Giro Ember MIPS Road Bike Helmet

The Giro Ember MIPS was specifically designed for lady cyclists. The design is based on the Giro Synthe. This cycling helmet offers roughly the same properties regarding weight, performance and style. The Ember is equipped with the Roc Loc 5 fit system which allows you to quickly adjust the fit horizontally and vertically. Air FX pads provide plenty of comfort during longer rides. The MIPS technology in this helmet better protects your head against falls. Additionally, this helmet leaves room for you to wear your hair in a ponytail. The Giro Ember MIPS is ideal if you want to hit the road with style!

MIPS System
The MIPS System consists of a low friction middle layer between the EPS lining and the padding, which is equipped with elastic fittings. This allows the helmet to move slightly (shift and rotate) relative to the head, which absorbs the lateral and rotational forces that occur during a crash. This is in contrast with a non-MIPS helmet, in which shock absorption is achieved through pressing in the EPS lining.

In-Mold Construction
The In-Mold Construction combines a sturdy polycarbonate outer shell with a shock-absorbing foam lining on the inside. Due to the fusing process it’s possible to create an efficient ventilation system, which allows the In-Mold helmets to be lighter and more cooling than traditional helmets.

Roc Loc 5
After more than 2 years of development, Giro introduces the new Roc Loc 5. This cutting-edge fit adjustment system offers a completely unique user experience with unparalleled levels of comfort, stability, adjustability, and weight saving measures. The Roc Loc 5 allows you to adjust the fit, tension, and vertical position of the helmet with a single hand. Tighten the dial a little during a challenging descent, and release a little for a more relaxed fit on a steep climb for instance! Even with all these new features, the Roc Loc 5 is almost 40% lighter than its predecessor, the Roc Loc 4.

Wind Tunnel Ventilation
Giro helmets were designed with the help of Giro’s Wind Tunnel ventilation system. This system combines active vents with internal exhausts. This combination provides the cyclist with cool, refreshing air on and around their head, while warm and stale air is disposed of. The innovation of these vents turned out to be a huge success. Cyclists were immensely positive about it, they noticed a new air flow around their head which kept them cool!
