Source: summitbicycles.com (read 2026-09-22) · corroborated by universalcycles.com (read 2026-07-13). Lazer's own Sphere MIPS product page now redirects to a road-helmet collection (the model is superseded by the KinetiCore line), so the most spec-complete fetched page — Summit Bicycles, which reproduces Lazer's official spec block — is used as source and Universal Cycles as corroboration. Both fetched pages confirm this exact model: Lazer Sphere MIPS road helmet with claimed weight 280 g, 18 vents, and MIPS rotational protection; Summit additionally lists "CERTIFICATION: CPSC". The US MSRP is $149.99, stated explicitly as "MSRP: $149.99" on Universal Cycles and shown as the "$149.99" regular price on Summit (weight/vents further corroborated at 280 g / 18 vents by bicyclebuys for "Medium Black" and by road.cc's dated review, which weighed 280 g on its own scales). The corroborating page this record cited (https://www.universalcycles.com/shopping/product_details.php?id=111963) is gone: on 2026-09-11 it returned 404, both from a residential connection and from a datacenter on another continent — so the page is gone rather than withheld from one asker. This record therefore no longer claims an independent second witness for its figures. The page the figures were read from, summitbicycles.com, still answers.
