The Giro Syntax MIPS is a bike helmet with a slim profile and slightly deeper coverage. It has a two-piece hardshell: a tough polycarbonate outer shell and a polycarbonate lower shell (In-Mold Hardbody lower wrap), both permanently fused to the EPS foam liner using Giro's In-Mold construction. This keeps the build durable and lightweight without excess bulk.
The MIPS brain protection system reduces rotational forces that may be transferred to the brain during certain impacts. The Roc Loc 5 Air MIPS fit system suspends the helmet slightly off the skull so air flows over the head. It adjusts with one hand, for both fit tension and fore-aft tilt.
Wind Tunnel ventilation uses active vents and internal exhaust channels to move cool air in and push heat out. The Ionic+ padding uses Pure Silver technology for permanent odor protection.
