The Giro Synthe Mips II Road Bike Helmet is an icon of road helmet design, combining the performance advantages of a compact profile with great cooling power and luxurious comfort for road and gravel riders.

An icon made even better

The Giro Synthe Mips® II is an icon, updated to be lighter and more comfortable than ever before. The compact design of the Giro Synthe MIPS II slips through the air with ease, yet offers impressive cooling power in a light-yet-durable design that's been a rider favorite for years now. The Giro Synthe II MIPS is packed with Giro's best features, including the Roc Loc 5 Air Mips fit system with 2-way fit tuning and Integrated Mips (the Multi-directional Impact Protection System), the market-leading system designed to redirect rotational forces away from the brain and provide more protection in certain impacts.

Features

• Roc Loc 5 Air MIPS Fit System - This revolutionary fit system adds a new dimension to helmet performance by enhancing cooling, as well as fit comfort and stability.  Using a patented design that suspends the helmet just slightly off the top of the skull, Roc Loc 5 Air Mips allows cool airflow to pass directly over your head, further enhancing the performance of vents and internal channeling that exhaust heat out of the helmet.  Fit and feel adjustments mimic the Roc Loc 5 MIPS, allowing you to easily custom tune fit tension and fore-aft tilt of the helmet in seconds using a single hand.
• Ionic+ Padding - Pure silver is the secret ingredient that gives Ionic+ the power to provide natural, permanent odor protection to keep your helmet feeling fresh.
• Integrated MIPS Brain Protection System - All Giro helmets are designed to reduce as much energy as possible while meeting and exceeding stringent safety standards.  The goal of Giro's integrated MIPS equipped helmets is to reduce rotational forces while enhancing fit and comfort by combining the MIPS slip plane with the helmet's adjustable fit system.  Giro believes that helmets equipped with this technology can reduce the amount of rotational force that may be transferred to the rider's brain in certain impacts.
• Roll Cage Re-Inforcement - Roll Cage is a light-yet-tough web of reinforcement invisibly molded inside a helmet's EPS foam liner.  It helps the helmet to hold together under impact, and provides an extra measure of strength and integrity that you'll never notice... unless you need it.
• Wind Tunnel Ventilation - Giro helmets are developed utilizing Giro's proprietary Wind Tunnel ventilation system.  This elaborate design combines active vents in the helmet's shell with exhaust channels inside the helmet that thrust fresh, cool air over and around the rider's head while forcing heat and stale air out.  It's the most effective cooling system available, and a difference you can feel every time you ride.
