When it comes to advances in helmet technology, Mips is arguably the big one. This Multi-directional Impact Protection System, spearheaded by a Swedish brand of the same name, has been designed to reduce rotational forces inflicted during an angular impact. It’s these sudden and slight movements of the head and brain that can cause devastating injuries.
What Mips technology provides is millimeters of “slip” thanks to a low-friction sliding layer that moves within the helmet during an impact. This transfer of energy, as proven through decades of extensive testing, compensates with just enough relative motion so that sudden rotational shocks to the brain are dramatically reduced. You’ve got a good head on your shoulders. Protect it with a Mips motorcycle helmet available now from Cycle Gear.Clear All
Spare a second today for safety and thank yourself later. When it comes to a MIPS motorcycle helmet, you are staying protected through proven technology. The Multi-directional Impact Protection System is the brainchild of a Swedish firm that worked in conjunction with KTH Royal Institute of Technology and the Karolinska Institute. What does it all mean for you as a safety-conscious motorcyclist? Simple: these design features mimic the body’s natural protection system, deflecting against rotational motion that can cause brain injury. Take the first step today, learn more about correct sizing from our friends over at Common Tread then shop the best MIPS motorcycle helmet options right here at Cycle Gear.
Core Design Features
What researchers discovered — and what today’s riders need to know — is that rotational impact in a spill is a huge danger. Motorcycle helmets that meet MIPS standards allow for just enough movement that’ll counteract rotational forces. Drilling down a bit deeper to explain just what is MIPS in a motorcycle helmet, the designers describe it as a “low friction layer, which imitates the brain’s own protection system and enables a relative motion between the head and the helmet.” Beyond the technical features, what’s great for riders is that many leading lid manufacturers offer helmets with MIPS construction alongside all the other innovative features you’ve come to expect. That means dirt and street riders can still shop their favorite brands, including Alpinestars, Answer, Klim, Thor and more, while scoring a helmet that goes a step beyond in the safety department.
Cycle Gear’s Safety Selection
An ounce of prevention, as they say, is worth a pound of the cure. MIPS motorcycle helmets most definitely fall into the former category so spend some time with our inventory and score exactly what you need. If you have any questions, reach out to Cycle Gear’s customer service team to find the exact helmet and other protective gear that’s right for you.
