Giro Cartelle MIPS Helmet Matte Iceberg S

Description

It meets the same safety standards as higher priced helmets, sacrificing slightly on weight to meet a more friendly price point. You've finally been convinced by your own curiosity and wise instincts to give mountain biking a try. Whether you're coming from the road side of things or not, having a dirt-specific helmet is helpful, as it'll give you more protection along the back of your head where you're more likely to get whacked by a tree branch or rock. It's not fail-safe, but it's a lot better than helmets of five years ago were. Understanding that trail riding includes a whole lot of climbing, Giro carved 14 vents into the Cartelle, making sure you'll have consistent airflow while you sweat. In addition to a solid, lightweight In-Mold shell, the Cartelle also comes with the added protection of MIPS. Spin the dial of the Roc Loc 5 fit system to hone in on the exact fit you want with one hand, and enjoy a plush, breathable ride with Coolmax padding along the helmet's interior. MIPS, or Multi Directional Impact Protection System, refers to a thin basket added to the helmet's interior, which rotates slightly upon impact to absorb some of the dangerous rotational energy generated in certain crashes.
