No Peak (Skull Cap)
Removing the peak transforms the Smart Nova into a clean skull-style helmet, commonly preferred for cross country riding. This configuration offers maximum visibility and a lightweight feel, while maintaining the same certified protection and secure fit.
-
Cross Country Peak
The cross country peak provides additional protection from sun and rain while remaining lightweight and streamlined. Designed specifically for fast-paced riding, it offers practical coverage without restricting vision or adding unnecessary bulk.
-
Regular Peak
The regular peak offers a balanced, modern profile suited to everyday riding across all disciplines. Its streamlined shape provides subtle sun protection while maintaining a clean, elegant appearance that works equally well for training and competition.

Polo Peak
The polo peak features a wider, more traditional profile, offering increased sun coverage and a distinctive, classic look. It is a popular choice for riders who prefer a more substantial peak while maintaining the lightweight comfort and versatility of the Smart Nova.
