Giro Aerohead MIPS Aero/Tri Helmet

£289.99

The Giro Aerohead MIPS is for triathletes and time-trialists who demand a balance of aerodynamics and cooling power. It features an aerodynamically efficient profile, constructed with a lightweight polycarbonate shell. The Wind Tunnel ventilation and internal channelling keep you cool when the competition heats up. The Aerohead MIPS features a unique wraparound eye shield that offers an unblocked field of view and unrivalled clarity. A magnetic anchor attachment keeps the shield secure, yet easy to remove and store in the “flipped up” position, making for quick transitions to the bike. It is equipped with the MIPS system to redirect impact energy, which can provide more protection in certain impacts.

What is a MIPS helmet?

Let's start by clarifying the meaning of MIPS. MIPS stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System. Developed and owned, by a Swedish company that licenses the system to cycle helmet manufacturers. MIPS technology is very popular with Manufacturers.

What does MIPS do?

A Standard bike helmet protects you via a polystyrene shell which absorbs force and breaks apart. In a MIPS helmet, there is a liner that is in contact with your head and will move independently from the outer shell when there is an impact. This allows some of the force of the impact to be absorbed before the polystyrene shell takes the hit and reduces the level of shock to the brain. MIPS works best in angled impacts which is how many real-world crashes happen. Traditionally helmets have been designed for direct, head-on, impacts. So it is argued that a helmet with MIPS provides a greater level of safety in real-world conditions.
