Your weekend plans might include pedaling through long, winding climbs, snaking along exposed ridgelines, and flying down wild, challenging descents. If they do, ride with Giro's Montaro MIPS Helmet to protect your control center without weighing yourself down. Designed for long days spent on the trails, the Montaro is constructed with a durable In-Mold polycarbonate shell surrounding an impact-absorbing EPS foam body. MIPS, or Multi Directional Impact Protection System, is added to the innermost layer of the helmet in the form of a thin lining that rotates slightly upon impact to absorb the dome-damaging rotational energy created in certain crashes. Beyond safety, Giro ensures the Montaro won't slow you down by designing it to integrate with your other riding gear, including a built-in camera mount with a breakaway design to protect you and your device in the event of a crash. Giro's P. O. V. Plus visor adjustment system allows you to reposition the visor to accommodate full goggles, and strap grippers on the back of the helmet help keep the goggles in place. To keep the helmet from feeling cumbersome on hot days and long climbs, Giro created space for 16 vents with internal channeling for efficient air flow. The Montaro is lined with hydrophilic, anti-microbial padding that absorbs sweat and, together with the Roc Loc fit system, provides a comfortable, secure fit.
