GIANT Rail SX MIPS MTB Helmet

Give yourself the confidence to crush it. Whether you’re making the crux move on a technical climb or bombing down steep, rocky terrain, you need full protection to perform at your peak. Awarded a five-star rating by the world-famous Virginia Tech Helmet Safety Lab, the Rail SX features an integrated MIPS Brain Protection System and a lightweight, highly ventilated design to keep you safe, comfortable and in control when you’re pushing your limits. Features: - Trail-specific maximum enduro coverage EPS construction; 3mm lower (Front), 3-5mm lower(sides), 8-10mm lower (back) - MIPS Brain Protection System optimized design - AirFlow ventilation combines 18 straight vents with straight, non-tapered walls to guide airflow through deep internal channels to keep riders cool at variable speeds - Removable moto-style extended protection visor mounts cleanly to the sides and is infinitely adjustable on the move - Integrated strap clip on the rear keeps goggle straps in position and prevents them from falling off during a crash - Low-speed and high-speed impact-tuned construction with Direct Support vents, optimized low-density EPS, and ultra-thin toughened polycarbonate shells all in-mold bonded together - Element Strap System (ESS) brings together Cinch One Pro™ fit system, adjustable locking dividers, and LiteForm™ webbing into one fit and retention system for superior fit and comfort right out of the box - Cinch One Pro™ fit system offers 360-degree coverage and positioning with secure, adjustable height for full protection, support and comfort - Lightweight LiteForm™ webbing wraps around for a more secure fit - TransTextura Plus™ anti-microbial padding helps fight bacteria growth by pulling sweat from a rider’s head and transferring it through the AirFlow vents. The natural property of the fabric inhibits microbes that cause odors - Dual-position integrated mounting surfaces, GoPro™ curved mount compatible for cameras and the Giant Recon light system Specifications: - Weight: 360g - Certifications: CPSC/CE;AS/NZS Technology: MIPS: - The Mips BPS (Brain Protection System) is designed to add protection in helmets against the rotational motion. The rotational motion is a combination of rotational energy (angular velocity) and rotational forces (from angular acceleration) that both affects the brain and increases the risk for minor and severe brain injuries. Mips BPS has been scientifically proven to reduce rotational motion when implemented in a helmet by absorbing and redirecting rotational energies and forces transferred to the brain. TransTextura™: - Permanent denier gradient transfer technology uses capillary action to pull moisture away from the skin to the fabric surface for rapid evaporation and quick drying. TransTextura Plus™: - All of the benefits of TransTexura™ with the addition of anti-microbial functionality to help neutralize bacteria that causes odors. - Anti-microbial - Anti-odor Virginia Tech 5 Star Rating: - In collaboration with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, Virginia Tech have rated a total of 128 bike helmets using the STAR evaluation system. The bicycle helmet impact tests evaluate a helmet´s ability to reduce linear acceleration and rotational velocity of the head resulting from a range of impacts a cyclist might experience. Helmets with more stars provide a reduction in concussion risk for these impacts compared to helmets with less stars.
