Giro Helios Spherical Road Helmet (MIPS)Created for cyclists who seek the ultimate in performance-focused safety, the Giro Helios Spherical Road Helmet (MIPS) is packed with cutting-edge features to make your ride comfortable and provide effective crash protection.Whether you're mixing it up in a local race series, putting in some training miles or out to simply enjoy the thrill of riding fast, should you be unfortunate to crash, the Helios Spherical Road Helmet (MIPS) is designed to offer a high level of head protection. We hope you don't have to test its abilities but thanks to advanced construction and MIPS® Spherical Technology it's got you covered should you fall. MIPS® Spherical TechnologyThe Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head.Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions in oblique hits to the head. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head.Comfort is a BreezeWhen you're working hard on the bike, generating big watts and picking up the pace, sweat and heat build-up is inevitable. However, with 15 Wind Tunnel™ vents, the Helios offers a rush of cooling air over the scalp. Air is forced through internal channels to optimise the cooling effect and exhaust vents let damp, warm air out. The rush of speed is matched by the rush of ventilation.You'll also have the sweat-absorbing performance of Ionic+ padding. This anti-microbial padding prevents the sting of sweat from running into the eyes and stops an itchy scalp after a sweat ride. Roc Loc® 5 Fit SystemInside the Helios is the light and airy Roc-Loc® 5 Air fit system. This is the industry benchmark in comfort, stability, adjustability and weight savings. In addition to enhancing fit and comfort, Roc Loc® 5 allows you to easily custom tune the fit tension and the fore-aft tilt of the helmet in seconds using a single hand. And it’s lighter than comparable systems too, making it the ultimate in skull-hugging luxury.Features:Spherical Technology™MIPS® brain protection system Progressive Layering Nano-bead EPSIonic+™ anti-microbial paddingIndependent, In-Mould liners with a spherical ball-and-socket designFull lower Hardbody coverage15 Wind Tunnel™ vents and deep internal channellingRoc Loc® 5 Air adjustmentReflective decalsShop all MIPS helmets - Click hereBuy Giro Helmets from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
The heart of the Helios’ extraordinary design and performance is Spherical Technology, which utilizes a ball-and-socket design powered by MIPS®, the market-leading brain protection system that can help to reduce rotational forces. Spherical Technology allows the helmet’s outer liner to rotate around the inner liner during a crash, and also allows Progressive Layering of the inner and outer liners to provide more comprehensive protection and performance. In addition to advanced head protection, the Helios’ 15 Wind Tunnel vents provide exceptional cooling power that’s enhanced by our patented Roc Loc 5 Air fit system and plush, antimicrobial Ionic+ padding for exceptional sweat absorption.

Giro Insurgent SphericalIf you're one to continually push your boundaries of mountain bike riding, the Giro Insurgent Spherical, complete with Spherical Technology™ powered by Mips®, provides confidence-inspiring incredible levels of head protection. While you may not (yet) be riding Enduro World Series to Red Bull Rampage, you'll still benefit from the incredible protection offered by the Insurgent Spherical Full Face Helmet (MIPS). With so many cutting-edge safety features, the Insurgent offers you heavyweight protection, but it comes in at a remarkably modest weight, tipping the scales at just 1040 grams. Giro Mips® (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) x Spherical Technology™The Insurgent is made for mountain biking, and as such has to offer protection against a wide range of crash scenarios. And it's here that Giro's Spherical Technology™ proves its worth.The Spherical Technology™, powered by Mips®, sees two energy-absorbing foam layers, Giro's Progressive Layering, working akin to a ball and socket. This system allows independent movement between the layers, redirecting harmful impact energy during a crash and thus protecting your head.With one layer dealing with high-speed impacts and the other with low-speed impacts, the Insurgent addresses both those low-speed, roll-around-in-the-dirt-type spills and more adrenaline-pumping crashes. Ride Fast. Ride Cool. It's all very well being protected on the trails. But keeping cool while riding rowdy is also important. Wind Tunnel™ cheek pad ventilation and airflow intake vents and channelled ventilation maintain a rush of cool air to your head, keeping you cooler and fresher. Inside, the lightweight and soft-touch padding create a comfortable fit. And the Ionic+ anti-microbial prevents bacterial build-up, preventing stinks and itches. Roc Loc® Air DH Fit SystemA secure fit is easy to get with the Roc Loc® Air DH Fit System. Single-handed adjustment is via the twist dial, giving a custom fit every time. This system also slightly suspends the helmet off your head, further enhancing airflow. Two different cheek pads are included with each of the three sizes, allowing for a customisable fit, and are secured via a directional snap system allowing for easy removal in case of a crash.Additional FeaturesThe Insurgent also benefits from the Flex Gasket. This patent-pending feature along the lower edge is designed to reduce the effect of the helmet on collarbone impacts in a crash. Visor bolts are tool-free, with an integrated Allen key receiver for ease of removal. There's also an integrated bolt hole for the mounting of action cameras underneath the visor.

CONFIDENCE TO COMMIT From the Enduro World Series to Red Bull Rampage top riders demand the Giro Insurgent™ Spherical and the confidence it delivers. Our engineers maximized the intake points for cool fresh air resulting in cooling power 50% more efficient than the Disciple™ Mips®. A lightweight soft-touch and absorbent pad set includes two different cheek pads with each of the three sizes allowing for a customizable fit which are secured via a directional snap system allowing for easy removal in case of a crash. At 1040 grams in size M/L the Insurgent is 200 grams lighter than the Disciple Mips despite additional features including the advanced protection performance of Spherical Technology™. Insurgent Spherical utilizes a pair of different density EPP and EPS foam layers that work like a ball and socket to redirect impact energy in a crash. Additional features include a patent-pending Flex Gasket along the lower edge of the helmet designed to reduce the role a helmet can play in certain collarbone impacts tool-free breakaway visor bolts with integrated Allen key receiver for easy removal and a central visor bolt hole which does double-duty as the ideal mount for P.O.V. action cameras. WHAT IS SPHERICAL TECHNOLOGY? The unique ball-and-socket design of Spherical Technology utilizes two separate liners to help manage impact forces. The material and density of the inner and outer liners can be optimized with Progressive Layering to help manage a broad range of impact forces: the Insurgent features an outer EPS layer (to address high-speed impacts) and an inner EPP layer (with rebound characteristics designed to handle slower speed falls.) When you combine the benefits of Progressive Layering with the market-leading Mips® Brain Protection System which can help redirect rotational energy away from the brain you get more comprehensive protection. HOW DOES SPHERICAL TECHNOLOGY WORK? Developed at the Bell+Giro Dome laboratory in partnership with Mips® Spherical Technology’s unique Ball-and-Socket Design redirects impact forces bringing market-leading design performance and brain protection together without compromising comfort ventilation weight or style. STAY COOLUNDER PRESSURE We tested with our proprietary Therminator head form to measure helmet cooling efficiency and the results prove that Insurgent sets a new standard for full-face helmets. Despite added features and protection it has 50% greater colling efficiency than Disciple Mips (cooling measured from 100º starting temperature at with 25 mph wind speed).
