Product description of Giro Syntax MIPS helmet

Description summary

Conquer any ride with the GIRO Syntax MIPS helmet. Designed for long-range comfort and relentless performance, its slim profile offers deeper coverage for road or trail. The integrated Mips® Brain Protection System and Roc Loc™ 5 Air Mips system provide secure, adjustable fit and advanced rotational impact protection. In-Mold construction with a polycarbonate shell ensures durability and superior Wind Tunnel Ventilation keeps you cool. Ionic+® padding offers lasting odor protection. Experience ultimate safety and comfort

Long‐range comfort meets relentless performance and style with the Syntax™ Mips®. It has slightly deeper coverage and a slim design to keep you comfortable whether you´re riding on city roads or mountain trails.

The Syntax Mips® combines a touch of European flair with slightly deeper coverage and high‐performance features — all tucked into a very slim design. The fit is luxurious and secure, thanks to our highly adjustable Roc Loc™ 5 Air Mips system that allows you to customize fit and feel for great stability and long‐range comfort while providing an added measure of protection from rotational forces in the event of an angled impact. The outer shell is molded from a tough polycarbonate that´s fused permanently to the EPS foam liner using our In‐Mold construction process to enhance durability and ventilation without excess bulk.

Key Features:

Hardshell With In‐Mold Hardbody™ Lower Wrap:
- The two‐piece shell combines a tough outer hard shell with a polycarbonate lower shell permanently fused to the liner for durability without excess weight.

Integrated Mips® Brain Protection System:
- All Giro helmets are designed to reduce as much energy as possible while meeting and exceeding stringent safety standards. The goal of Giro´s Integrated Mips‐equipped helmets is to reduce rotational forces. Giro believes that helmets equipped with this technology can reduce the amount of rotational force that may be transferred to rider´s brain in certain impacts.

Roc Loc 5 Air Mips Fit System:
- This revolutionary fit system adds a new dimension to helmet performance by enhancing cooling; as well as fit comfort and stability. Using a patented design that suspends the helmet just slightly off the top of the skull; Roc Loc 5 Air Mips allows cool airflow to pass directly over your head; further enhancing the performance of vents and internal channeling that exhaust heat out of the helmet. Fit and feel adjustments mimic the Roc Loc 5 Mips; allowing you to easily custom tune fit tension and fore‐aft tilt of the helmet in seconds using a single hand.

Wind Tunnel Ventilation:
- Giro helmets are developed utilizing our proprietary Wind Tunnel™ ventilation system. This elaborate design combines active vents in the helmet´s shell with exhaust channels inside the helmet that thrust fresh; cool air over and around the rider´s head while forcing heat and stale air out. It´s the most effective cooling system available; and a difference you can feel every time you ride.

Ionic+® Padding:
- Pure Silver is the secret ingredient that gives IONIC+® the power to provide natural; permanent odor protection to keep your helmet feeling fresh.

Specifications:

- Material Composition: 62% EPS; 15% PC; 10% ABS; 4% POM; 3% Polyester; 4% Nylon; 1% Fiberglass; 1% PU
- Weight: 340g
- Certifications: Complies with the US CPSC Safety Standard for Bicycle Helmet for Persons Age 5 and Older.
