Sweet Protection FLUXER MIPS Bike Helmet

Airy, airier, FLUXER: With the FLUXER MIPS bike helmet by Sweet Protection, you can enjoy steep climbs even on hot days. The manufacturer's own STACC ventilation system comes with generous vents and strategically placed air channels – ideal for cycling holidays in the south and coffee breaks in summer.

Perpendicular ribs throughout the interior of the helmet provide added impact protection, while the proven MIPS system in the Air Node version reduces rotational forces in case of an impact. With the 360 OCCIGRIP fitting system, you can adjust the height and width of the bike helmet for an ideal fit. Especially handy – Cleverly placed silicone prints and embossed temple channels allow you to fasten your cycling eyewear on the front of your helmet.

Highlights & Technologies:

MIPS: WHAT IS MIPS?
MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) is a slip-plane system within the helmet. It is designed to rotate inside the helmet and thus slow down or reduce the impact energy acting on the brain, which helps reduce head injuries caused by rotational impacts.
WHY IS MIPS IMPORTANT?
When a head rotates quickly and comes to a sudden stop, the rotational acceleration may cause the brain tissue to experience high levels of strain. This stretching of the tissue caused by these motions may result in various types of brain injury. MIPS is designed with the intent to address rotational acceleration from impact.
HOW DOES MIPS WORK?
MIPS uses a slip-plane system that moves inside the helmet, mimicking the brain’s own protection system. This layer is designed to rotate inside the helmet with the intent to potentially slow down or reduce the amount of energy transferred to or from the head. Science tells us that if we can reduce the strains associated with rotational acceleration, we might reduce the risk and severity of brain injury.

360 OCCIGRIP:
The fitting system creates a customised fit that can be easily adjusted on the go with the help of the dial. The sizing system runs completely around your head on a horizontal axis. Thanks to its slim design, it is barely noticeable and yet particularly effective. In the 360 version, the Sweet Protection system also has an on the fly height adjustment for an even better fit.

STACC:
The ventilation channels in this helmet extend from the front to the back of the head. They are positioned in such a way that air is channelled along the superficial temporal artery in particular. The five letters stand for “Superficial Temporal Arteries Cooling Channel”. In this way, the air flow cools the head for a long time and ensures a pleasant feeling on hot days.
