Synthe MIPS II Helmet

Giro Synthe MIPS II Helmet

The Giro Synthe MIPS II Helmet features some design tweaks to make it even cooler and more comfortable than the original while retaining its iconic aesthetic and tremendously high levels of protection.

The main body has a slim profile that is pleasing to the eye and that slips through the air with minimal drag. The construction of the main body is realised in EPS closed-cell foam that is reinforced with a thermoformed SL Roll Cage. These components combine to shield the head from heavy, direct impacts but remain lightweight to avoid straining the neck muscles on longer rides. Further protection is afforded by the innovative MIPS internal liner that pivots independently from the rest of the helmet to shield the brain from angled strikes and glancing blows.

An in-mould exterior shell construction protects the EPS body from dents, scuffs and scrapes to extend the helmet's lifespan markedly. This shell is punctuated neatly by 19 broad vents that channel a cooling airflow across the scalp during hot riding conditions.

A highly adjustable Roc Loc 5 Air retention system teams up with anti-microbial padding to clasp the head comfortably without causing any pressure points. Soft straps secure the helmet and are fastened by a svelte, low profile buckle.
