is what commuting deserves. 🚲

SOME CRASHES END ON THE STREET. OTHERS FOLLOW YOU HOME.
A broken bicycle can be replaced. A broken collarbone will usually heal. But a concussion can be different. You may walk away from the crash. You may even look perfectly fine. And still, something has...

The post-EPS debate is not about rejecting the past.
It is about refusing to let the past define what protection can become.

The urban rider is not always chasing speed.
They are going to work.
Crossing town.
Living their day.
The helmet should be designed for that reality.

Many people believe in helmets.
They just do not want to wear the ones available to them.
That is not only a communication problem.
It is a product challenge.

At Newton-Rider, this is the question we started with:
What if the next helmet category is not built around hard EPS logic?
What if it responds differently?
That is the work.

The shift to cargo bike logistics is great, but it requires a parallel shift in infrastructure.
When you replace a delivery van with a cargo bike, you are moving freight capacity from the road to the bike lane. If you don't expand the bike lane to handle it, you're just creating a bottleneck.

The future of safety is design — not decoration.
We created the N1neo to prove that protection can be sleek, elegant, and human.
Its timeless form conceals patented technology that redefines impact absorption.
Semi-soft couture, sculpted for purpose — making the helmet an intelligent desire.
