\u201cIn 1985, Giro pioneered the aerodynamic helmet with the original Advantage,\u201d said Rob Wesson, Giro Director of Helmet R&D. \u201cThe Aerohead MIPS is our fastest helmet ever and represents the culmination of everything we have learned over the past 30 years. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIn addition, we have been able to integrate MIPS to provide more protection in certain impacts, as well as including the Roc Loc Air\u00ae fit system and hydrophilic padding to improve ventilation and cooling. \u00a0With its combination of reduced drag, MIPS, and increased comfort, the Aerohead MIPS simply wouldn\u2019t have been possible only a few years ago. \u00a0By utilizing a TeXtreme\u00ae carbon fiber shell for the Aerohead Ultimate MIPS, we were able to further reduce frontal area, making our fastest shape ever even faster.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Aerohead Ultimate MIPS proved 3 seconds faster over 40km than Giro\u2019s previously class-leading helmet, the Selector. \u00a0The Aerohead MIPS, which features additional ventilation for longer courses such as triathlons, is 14 seconds faster over 180km while thermodynamic testing also show it to be nearly 10 % cooler than the Aerohead Ultimate MIPS.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The Aerohead Ultimate MIPS has already been raced to victory on both the road and track by the world\u2019s top professionals, including Rohan Dennis (BMC) who\u00a0used it for the stage one time trial around Utrecht in the 2015 Tour de France, which he won. Top professional triathletes including Linsey Corbin and Andreas and Michael Raelert will compete in the Aerohead MIPS this summer.<\/p>\n
