Glasses specialist Oakley presented a new mountain bike helmet at Eurobike, developed together with DH professional Greg Minaar. The Oakley DRT5 has a number of unique features, first and foremost a clever holder for your glasses.

The most striking feature of the new Oakley DRT5 is the “Eyewear Landing Zone,” which fastens your glasses on the top of the helmet. The DRT 5 also features MIPS and a BOA FS1 fastening system. In addition to the DRT5, Oakley also presented a new line of clothing for mountain bikers.
