Giro Foray Mips Road Helmet

Product Information

This leads to a higher probability of achieving a comfortable fit for more head shapes and sizes and helps promote airflow inside the helmet.

The Foray MIPS drafts off the bold design language of the premium Synthe helmet, and offers many of the same key features including durable In-Mold construction and the Roc Loc 5 fit system with two-way fit adjustment.

While the headband system only goes part-way around the head and anchors to the helmet near the temples, which isn't as comfortable as full circumference headbands, it does still provide a size adjustability range similar to other helmets. It feels the business, it largely looks the business, and it packs the same safety features as the more expensive helmet.

Ian has since raced everything from cross-country MTB to 24-hour events, and over the last 20 years has graduated into the world of Lycra, skinny tyres and time trial bikes before catching the Ironman triathlon bug. Just twist the dial for a tighter feel on rough terrain, then back it off a notch and relax across the flats or a warm climb. While it lacks some fancier higher-end features, it certainly includes all the essentials and performs well across the board.

The vents and internal channelling are well positioned to keep you cool, while the internal pads offer a comfy ride and are easily removed to wash when dirty. This helmet can withstand the full impact of an accident flawlessly, thanks to its durable In-Mold construction, Coolmax padding, and the Roc Loc 5 fit system with two-way fit adjustment.While it lacks some high-end luxuries found on the most expensive models, it makes up for it with low weight, good comfort and ventilation, and all-around solid performance. Other more expensive helmets tend to have headband systems that wrap around the full circumference of the helmet, cradling the entire head away from the surface of the foam liner. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head.

Ok the helmet itself has excellent ventilation and a clever airflow system but for those riders who sweat a lot, the thin padding doesn't quite do enough to channel the sweat away from the face. Add to this the fact that my size M Foray weighs in at 271g on the Abbott family’s digital kitchen scales, compared to the 285g of my Synthe, and the positives just keep on coming. back into a box for the courier, there is some minor disassembly such as removing pedals and handlebars.
