Features

  • 5-Star Virginia Tech Helmet Rating: The Loma earned the highest 5-Star Virginia Tech Helmet Rating from the internationally renowned Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.
  • Sunglass Storage: Intentionally designed eyewear storage keeps your glasses safely stowed when you need to get them out of the way during long climbs or moments of rest.
  • Ventilation: When it comes to ventilation, we made sure to incorporate key learnings and innovations from our premium S-Works helmets. The Loma features our 4D brow cooling technology as well as engineered internal channels to ensure your head stays cool when the ride heats up.
  • Mips: The Loma helmet features the Mips Essential Core system—a low-friction layer that allows a sliding motion of 10 to 15mm in all directions. Studies indicate that this helps reduce some of the rotational forces transmitted to the brain during angled impacts.
  • Precision, full-wrap polycarbonate shell for increased durability and premium finish.
  • FS3 Fit System and Occipital base adjustment personalizes fit for comfort and allows you to tune helmet angle to ensure that your helmet and eyewear stay perfectly synched.
  • The Loma helmet features our 4D Brow Cooling technology as well as large rear exhaust ports for added ventilation.
  • Adjustable Tri-Fix web splitter combined with thin 10mm webbing for increased comfort.
  • Weight: 290 g (Medium)

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.

Who are Specialized?

Specialized is one of the best-known quality bike brands in the world. Started by a group of riders in 1974. A fact which has guided their decision making ever since.

" Made for riders, by riders."

They strove to make the best quality tires when quality tyres weren't around. When people wanted to ride cruisers in the dirt, they made the first production mountain bike. When roadies wanted to go faster, Specialized doubled down on carbon and built their own wind tunnel.

Bikes like the Allez, Rockhopper and Stumpjumper have developed followings and reputations of their own. Specialized has a reputation for making high-end, high-quality bikes. Specialized bikes always look great with high-quality paint and sensible sizing hel0s you get the right bike each time. If you buy a Specialized bike you can be guaranteed it will do what it is supposed to and will last.
