Triad MIPS Helmet

Mips, or Multi-directional Impact Protection System, is a safety technology designed to reduce the rotational forces that can occur during a crash. It features a low-friction layer inside the helmet that allows it to slide relative to the head upon impact. This sliding motion helps absorb and redirect some of the energy from the impact, potentially lowering the risk of brain injuries. Choosing a helmet with Mips can significantly enhance your safety while riding.

Zonal Koroyd is a unique material used in helmet construction that consists of small, tubular structures. Upon impact, these structures crush and spread the force over a larger area, effectively absorbing impact energy. This design helps to minimize the amount of energy transferred to your head during a collision, making helmets with Zonal Koroyd a safer choice for riders.

The VaporFit system is an adjustable fit mechanism that allows you to customize the fit of your helmet easily. It typically includes a dial that tightens or loosens the helmet around your head, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit. A proper fit is crucial for both safety and comfort, as it helps keep the helmet securely in place during rides.

The AirEvac System features multiple vents designed to promote airflow within the helmet. This ventilation technology helps keep your head cool and comfortable by allowing heat and moisture to escape, which is especially beneficial during long rides or in warm weather. A well-ventilated helmet can enhance your overall riding experience.

The Ionic+ Antimicrobial Lining is designed to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi, which can lead to odors and discomfort. This lining also wicks moisture away from your skin, keeping you dry and comfortable during use. Helmets with Ionic+ lining not only provide a fresher experience but also contribute to better hygiene while riding.

Helmets equipped with advanced safety features like Mips and Zonal Koroyd offer enhanced protection against head injuries. Mips reduces rotational forces during impacts, while Zonal Koroyd absorbs and disperses impact energy. Investing in a helmet with these technologies can significantly increase your safety on the road or trail, making it a smart choice for any rider.
