Bell Catalyst MIPS helmet, black matte
The Catalyst MIPS racing MTB helmet is fully subordinated to speed - the round aerodynamic shape and low weight will cut precious seconds from your time at the finish line. We also focused on perfect ventilation. A total of 18 holes and special forehead ventilation will keep your head cool.
MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) provides increased protection against rotational forces on the head.
CLAMPING SYSTEM Float Fit
CONSTRUCTION In-mold Polycarbonate Shell, Internal Roll Cage
VENTILATION 18 holes, Overbrow Ventilation
SIZES S (52-56 cm), M (55-59 cm), L (58-62 cm)
MIPS IS A MOVEMENT
All Bell helmets are designed to absorb as much energy as possible during an impact and meet the applicable European standard: EN 1078. The goal of the new MIPS technology is to eliminate rotational forces that act on the head in the event of a fall. In an impact at any angle, the MIPS system allows the EPS shell of the helmet to rotate independently around the rider's head. Although this movement is only on the order of a few millimeters, we believe that MIPS technology significantly reduces the amount of rotational force that would otherwise be transmitted to the brain.
WHAT IS MIPS (multidirectional Impact Protection System) and how does it work?
MIPS is a slippery insert between the EPS shell (helmet body) and the inner linings. In the event of an impact at an angle (for example, when you catch your head on a branch), the EPS shell of the helmet rotates a few millimeters after the MIPS layer, protecting the head and brain from a violent rotational jerk.
