Description
The Giro Aether MIPS Matt Black Road Helmet is unlike any helmet you’ve seen. With an elegant silhouette and unique industrial design, while managing impact energy, it is a true testament to performance innovation. The Aether MIPS combines airy, open design with a revolution in rotational energy management to advance head protection for cyclists.
Giro Aether MIPS Matt Black Road Helmet Features
The Aether MIPS features Spherical Technology, powered by MIPS. It features eyeglass grippers and independent, In-Mold liners with Spherical Ball-and-Socket design. The helmet is six-pieces forming the polycarbonate Hardbody lower shell with an AURA reinforcing arch. It features 11 Wind Tunnel vents with internal channeling and CoolFit anti-microbial padding.
Progressive Layering
Giro Aether MIPS helmets feature Progressive Layering. This dual-density liner design addresses high and low speed impacts for more comprehensive energy management.
Deep Internal Channeling
The Aether MIPS combines deep internal channeling with massive vents. This forces air to flow over the scalp and provide remarkable cooling power.
Eyewear Docking Ports
Whether you need glasses or you want to shield your eyes during bright, sunny days, the Aether MIPS has you covered. It features integrated eyewear docking ports with rubber grippers to help secure sunglasses.
Spherical Technology in the Giro Aether MIPS Matt Black Road Helmet
Powered by MIPS, Spherical Technology’s Ball-and-Socket design helps redirect impact forces away from the brain. This also allows the outer liner to rotate around the inner liner during a crash. As a result, this can help eliminate contact with hard plastic or slip-planes against the skin.
Integrated MIPS Brain Protection System
All Giro helmet designs focus on reducing as much energy as possible while meeting and exceeding stringent safety standards. The goal of Giro’s Integrated MIPS is to reduce rotational forces while enhancing fit and comfort. This is done by combining the MIPS slip plane with the helmet’s adjustable fit system. Giro believes that helmets equipped with this technology can reduce the amount of rotational force that may be transferred to the rider’s brain in certain impacts.
AURA Reinforcing Arch in the Giro Aether MIPS Matt Black Road Helmet
The structural integrity of the Aether MIPS is bolstered by the shatter resistant and translucent AURA reinforcing arch that runs throughout the helmet.
Roc Loc 5 Air Fit System
The revolutionary fit system from Giro adds a new dimension to helmet performance. It enhances cooling as well as fit, comfort and stability. The patented design suspends the helmet just slightly of the top of the skill, allowing cool airflow to pass directly over your head. This further enhances the performance of vents and internal channeling that exhausts heat out of the helmet. The fit and feel adjustments mimic the Roc Loc 5 so riders can easily custom tune fit tension, as well as the fore-aft tilt of the helmet in seconds with a single hand.
