Giro Ionos

Giro Ionos:

The Ionos

Ionos is the most ventilated and technologically advanced road cycling helmet Giro has ever created. Our proprietary in-mold composite sub-frame (I.C.S.-) provides the strength to support 21 of the largest vents ever carved into a helmet. These massive vents, coupled with an intricate network of internal channels, create a cooling system we call Wind Tunnel- ventilation, making Ionos the coolest, best-ventilated helmet available. Perfect for keeping Grand Tour champions like Lance Armstrong and Alberto Contador cool on the hottest days and over the most tortuous Alpine climbs

Technologies:

In-mold Technology

In-mold construction fuses the helmet-s outer shell with the impact-absorbing EPS liner. The two materials are fused together, and one is reinforced by the other. This -exoskeleton- allows us to engineer helmets that are lighter, more durable and better ventilated.

Wind Tunnel Ventilation

Giro helmets are developed utilizing our proprietary Wind Tunnel- ventilation system, which combines active vents with internal exhaust channels that thrust cool, fresh air over and around the riders head-while forcing heat and stale air out. This significant increase in air channeling makes a difference that riders will immediately feel and appreciate

Internal Channels

By definition, a channel is; a route through which anything passes or progresses. In the case of Giro helmets, we utilize channels on the inner portion of the helmet to move air. These internal channels are carefully crafted and are one of the keys to a well ventilated helmet. When combined with our external vents, they help move hot, stale air across the riders head and force it out the back of the helmet. This is a proprietary Giro technology that we call WindTunnel Ventilation.

In-mold Composite Subframe (I.C.S.)

It-s the secret behind Ionos- secret - the unique ability to offer huge vents without compromising protection. The Ionos features a visible weave of carbon reinforcement called In-mold Composite Sub Frame (I.C.S), which runs through the helmet-s liner and around the vents. By using these advanced materials, the sub-frame can be tuned to provide incredible structural support, impact dispersion, and resistance to penetration.

X-Static® Helmet Padding

Found exclusively in Ionos helmet padding, X-Static®, The Silver Fiber®, is an environmentally friendly silver-coated fabric that provides anti-microbial and thermodynamic benefits. So, in addition to staying cooler in summer and warmer in winter your Ionos will stay fresh all year round.

Super Fit Engineering-

A great helmet is so comfortable that it virtually disappears when you put it on. Our proprietary three-size Super Fit system is based on -human scale factors- data and nearly 20 years of crafting helmets for the best riders in the world. The result is a line of helmets that fit 98% of the worlds population, yet look and fit like they were made just for you
