TSG PREVENTION MIPS SOLID COLOR MTB Bike Helmet

The PREVENTION MIPS SOLID COLOR by TSG is inspired by the design language of the Sentinel full-face helmet and comes with a revised concept for open enduro helmets. The MTB helmet is a real game changer and impresses with a comprehensive coverage of its open profile. It also scores points with the proven MIPS impact protection, a shock-absorbing dual-density EPS inner lining, removable ear protection and a flat fit. Optimised side panels provide even more comfort and an ideal fit, even on bumpy downhill sections. What’s more, they offer outstanding protection. The bike helmet is particularly lightweight for effortless shredding. Its fit is fully customisable thanks to the DIAL FIT & TUNED FIT SYSTEM. When the tracks get a little rougher, the zone ventilation and a clever airflow system ensure a cool head.

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 IT 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.

IN-MOULD:
With the IN-MOLD construction, the robust polycarbonate outer shell is bonded to the impact-absorbing EPS inner shell in a single operation while it foams. This makes the helmet even more resistant without adding weight. This production process also makes it possible to shape significantly better ventilation systems and vents. IN-MOLD helmets are therefore lighter than traditional helmets and have significantly better ventilation systems.

LOW FIT:
A helmet only protects what it covers. TSG’s LOW FIT sits deep and protects the entire back of the head and the sides of your head, without restricting your field of vision or your movements.

DIAL FIT:
The DIAL FIT system makes it easy to make individual size adjustments within seconds. Via the dial on the back, the helmet can be individually adjusted to the head circumference for improved stability.

AIR FLOW:
Vents with air flow channels: The innovative AIR FLOW ventilation system ensures ideal air circulation and reduces unpleasant heat accumulation in the helmet. The air channels are designed to conduct fresh air over and around the head and, at the same time, let stale air out.

TUNED FIT:
The fitting system allows the rider to adjust the fit with comfort paddings of different thickness inside the helmet. Generally, these helmets are delivered with two sizes of comfort paddings.
