As Specialized celebrates our 50th Anniversary and the innovation that has helped inspire riders around the world, we look forward to the next 50 years of innovation.

The most versatile road helmet in the peloton, the S-Works Prevail 3 Forward 50 LTD represents this commitment to keep cycling around the planet by innovating for cyclists. Gold represents our 50th anniversary and how our desire to improve peoples lives through cycling hasnt lost one bit of its shine.

Pink is reminiscent of our historic Team Stumpjumper and our commitment to racing with an irreverent, rebellious spirit. With limited supply worldwide, they represent the ultimate expression of the innovate-or-die attitude that has inspired Specialized for the past 50 years and continues to drive us into the future.

The S-Works Prevail 3 helmet is perfect for riders who value the comfort and thermoregulation that comes with superior ventilation. It’s the ultimate all-round helmet that excels in hot conditions, gruelling climbs and mountainous stages.

In a never-ending quest to push the limits of ventilation, weve eliminated the air-blocking foam bridges in the center, creating air channels that increase ventilation surface area by 24.5% compared to the S-Works Prevail II Vent helmet. The new S-Works Prevail 3 has the largest ventilation surface area of any helmet weve ever made.

When a helmet takes an impact, its job is to dissipate the energy of the impact. The conventional approach to helmet design is that more foam (EPS) means better energy management. We rewrote the book on cycling helmet design by innovating beyond foam. Woven aramid cables run through the helmet and anchor to carbon fiber side panels. In the event of an impact, AirCage* technology acts as a suspension bridge and is designed to distribute localized forces throughout the helmet.

Occipital Base Adjustment optimizes comfort by customizing the fit to individual head shape, and the helmet angle can be adjusted to be compatible with glasses. A Tri-Fix adjustable strap system offers riders increased comfort with updated, thinner 10mm straps that minimize strap noise.

Our ultra-lightweight and supremely comfortable MIPS Node Air technology is integrated directly into the helmets padding, with a sleek, low-friction layer designed to dissipate rotational forces. Using Specializeds own development work, weve added perforations to maximize breathability, performance, comfort and weight savings.
