The Abus Taipan helmet features lower-edge protection, an adjustment system and ventilation channels.
Technical specifications
- Lower-edge protection: the polycarbonate (PC) outer shell covers the lower edge of the helmet and protects it from scratches, impacts and signs of wear.
- Ponytail Fit: an opening in the height-adjustable adjustment system makes the helmet suitable for long hairstyles such as ponytails, buns or braids.
- Front Eyewear Port: a defined recess at the front of the helmet lets you position glasses securely and aerodynamically while riding.
- Acti Cage: foamed-in structural reinforcement allows larger ventilation openings while maintaining high stability.
- Reflector Sticker: helps improve visibility in the dark.
- Forced Air Cooling: ventilation openings are connected by channels inside the helmet, guiding incoming air through it to ensure air circulation and a comfortable head climate.
- Rechargeable magnetic rear light (optional): the separately available light attaches to the back of the helmet with magnets and can be charged using a USB-C cable. It is intended to improve visibility.
- Zoom Spin adjustment system: a rotary wheel at the back of the head allows the helmet to be adjusted to the wearer’s head size.
- Flow Straps: aerodynamic straps reduce air resistance and noise while providing high wearing comfort.
- Floating Pad: pads inside the helmet are secured at several attachment points. This makes them more flexible and provides better ventilation and greater wearing comfort.
- Removable, washable pads: they can be removed and hand-washed or replaced if necessary.
- Push-in buckle: the straps use a classic three-pronged chin buckle for safe and practical fastening and release.
- In-mould process: the inner cushioning material made of expanded polystyrene (EPS) is foamed directly into the polycarbonate (PC) outer shell, creating a durable and robust connection.
- Weight: 295 g.
