description Giro Aerohead Mips Overview
The Giro Aerohead MIPS helmet is an aerodynamic cycling helmet designed for speed and safety. It utilizes MIPS technology which reduces rotational impact forces by introducing a low-friction layer within the helmet’s construction. This makes it suitable for triathletes, time trialists, and serious road cyclists seeking enhanced protection during crashes or angled impacts.
help Giro Aerohead Mips FAQ
Is the Giro Aerohead Mips designed for road racing or time trials?
It is an aerodynamic helmet built primarily for triathlon and individual time-trial use. Its long-tail profile is less ventilated and less versatile than road helmets such as Giro's Aries or Eclipse.
Can the visor on the Giro Aerohead Mips be removed?
Yes, its wraparound ZEISS shield attaches magnetically and can be removed. The magnets also allow the visor to be stored flipped upward on the helmet before a race or during transitions.
What does Mips do inside the Giro Aerohead?
The Mips layer is designed to permit limited movement between the head and helmet during certain angled impacts. It is one component of the safety design and does not make the helmet concussion-proof.
Is the Giro Aerohead Mips legal for triathlon competition?
The Aerohead is widely used in sanctioned triathlon and time-trial events, but the specific helmet must carry the certification required by the organizer and country. Athletes should also check rules governing equipment and course temperatures before race day.
