Giro Eclipse Spherical Mips helmet

The aerodynamic Eclipse Spherical is most sophisticated, stylish, and lightweight aero road helmet, it is the fastest road helmet ever tested

The Eclipse Spherical is both the fastest road helmet and the coolest aero road helmet Giro has ever created, bringing best technologies together in a light, compact form that's ideal for road and gravel racing. The sleek outer shell actively streamlines airflow to reduce drag across multiple wind angles, while 14 Wind Tunnel vents pull air through the helmet to provide incredible cooling power that rivals most aggressively vented road helmets. Inside, the ball-and-socket design of Spherical Technology is powered by the Mips® brain protection system, which allows the helmet's outer EPS foam liner to rotate around the inner foam liner during a crash to help redirect impact forces away from the brain. Progressive Layering of both the inner and outer liners help to offer more comprehensive protection, too. The patented Roc Loc® 5 Air system enhances stability and fit, and plush antimicrobial Ionic+ padding helps absorb sweat and moisture while providing durable antimicrobial performance.

Technologies

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.

Wind Tunnel venting system
Giro helmets are engineered with proprietary Wind Tunnel venting system. This elaborate design combines active vents in the helmet’s shell with exhaust channels inside the helmet that thrust cool, fresh air over and around the rider’s head while forcing heat and stale air out.

ROC LOC® 5.5  AIR FIT system
Using a patented design that suspends the helmet just slightly off the top of the skull, Roc Loc® 5.5 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 adjustments mimic the Roc Loc® 5, allowing you to easily custom fine-tune fit tension and fore-aft tilt in seconds using just one hand. Reflective decals provide added visibility.

IONIC+® PADDING
Pure silver is the ingredient that gives IONIC+® padding the power to provide permanent, natural odor protection to keep your helmet feeling fresh.
