Nearly a million Mojito helmets have sold since KASK introduced the original in 2012, making it one of the most recognized silhouettes in road cycling. The Mojito 3 represents a complete redesign rather than an incremental update, smoothing out the aggressive fins and busy shaping of earlier versions into a cleaner, more modern profile while retaining the distinctive tail that defines the Mojito lineage. The third generation helmet addresses the primary criticism of its predecessors—ventilation efficiency—through larger vents and redesigned internal channeling that improves airflow despite reducing the total vent count from 26 to 17.

Blue Tech padding lines the interior with a notably plush feel compared to the minimal foam found in KASK's race-focused helmets. The single-piece construction makes removal and washing straightforward, while the antimicrobial treatment resists odor buildup over extended use. Internal channels run front to rear, creating straighter airflow paths that KASK claims deliver more uniform cooling across the top of the head than previous Mojito versions achieved. The deeper channeling pulls air through rather than letting it pool at the front vents, which addresses the heat retention issues that plagued some earlier aero-influenced designs.

The Octo Fit retention system migrated down from KASK's more expensive Protone and Valegro helmets, replacing the simpler Up'N'Down mechanism of the Mojito X. A rubberized dial provides secure grip for on-the-fly adjustments, while floating cradle contact points with internal gel pads oscillate through 180 degrees to conform to different head shapes. The rear of the cradle pulls down approximately 6cm on its ratchet, allowing riders to position the skeletal brackets precisely where they provide the most secure grip on the skull.... Read More
