FOX Speedframe Pro Klif helmet S pale green

High-quality MTB jet helmet from Fox

Developed with feedback from Fox's MTB pro athletes, the Speedframe Pro has earned the highest 5 STAR rating in Virginia Tech's bike helmet rating program. This high-quality MTB open face helmet with industry-leading features offers you reliable protection on the trail. At the top of this list is the MIPS®, which serves to absorb rotational movement and direct the forces away from your brain in the event of a fall.

The Varizorb™ dual-density EPS inner shell provides additional impact protection by dissipating forces over a larger area. The 360-degree retention system and Fidlock® SNAP helmet buckle ensure a perfect fit on every ride, and the cinch buckle is easy to open and close, even when wearing gloves. The antimicrobial and odor reducing XT2® liner wicks moisture away from the head and is easily removable and washable when needed.

With the visor that can be adjusted in 3 positions, the Speedframe Pro adapts effortlessly to your glasses. Are you looking for a performance-oriented trail helmet? Congratulations, you found him!

Technologies used

In this chapter we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses in this product.

MIPS
The MIPS® safety system was developed to provide additional protection for helmets in numerous accidents. In certain impact situations, the MIPS system can reduce dangerous forces that might otherwise be transmitted to the helmet wearer's head.

1. Conventional helmets are designed and tested for a straight impact. In most cases, however, the impact is at an angle, which can cause rotational movements for the head.

2. This rotational movement can cause brain injury.

3. The low-friction shell is designed to help reduce rotational movement of the head in certain cases of angled impact.

Straight impact - oblique impact

The brain is typically more sensitive to rotational movement than linear movement because it has a shear strength similar to that of water or gel. When rotational movement causes different parts of the brain to move at different times, the tissues can be stretched, causing concussions or other brain injuries.

Rotational motion is a common cause of concussion and more serious brain injury from an oblique impact to the head. The MIPS system consists of a low-friction shell that is fixed inside the helmet. The low-friction shell is designed to slide slightly inside the helmet in the event of an accident, allowing forces to be directed away from the head. It is said to help reduce the risk of brain injuries.

Most conventional helmets are designed for a straight impact, but in most cases the impact is at an angle. The low-friction shell can reduce the rotational forces of an oblique impact.

Security system with the brain as a model

Unlike conventional helmets, which are primarily designed and tested for a straight impact, the low-friction shell of the MIPS system mimics the brain's own protection system against rotational movement. The cerebrospinal fluid is our natural defense system that allows the brain to move offset to the skull.
