How MIPS Technology Enhances Safety

• INTEGRATED MIPS® BRAIN PROTECTION SYSTEM — All Giro helmets are designed to reduce as much energy as possible while meeting and exceeding stringent safety standards. The goal of Giro's Mips®-equipped helmets is to reduce rotational forces. Giro believes that helmets equipped with this technology can reduce the amount of rotational force that may be transferred to the rider's brain in certain impacts.

Key Design & Fit Features

• ROLL CAGE REINFORCEMENT — Roll Cage is a light-yet-tough web of reinforcement invisibly molded inside a helmet's EPS foam liner. It helps the helmet to hold together under impact; and provides an extra measure of strength and integrity that you'll never notice ... unless you need it.
• WIND TUNNEL VENTILATION — Giro helmets are developed utilizing our proprietary Wind Tunnel ventilation system. This elaborate design combines active vents in the helmet's shell with exhaust channels inside the helmet that thrust fresh; cool air over and around the rider's head while forcing heat and stale air out. It's the most effective cooling system available; and a difference you can feel every time you ride.
• ROC LOC® 5 AIR MIPS FIT SYSTEM — In addition to helping to optimize stability and cooling airflow through the helmet; the micro-adjustable ergonomic and compact dial allows riders to adjust vertical positioning and tune the contact points independently for a customized fit with exceptional comfort.
• IONIC+® PADDING — Pure Silver is the secret ingredient that gives IONIC+® the power to provide natural; permanent odor protection to keep your helmet feeling fresh.
• ROC LOC® 5 AIR FIT SYSTEM — In addition to helping to optimize stability and cooling airflow through the helmet; the micro-adjustable ergonomic and compact dial allows riders to adjust vertical positioning and tune the contact points independently for a customized fit with exceptional comfort.
• MATERIAL COMPOSITION - 51.3% EPS; 21.4% PC; 6.3% Nylon; 1.9% POM; 2.7% Polyester; 10% PP; 4.6% Fiberglass

Benefits of Wearing a Bike Helmet

Wearing a bicycle helmet is important for several reasons. First and foremost, a helmet serves as protective gear for your head, helping to reduce the risk of severe injuries in the event of an accident. When riding a bicycle, there is always a chance of falling or colliding with another object, and a helmet can absorb some of the impact that comes from such incidents. This can help prevent injuries such as concussions or other traumatic brain injuries, which can have long-lasting effects on your health and well-being.

Many states and territories have laws or regulations requiring cyclists to wear helmets, and complying with these laws not only keeps you safe but avoids having to pay a significant amount in fines. Best to keep that money for the coffee shop!
