The Manta Mips® is a helmet that defines MET’s aesthetic and highly contemporary designs. It’s as brilliant as the original but with sharper looks, and it feels more cutting-edge. The Manta Mips® is more aerodynamic than its predecessor thanks to its lower tube-shaped profile at the rear, which we developed with specific wind-tunnel testing in the NEWTON laboratory of Milan. Featuring the MIPS-C2® rotational management system, the MET Manta Mips® is able to slide relative to the head in the case of a crash, redirecting damaging rotational motion. Mips® is a brain protection system—engineered to add at least 10% extra safety to the standard construction of helmets in case of certain impacts. The Mips Brain Protection System (BPS) is attached inside the helmet, between the comfort padding and the EPS. The Fidlock® magnetic buckle makes it easier and faster to fasten the helmet. The feature effectively reduces triathlon transition times. Despite being primarily an aero helmet it is also well ventilated. We’ve engineered the internal shape to channel the air and MET’s signature NACA Vent works in synergy with the specially positioned exhaust ensuring a constant airflow through the helmet, without catching the wind and creating drag. It features two dedicated ports for securely docking sunglasses. Beyond its technical prowess, the Manta Mips® is also exceptionally comfortable. The 360° head belt ensures that there will be no pressure points on the skull and it’s internal shape is inspired by the award-winning MET Trenta 3K Carbon.
