Helmet with an integrated MIPS protection system, ABS outer shell and EPS foam.
MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) is a multidirectional impact protection system that can be used in helmets for various activities. It was developed to improve protection against side impacts in recreational and outdoor sports such as mountaineering, mountain biking and motorcycling. MIPS is a movable layer integrated into the inside of the helmet, close to the head. It is not firmly attached and can move back and forth by 10–15 millimetres. In the event of a side impact, this movement uses a sliding motion to help redirect the rotational forces acting on the head and brain. Therefore, helmets with an integrated MIPS system provide a higher level of protection than conventional helmets.
To choose the right helmet size, measure your head circumference. It is recommended to measure with a string approximately 1.5 cm above the ears.
Every UVEX helmet is carefully tested in a laboratory. The helmet complies with the EN 1078 standard.
