Review for Louis Garneau Women’s X-Lite Helmet – 2015

Louis Garneau introduces the lightest helmet on the market. Through patent pending U-Bar technology, U-shaped ribs that are folded six times create a complex exoskeleton to reinforce the helmet’s structure. A super lightweight helmet stabilizing device is fitted with the webbing system and can be fully adjusted using only one hand. Super MSB technology is a ring-shaped protection at the base of the helmet to reinforce the perimeter for enhanced protection. All of these details make the X-Lite helmet not only seconds saving, not only ultra light, but they make the helmet safe and do not compromise the need for protection.DETAILS: Certifications: CPSC-ASTM-CEN-AS 2063* Vents: 37 Weight: 6.9 oz/195 g In-Mold construction Super MSB technology: Ring-shaped plastic protection at the base of the helmet reinforces the perimeter for enhanced protection U-Bar technology: Highly inspired by the Exo-Nerv technology, the plastic shell is made with U-shaped ribs (plastic is folded 6 times) that act as a complex exoskeleton to reinforce the helmet’s structure Ringlock: Frame ring that ensures the helmet’s integrity in the event of impact Evacuation channels: Moisture evacuation channels provide better airflow and moisture wicking Spiderlock SL: Very light, the stabilizing system works jointly with the straps for a perfect fit.

Review for Giro Savant Helmet – 2018

Authentic style and performance, with unmatched value. The Savant is an amazing fit for riders who enjoy great routes as much as a swift pace. The slim shape combines impressive ventilation thanks to 25 Wind Tunnel vents, and the comfortable convenience of the adjustable Roc Loc 5 fit and stability system. And with the light weight and durability of In-mold construction, it won’t weigh you down. Roc Loc 5 fit system In-mold polycarbonate shell with EPS Liner 25 Vents IN-MOLD CONSTRUCTION In-mold construction fuses a tough polycarbonate outer shell with the helmet’s impact-absorbing foam liner. The fusion process allows us to sculpt better ventilation systems, so In-mold helmets can be lighter and cooler than traditional helmets.

Review for Bell Array Helmet – 2015

With its low-profile styling, massive ventilation and incredible comfort, the Array stacks up to many helmets costing twice as much. It’s a great choice for road riders seeking a versatile, no-nonsense performer that looks as good as it feels. And Array doesn’t skimp on features, either. It includes Bell’s Channeled Ventilation, Twin Axis Gear fit system and Cam-Lock levers. It all adds up to a great-looking helmet that’s comfortable enough to let you focus on the raod up ahead.Suggested Use: Road Race; Cyclocross; Triathlon; Enthusiast Road; Touring TAG Fit System – Bell’s next generation Twin Axis Gear fit system adjusts to the head on two axes – circumferentially as standard fit systems do, but also vertically to better accommodate differences in the up/down position of the occipital lobe. For added comfort we’ve co-molded the system arms with soft rubber and positioned them higher to better accommodate eyewear. The result is the most adjustable, comfortable and easy-to-use fit system ever. Fusion In-Mold Microshell – In-molding is the process of bonding the helmet’s Microshell to its EPS foam layer to provide a sturdier, more solid helmet. The EPS foam is shot into the thin Microshell cap when it’s in the mold – thus the name – rather than formed separately and taped on later. This process was pioneered by Bell and is now the industry standard for all high-end helmets Internal Reinforcement – In order to maximize venting and minimize bulk, this helmet features internal reinforcement structures. These composite skeletons fortify the helmet the same way rebar makes concrete stronger, allowing for bigger vents, more advanced styling and lighter weight, while still meeting stringent safety standards. Channeled Ventilation – Specially designed ventilation channels on the interior of the helmet’s liner brings cool air in through the front, passes it over the head and flushes warm air out of the rear ports. Cam-Lock Levers – Bell’s Cam-Lock strap levers make it easy to adjust the straps around your ears. Simply open the cam…position comfortably and close the lever. Done. CoolMax Padding – This Material moves perspiration away from the body, where it evaporates quickly, allowing the rider to feel cooler and more comfortable. Registered Graphics

Review for Louis Garneau Le Tour MIPS Cycling Helmet – 2018

We recommend the Le Tour MIPS helmet for anyone who enjoys safe leisurely bike rides both on the road and in the forest. This helmet offers head protection worthy of high-end models, but for a very low price. It is equipped with MIPS technology, a system that protects your head in case of a fall no matter the angle of impact. The MIPS system is shaped like a plastic shell located inside the helmet, which moves inside the helmet structure upon impact to absorb part of the energy. In other words, the MIPS reduces the rotational forces inflicted to the head. The versatile Le Tour MIPS helmet is easy to adjust and its visor can quickly be removed so you can shape it to your needs and head out for your ride with peace of mind. Construction: In-Mold, 19 vents. Inner evacuation channels. Ringlock frame ring that ensues the helmet’s integrity. MIPS Multidirectional Impact Protection System Stabilizing system: Spiderlock Solo II Straps: Steplock adjustment Padding: Airdry, washable and sealed for enhanced durability Reflector decals: Safety first! Reflective stickers will make you more visible near motorists. Visor: Le Tour, specifically designed for the Le Tour helmet. The V-Pro system, a receptacle molded into the helmet, allows installing and removing the visor as often as desired. Removable plastic plugs are included to fill the holes when not used Certifications: CPSC-ASTM-CEN 10.6 oz.

This fusion process reinforces areas around vents and ribs, creating a one-piece exoskeleton that allows the helmet to be lighter, more durable, and better ventilated than helmets with shells that are fastened or adhered to the liner. Roc Loc 5 Fit System – The industry benchmark in comfort, stability, adjustablity and weight savings. In addition to enhancing the fit and comfort of helmets, Roc Loc 5 allows you to easily custom tune the fit tension and the fore-aft tilt of the helmet in seconds using a single hand.

Review for Giro Women’s Sonnet MIPS Cycling Helmet – 2018

The Sonnet is a favorite in our Women’s Series collection, offering acclaimed fit and performance for riders who enjoy great routes as much as a swift pace.

And with the light weight and durability of In-Mold construction, it won’t weigh you down. Sonnet MIPS models are available with the Multi-Directional Impact Protection System. We believe MIPS can redirect energy and provide more protection in certain impacts.MIPSAll Giro helmets are designed to reduce as much energy as possible while meeting and exceeding stringent safety standards. The goal of Giro’s 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. Learn more about MIPS in the video above.WOMEN’S SERIESThe Women’s Series is a diverse collection of helmet styles, fits and prices tailored to the demands of female riders. While the level of detail and range of colors is unique within the Women’s Series helmets, they do not feature a unique “women’s fit.” That’s because there is no anatomic difference between women and men’s heads except for the average skull diameter measurement. And since Giro helmet sizes cover 98% of the human population, we believe the Women’s Series offers more options to women than any other brand.ROC LOC 5 FIT SYSTEMThe industry benchmark in comfort, stability, adjustability and weight savings.
