Half shell for all-mountain & enduro-oriented mountain biking

MET has been making bicycle helmets for over 30 years. By focusing on helmets, they always guarantee the highest quality and safety standards. Protection when riding a mountain bike is also part of the ION brand DNA. So it was a logical step to combine all the know-how and expertise of two of the most forward-thinking brands on the market to develop the ION helmet. The MET X ION Traze Amp MIPS has everything you would expect from a first-class helmet: It offers safety and a perfect fit thanks to the proven MIPS system, great comfort thanks to the generous ventilation and practical features such as the Fidlock closure system or the flexible visor .

highlights

  • MIPS® - brain protection system: The low-friction shell allows a movement of 10-15mm in several directions in certain cases of an oblique impact, which is intended to reduce rotational forces acting on the head
  • Fit system: Adjustable system for individual adjustment for a secure hold of the helmet on the head
  • Magnetic Fidlock® closure: Easy to open and close thanks to the magnetic Fidlock® closure system, even with gloves or with one hand
  • Ventilation: Internal ventilation channels and openings ensure a comfortable flow of air. Further openings under the visor ensure that your goggles or glasses do not fog up while driving and that the forehead area remains pleasantly dry
  • Compatible with glasses: Simply attach your glasses to the two visor openings and always have your equipment at hand
  • Goggle Compatible: Special routing that keeps goggle straps securely in place. In addition, there is enough space under the visor to stow your goggles on climbs or breaks
  • Flexible Visor: The flexible visor yields in the event of a fall, minimizing neck strain injuries

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 motion than linear motion 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.
