Fly Racing 2018 F2 Carbon Helmet With MIPS - Forge

The F2 Carbon represents race-inspired lightweight helmet technology utilizing lightweight Carbon / Kevlar construction. Though it shares many of the same construction features as the leading Formula model, the F2 Carbon has its own unique style and identity.

• Shell is constructed using state-of-the-art, aircraft-grade woven carbon fiber and DuPont Kevlar composite materials, which create superior strength while remaining extremely light.
• MIPS low-friction layer can absorb more of the rotational force of impacts, adding more protection than other standard EPS helmets.
• Dual-density EPS liner has two layers of EPS (expanded polystyrene), one softer along with one slightly harder, that combine to provide more progressive impact absorption for different levels of impact.
• Three shells and four EPS sizes for a precise fit.
• Multi-port air induction cooling system includes 10 intake and 4 exhaust vents that create massive airflow to keep your head cool.
• Quad-vent goggle anti-fog vents above goggle eye port draw air from goggle to help clear away fog.
• Custom molded rubber trim with integrated nose guard helps keep rocks and debris away from your nose.
• New quick-release washable CoolMax comfort liner and cheek pads absorb sweat, provide plenty of ventilation, and are easy to remove and wash.
• High-Flow ventilation system has EPS (expanded polystyrene) and comfort liner align to maximize airflow.
• Helmet is constructed using super-strong, lightweight machined aluminum visor screws and stainless steel rivets and D-rings for superior strength and years of worry-free use.
• Optional carbon fiber intake vent wing (sold separately) can be added to the helmet for increased direction of airflow on the front vents.
• Includes a soft fleece helmet bag.
• Meets or exceeds the toughest safety standards on the market. SNELL 2015, DOT FMVSS 218 approved.

MIPS:

MIPS is an advanced and efficient brain protection system that provides a secure environment for riders of all kinds. MIPS industry-leading technology deals with "rotational violence" which is found to be the leading cause of concussion and even more severe brain injuries. It mimics the brain's own protection system.

When the head hits the ground at an angle, the brain slides along a membrane on the inner surface of the skull, which reduces the rotational forces transmitted to the brain. The MIPS yellow Low Friction Layer (LFL) sits between the helmet's EPS and the liner. At impact there is a movement, independent of direction, between MIPS and the liner that substantially reduces the rotational force to the brain.

MIPS does not interfere with a helmet's existing safety property, performance or design, adding minimal weight and less than 1 mm in thickness. It's based on more than 15 years of R&D at the Royal Institute of Technology and The Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, Sweden.
