Giro Cielo MIPS

Product Overview

The Giro Cielo MIPS helmet is engineered for road and gravel cyclists who demand performance, safety, and comfort in every ride. With a compact aerodynamic shape, advanced protection technologies, and superior ventilation, this helmet keeps riders cool and confident on long training sessions or weekend adventures. The integration of Mips® Evolve Core rotational energy management adds an extra layer of safety by reducing the forces transmitted to the brain during angled impacts—offering peace of mind without sacrificing style or fit. Designed for riders who value modern safety standards, lightweight construction, and efficient airflow, the Cielo MIPS delivers a balanced experience for both everyday commuters and endurance enthusiasts.

Key Features

• Mips® Evolve Core Technology: A low-friction layer is embedded within the helmet’s interior, allowing for slight rotational movement during certain impacts. This innovation helps redirect harmful rotational forces away from the head, significantly improving protection against brain injuries commonly associated with angled crashes. Whether navigating busy city streets or technical gravel trails, this technology enhances safety without adding bulk.
• Roll Cage Reinforcement: An invisible web of lightweight yet durable material is seamlessly integrated into the EPS foam liner. Known as Roll Cage, this internal structure strengthens the helmet’s integrity under impact, helping it maintain its shape and protective function even when stressed. It provides an extra measure of strength that you’ll never see but can always trust.
• Wind Tunnel Ventilation System: Developed using proprietary testing in wind tunnels, this system combines 22 strategically placed vents with internal exhaust channels. Cool air flows in at the front while warm, stale air is actively pushed out through the rear. This dynamic airflow keeps the rider’s head consistently cool, especially during intense efforts or hot weather, making it one of the most effective cooling systems available.
• Roc Loc 5 Air MIPS Fit System: This micro-adjustable ergonomic dial allows precise customization of vertical positioning and side-to-side contact points. Riders can fine-tune the fit independently for a secure, personalized feel that adapts to different head shapes and riding positions. The compact design also optimizes stability and airflow through the helmet.
• IONIC+ Padding: Treated with pure silver ions, the helmet’s padding offers natural, permanent odor resistance. This ensures the helmet stays fresh-smelling after repeated use, reducing the need for frequent washing and helping maintain hygiene over time.

While not explicitly stated, the helmet’s design suggests compatibility with most eyewear and hydration systems commonly used in cycling, enhancing versatility across different disciplines.

Important Notes

This product does not include additional accessories such as visors or mounting hardware beyond the helmet itself. Proper care includes hand-washing the IONIC+ padding with mild soap and allowing it to air dry—avoid machine washing or high-heat drying to preserve material integrity. Always inspect the helmet for cracks or damage after any significant impact, regardless of visible signs. Replacement is recommended if subjected to crash forces.
