Giro Artex Cycle Helmet (MIPS)

Safety First

Wherever your bike takes you, be it the quiet hum of smooth tarmac through to challenging gravel adventures or even flowing XC mountain bike trails, the Artex Cycle Helmet (MIPS) is packed with features to keep your head covered in event of a fall. 

It starts with the In-mold construction and Full hardbody™ wrap. This sees a shock-absorbing core of EPS foam wrapped in a tough two-piece hard shell outer. In the event of a crash, this core soaks up impact forces to protect your head, while the tough polycarbonate shell adds durability without adding excess weight. 

The fusion process also allows Giro to sculpt better ventilation systems, so In-mold helmets can be lighter and cooler than traditional helmets.

MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) 

As you'd expect, all Giro helmets are designed to not only meet but also exceed stringent safety standards. And with MIPS you enjoy an extra level of brain-protecting technology, designed to redirect energy and provide more protection in certain impacts.

The 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.

Feel the Rush

Heat and sweat are quick to build when cycling. But here the Wind Tunnel™ ventilation of the Artex comes into play. This system has carefully positioned vents, bringing in fresh air to the front where it meets internal exhaust channels that thrust cool, fresh air over and around your head while forcing heat and stale air out. This significant increase in air channeling makes a difference that riders will immediately feel and appreciate.

Roc-Loc® 5 Air fit system

The Roc-Loc® 5 Air fit system is an industry benchmark in comfort, stability, adjustability and weight savings. Firstly, it allows for a quick and precise way to get both a comfortable and secure fit, with fore-aft tilt and single-hand dial adjustment. 

Next, it allows unrivaled airflow, the design suspending the helmet just off your skull, allowing cool air to flow easily over your head and maximizing the performance of the vents and inner air channels.  And it’s lighter than comparable systems too, making it the ultimate in skull-hugging luxury.
