Overview

What Sets the S3 Apart from Every Other 100% Shield?

The 100% S3 is the result of combining the best elements of two proven frames into one. It borrows the understated brow line from the S2 and the signature intake ventilation ports from the iconic Speedcraft, creating a shield with a subtly softened angularity that still communicates unmistakable performance intent. The geometry gives riders a wider field of view with slightly more airflow than a traditional closed shield, which matters on hot climbs and humid race days when fog and heat buildup become real issues.

The S3 is available in four colorways including the HiPER Blue Multilayer Mirror lens for high-contrast performance in variable conditions, and the HiPER Red Multilayer Mirror for riders who want maximum contrast and depth perception across a range of light. The Soft Tact Grey Camo and Soft Tact White colorways broaden the aesthetic range without sacrificing any of the technical performance that defines the S-series lineup. For cyclists who want the Speedcraft's pedigree in a frame with a bit more nuance, the S3 is the answer.

How does the S3 ventilation improve performance?

The intake ports pull from the Speedcraft design to channel airflow across the inner lens surface. This reduces fogging during hard efforts and heat buildup during long climbs, keeping your vision clear when your output is highest.

What is the difference between HiPER Blue and HiPER Red lenses?

Both are high-definition contrast lenses. HiPER Blue is optimized for overcast and variable conditions, enhancing depth perception in flat light. HiPER Red delivers stronger contrast in brighter conditions and is a versatile all-day option for most road and gravel environments.

Is the S3 suitable for riders who run hot?

Yes. The vented shield design makes the S3 a better choice than a closed shield for riders who generate significant heat or live and train in humid climates. The airflow through the intake ports meaningfully reduces the fogging that plagues closed shields on intense efforts.
