GIRO MEN'S HELMETS
2012 Giro Aeon Helmet
In the never-ending quest for helmet lightness, one fact makes us rest easy: Even the most feathery helmets must pass the CPSC safety standard for impact resistance. If, for example, you've ever picked up a Giro Prolight, you know why this is a concern. It seems impossible that a near-weightless ...read more
2012 Giro Atmos Helmet
How much do we love the Giro Atmos Helmet? So much that it has been a permanent fixture in our cycling closets since it first appeared on the scene. Sure, we’ve flirted with some new, good-looking lids, but we always have come back to our true love. The Atmos was the first helmet that ever ...read more
2012 Giro Saros Helmet
To us, the hallmark of a Giro design is three central vents. You'll see them on this Giro Saros Helmet. It was part of the original Prolight design, and just about everything they've done subsequently has three prominent central holes. To us, this trident conveys stability and balance. Giro ...read more
2011 Giro Ionos Helmet
Why is the Giro Ionos our all-time best-selling helmet at Competitive Cyclist? It boils down to a few key points: One is its weight. Giro makes liberal use of lightweight composites to make the Ionos nearly 10% lighter than its predecessor, the Atmos. And then there's its ventilation. You ...read more
2012 Giro Xar Helmet
It’s not that road helmets are substantially less durable than helmets made for mountain biking, it’s just that the three-way balance between ventilation, weight, and durability is readjusted for off-road purposes. The Giro Xar Helmet gets the same expert engineering found in the top-line road ...read more
2012 Giro Selector Helmet
We've come a long way from the Giro "ice chest" aero helmet that Greg Lemond wore when he rode to a last stage upset of Laurent Fignon in the '89 Tour. In a similar twist of the general classification, Levi Leipheimer overcame a two minute deficit coming into a last stage time trial to leapfrog up ...read more
2012 Giro Advantage 2 Aero Helmet
Designed and tested in the wind tunnel, the Giro Advantage 2 has proven to be the most comfortable, well ventilated, and aerodynamic time trial helmet on the market. Giro has taken over 20 years of helmet design to establish their proprietary Super Fit Engineering. That means they create the ...read more
2012 Giro Section Helmet
Let's face it, lots of "normal" folks think bike riders are assholes. Here's a quote that we heard from one such civilian recently as he mimed the act of being slowed by a lone cyclist, flooring the accelerator, and giving the biker a gentle nudge, "bike riders think they own the roads. They wear ...read more
2012 Giro Aeon Replacement Pad Set
The prepared cyclist in you knows to get these ahead of time for that day in the distant future when your helmet pads are either rotting or permanently odorized by your sweat. The frugal cyclist knows that the pads in the Aeon are made from X-Static material. This means they have ...read more
2012 Giro Atmos Replacement Coolmax Helmet Pads
Here's what we know: The Giro Atmos is the undisputed greatest helmet ever made. It's the only one we want to sell because it's so much more comfy and breathable than any other helmet on the market, and its customization of fit is pretty much infinite. In fact, the only issue we've ever had with it ...read more
