Hi guys
I'm almost decided to bu the lazer anverz for my ebike.
I have just one concern.
Both in the official website https://www.lazersport.com/en/adult-hel ... z-nta-mips and hollandbikeshop.com they states that a led light is included in the back part of the helmet. Can you confirm it?
Another question...I saw on the web one version with ear pads. Is it an older model?
Thanks for the help!
Ps. Actually I like the Giro Bexley and Camden too. But about the first one I don't like the fact that the eye shield is not completely transparent/clear since I drive mostly at night time during the fall/winter (I live in Norway...). About the second I'm not super convinced about the light battery. I have been reading that is lasts just 2 hours...
The first batches did not have the rear light (mine dates from May 2018 and doesn't, I was one of the first persons to buy this helmet), but later versions do.

This is the older, non-NTA-8776 version. I checked this with product owner Shimano last year: they had to give up on the ear pads in order to get the NTA-8776 approval.
One of our forum members did manage to buy the earpads separately and mounted them on his NTA-8776 helmet, so they do fit if you want them:

Thank you so much for your reply!
Do you know something more about the light?
Is it a rechargeable one, if so does it last more than a couple of hours?
Just one curiosity, I saw that the GIro Camden weighs almost the double of this Lazer...
Is it something directly proportional to the schock absorption in your opinion? Thanks again!

I don't know, because my Lazer Anverz doesn't have the light. You may want to ask Shimano, or wait until somebody who does have the helmet with light comes by in this topic.

That's hard to judge. The weight difference will be caused by the fact that the Giro Camden has a closed shell and the Lazer Anverz has not (so simply less material). They both have MIPS and they are both NTA-8776 approved, which means that they are officially suitable for use on 45km/u e-bikes. So on paper, they both sound fine to me.

I use a Lazer Anverz MIPS with the little LED light.
The LED uses small battery wich you replace once it losts its power.
Don't know yet how many hours it will run but I suppose I will last quite long and the small battery is cheap.
Well be carefull to dispose it in the right way for environment protection

Thanks! I guess this is the helmet that suits me better. Sturdy but not extremely heavy.
