Technology
MIPS®
The MIPS Brain Protection System is designed to reduce rotational motion transferred to the brain from angled impacts to the head. The system uses a low-friction layer inside a helmet that allows a multi-directional movement of 10-15mm on certain angled impacts, intended to help reduce rotational force to the head for enhanced safety.
D3O®
D3O’s inserts provide advanced breathable armouring for protection when mountain biking. D3O use non-Newtonian materials that stiffen on impact to dissipate impact energy and reduce transmitted force, before returning to their flexible state making them ideal for our range of protectors. D3O’s lightweight, low-profile designs and soft, flexible properties make their inserts an unobtrusive and comfortable high performance protector.
Koroyd
Integrated within helmets, Koroyd’s welded tubes are designed to crumple instantly and consistently on impact, absorbing maximum force in a controlled manner, minimising energy transferred to your head. This unique behaviour helps to protect your skull and brain from direct and angled impacts which may reduce the risk of suffering a life-changing injury.
DropSeat™
DropSeat features in a number of our women’s bibshorts and is designed to allow quick and easy comfort breaks without the need to strip off jerseys and jackets. The bib construction combines wide elastic crossover back straps and a supportive high wicking front mesh panel to holds the shorts in place when riding and allows them to be easily pulled down when nature calls, without the need for a zip.
