Giro Aether Spherical MIPS Road Bike Helmet HELMETS

From the elegant silhouette of its industrial design, to how this helmet
manages impact forces, the Giro Aether Spherical MIPS Road Bike Helmet is a testament to performance
innovation.

Inside the Aether Spherical, a dual-density EPS foam liner helps manage a wide
range of impact energies, while also boasting deep internal channeling to
provide cooling airflow. Giro’s proprietary Spherical Technology is integrated
between the layers of EPS foam, instead of against the rider’s head, giving
riders the benefits of MIPS® without obstruction to comfort or cooling
power. The stunning silhouette is formed by a sleek six-piece shell that
surrounds a series of massive vents, with added structural reinforcement via a
shatter-resistant AURA reinforcing arch. The final touch is a Roc Loc 5+ Air
fit system, featuring 3-way fit tuning, that allows for easy adjustment in
seconds.

Features

• DEEP INTERNAL CHANNELING – Combined with the massive vents,
  internal channeling forces air to flow over the scalp, providing remarkable
  cooling power.
• EYEWEAR DOCKING PORTS – Integrated eyewear docking ports
  with rubber grippers help to secure sunglasses.
• ROC LOC® 5 AIR FIT SYSTEM – This revolutionary fit
  system adds a new dimension to helmet performance by enhancing cooling, as
  well as fit comfort and stability. Using a patented design that suspends the
  helmet just slightly off the top of the skull, Roc Loc® 5 Air allows
  cool airflow to pass directly over your head, further enhancing the
  performance of vents and internal channeling that exhaust heat out of the
  helmet. Fit and feel adjustments mimic the Roc Loc 5, allowing you to easily
  custom tune fit tension and fore-aft tilt of the helmet in seconds using a
  single hand.
• SPHERICAL TECHNOLOGY – Spherical Technology’s
  Ball-and-Socket design, powered by MIPS®, helps redirect impact forces
  away from the brain by allowing the outer liner to rotate around the inner
  liner during a crash. It also eliminates contact with hard plastic or
  slip-planes against the skin.
• INTEGRATED MIPS® BRAIN PROTECTION SYSTEM – All Giro
  helmets are designed to reduce as much energy as possible while meeting and
  exceeding stringent safety standards. The goal of Giro’s Integrated
  MIPS®-equipped helmets is to reduce rotational forces, while enhancing
  fit and comfort by combining the MIPS® slip plane with the helmet’s
  adjustable fit system. 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.
• AURA REINFORCING ARCH – Structural integrity is bolstered
  by the shatter-resistant and translucent AURA reinforcing arch that runs
  throughout the helmet.
• PROGRESSIVE LAYERING™ – Helmets with Progressive
  Layering feature a dual-density liner designed to address high and low-speed
  impacts, for more comprehensive energy management.
