Giro claims the Eclipse Spherical Helmet to be the fastest road helmet they have ever created. It is the result of over three decades of Giro’s aerodynamic testing and design. This helmet has been tested in the wind tunnel to find the ideal shape for aero performance. The 14 vents on the helmet result in aerodynamically optimized airflow while simultaneously cooling the rider’s head. Giro’s Wind Tunnel air vents are designed to guide air across the head and properly exhaust heat. In addition to its best in class aerodynamics, the Eclipse remains lightweight and compact, making it perfect for longer rides and races. Proper protection is the most important part of any helmet, and the Eclipse Spherical Helmet keeps riders safe. It uses Progressive Layering which uses lower density EPS foam closer to the head and higher density foam near the outer layers. This helps to safely dissipate energy along a wide range of impacts. The helmet’s two-piece design addresses rotational forces through Spherical Technology. The classic MIPS system allows the outer layer of the helmet to rotate to properly deal with these rotational impacts. It does all of this without sacrificing comfort, sweat management, or fit. A Roc Loc 5 Air Fit System is even featured on the back so riders can dial in their precise fit. The Giro Eclipse Spherical Helmet is simply one of the fastest and safest on the market.
