ROSE Bikes OMNE BEACON MIPS Road Helmet| Road Helmets

The OMNE BEACON MIPS by POC is literally enlightening, because the road bike helmet comes with an integrated and manually operated helmet light that can be easily recharged via USB. The road helmet has also been updated with the integrated MIPS AIR NODE impact protection system, which offers you reliable protection in the event of an accident. In addition, the bike helmet by POC comes with a robust PC outer shell and a tough EPS inner shell to complete its protective features. Thanks to a 360° fit system, the helmet allows for precise adjustments to perfectly fit your head. Last but not least, the weight of the helmet benefits from its slim design – this road helmet shows you the way!

Highlights & Technologies:

MIPS AIR NODE:
When a head rotates quickly and comes to a sudden stop, the rotational acceleration may cause the brain tissue to experience high levels of strain. This stretching of the tissue caused by these motions may result in various types of brain injury. MIPS is designed with the intent to address rotational acceleration from impact.
The MIPS AIR NODE system is a low-friction layer laminated to the base of the comfort padding. It is connected to the energy-absorbing helmet lining with Velcro fasteners. In the event of oblique impacts, the ”nodes” are designed to release locally so that the padding can slide and the rotational movement of the head can be reduced. The Mips Air Node system ensures movement inside the helmet to reduce the rotational movement of the head in the event of an impact at a certain angle and thus reduce the risk of injury. The system remains fixed until movement is required, as it is only released on impact. The Mips Air Node padding can of course be removed, washed by hand and dried at room temperature.

EPS:
The inner shell is made of EPS (expanded polystyrene). EPS is the most efficient material for absorbing shock and impact energies. EPS is extremely lightweight and maintains its properties in a wide temperature range.
The purpose of the inner EPS shell is to prevent or reduce a rider’s head injuries in the event of a fall. The shell absorbs the impact energy and is thereby itself compressed or even destroyed (comparable to an airbag in a car). This is why you should always replace a bike helmet with a new one after an impact.
