Giro Eclipse Spherical Cycling Helmet

The Helios Spherical Synthe MIPS II, Aether Spherical Cinder MIPS, and Eclipse Spherical are all cycling helmets that offer exceptional protection and comfort. These helmets feature a range of advanced technologies and design elements to provide the wearer with a superior level of safety and performance.

At the core of these helmets is the MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) technology, which is designed to redirect impact energy and provide more protection in certain types of impacts. The MIPS system features independent, in-mold liners with a spherical ball-and-socket design, allowing the inner and outer shells to move relative to each other, helping to absorb and dissipate impact forces.

The Helios Spherical Synthe MIPS II features a polycarbonate shell with a hardbody lower shell, offering a robust and durable construction. The in-mold construction and thermoformed SL roll cage reinforcement further enhance the helmet's strength and impact resistance.

The Aether Spherical Cinder MIPS boasts a six-piece polycarbonate hardbody lower shell, with an Aura reinforcing arch and nanobead EPS foam for added protection. The in-mold construction and MIPS-equipped design work together to provide superior impact management.

The Eclipse Spherical is equipped with a four-piece polycarbonate interlocking hardbody shell and full hardbody wrap, ensuring comprehensive coverage and protection. The integrated MIPS system and in-mold construction enhance the helmet's ability to redirect impact energy.

All three helmets feature wind tunnel vents with deep internal channeling, allowing for efficient airflow and improved ventilation to keep the rider cool and comfortable during intense riding sessions. The number of vents varies, with the Helios Spherical Synthe MIPS II and Eclipse Spherical having 15 and 26 vents, respectively, while the Aether Spherical Cinder MIPS has 19 vents.

Designed for a unisex fit, these helmets employ various fit systems, such as the Roc Loc 5 Air, Roc Loc 5+ Air, and Roc Loc 5 Air MIPS, to ensure a secure and personalized fit for the wearer.

In terms of weight, the Helios Spherical Synthe MIPS II weighs 270g (size medium, CPSC), the Aether Spherical Cinder MIPS weighs 275g (size medium, CPSC) or 265g (size medium, CE), and the Eclipse Spherical weighs 270g (size medium, CPSC and CE).

All three helmets are certified to meet the U.S. CPSC safety standard for bicycle helmets for ages 5 and older, as well as the European CE EN1078 standard.

Additional features include reflective decals for enhanced visibility, EPS/Air-FX or EPS/CoolFit padding for comfort, and the Spherical Technology, powered by MIPS, for superior impact management.

In summary, the Helios Spherical Synthe MIPS II, Aether Spherical Cinder MIPS, and Eclipse Spherical cycling helmets offer a compelling combination of advanced safety technologies, superior ventilation, and a comfortable, customizable fit, making them ideal choices for cyclists seeking top-notch protection and performance.
