Key Features:
-
Spherical MIPS Technology:
The Spherical MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) is integrated into the Eclipse helmet to provide advanced protection from rotational forces during crashes. Unlike traditional MIPS systems, the Spherical design allows for an even more seamless integration, providing superior protection without adding weight or sacrificing comfort. It works by allowing the helmet to move around the inner foam liner, reducing rotational forces that can lead to brain injuries during angled impacts. -
Lightweight Polycarbonate Shell:
The polycarbonate shell of the Eclipse Spherical helmet is designed to be lightweight yet incredibly durable. This construction helps maintain aerodynamics while keeping the overall weight down, allowing riders to focus on performance without being weighed down. -
EPS Foam Impact Protection:
The EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) foam provides excellent impact protection by absorbing and dissipating energy in the event of a crash. It offers a high degree of safety while keeping the helmet lightweight and comfortable for extended rides. -
Advanced Ventilation System:
The Eclipse Spherical features 14 vents and strategically placed internal channeling to optimize airflow through the helmet. This comprehensive ventilation system ensures that air moves efficiently across the rider’s head, keeping them cool and dry even during intense rides and hot weather conditions. -
Tuned Fit System:
The Giro Tuned Fit System allows for a precise, adjustable fit, ensuring the helmet stays snug and secure on the rider's head. With a customizable fit and a comfortable retention system, the Eclipse Spherical helmet accommodates different head shapes and sizes, offering a secure fit without any discomfort. -
Aerodynamic Design:
The aero-efficient design of the Eclipse Spherical ensures that the helmet provides minimal drag while maintaining high levels of ventilation. Its sleek profile helps reduce wind resistance, making it an ideal choice for competitive cyclists, time trials, and high-speed riding. -
X-Static® Anti-Microbial Padding:
The helmet's interior features X-Static® anti-microbial padding, which helps manage moisture, reduce odors, and keep the helmet fresh over time. This moisture-wicking material is designed for comfort and helps regulate temperature, ensuring the rider stays cool and dry. -
Easy-to-Adjust Chin Strap:
The adjustable chin strap allows for a personalized fit, ensuring the helmet stays in place during high-intensity rides. The strap is simple to adjust, offering a snug and secure fit without causing discomfort or irritation. -
Integrated MIPS Spherical Inner Liner:
The inner MIPS spherical liner is specifically designed to work seamlessly with the helmet’s structure, providing additional protection against rotational impacts while remaining unobtrusive and lightweight. -
CPSC, CE, and AS/NZS Certification:
The Giro Eclipse Spherical helmet meets or exceeds multiple safety certifications, including CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission), CE EN1078, and AS/NZS 2063. This ensures that it provides reliable, high-performance protection for a wide range of riding conditions. -
Sleek and Modern Aesthetic:
The Eclipse Spherical is designed with both performance and aesthetics in mind. The helmet features a sleek, minimalist look with a premium finish that appeals to cyclists who want both functionality and style. The helmet’s low-profile design enhances aerodynamics while maintaining a sharp, professional look.
