Kask Valegro Road Cycling Helmet (Matte Finish-WG11)If you like your kit to be light in weight, you can't go wrong with barely-there Kask Valegro Road Cycling Helmet (Matte Finish-WG11). Despite the low weight, it's incredibly protective too, passing the rigorous WG11 International Safety Test. Kask's aim with their Valegro Road Cycling Helmet was to give you the finest level of ventilation while cutting no corners on safety. This they have achieved via their patented MIT technology and precisely engineered vents. MIT uses a polycarbonate shell fused to an impact-absorbing inner EPS liner. By directly joining the layers together shock absorption is improved. At the same time, this engineered solution has allowed Kask to give the Valegro 37 vents without effecting strength and protection. With it's highly vented design air is able to rush inside and warm, damp air easily exhausts to the rear. A highly breathable and quick-wicking interior pad system sees head to pad contact reduced by 70% facilitating even more airflow to your scalp, keeping you cooler as you turn up the power. WG11 Safety TestThe Valegro passes the stringent WG11 test. This focuses on protection from rotational impact forces, measuring rotational kinematics from both oblique and normal impacts. With this safety test passed, you can be sure the Valegro has you covered should you be unfortunate enough to fall from your bike. Kask Octo-FitThe Kask Octo-Fit offers both excellent security and a precise fit. A rubberised Micro Dial adjuster provides an improved finger grip for adjustment. Floating cradle contact and supports are designed to oscillate freely through 180° allowing a perfect fit on any shaped head. The Skeletal Brackets of the cradle have been designed and refined to provide the best fit and support whilst being as light as possible.Resistex® padding Fast-wicking and quick-drying Resistex® padding draws moisture away from your head to keep you drier as your more intense efforts create heat and sweat. This works with the engineered airflow to boost all-ride comfort and the pads are washable to ensure freshness.

POC Axion MIPS HelmetCreated for the rigours of both trail and enduro mountain bike riding, the POC Axion MIPS Helmet has a focus on giving you superb comfort and ventilation when on the bike. But with outstanding protection, it keeps you safer when your ambition is beaten by gravity and you crash to the ground.Durable. Light. Protective. The first line of defence for your head is the combination of a tough but lightweight Unibody shell and an energy-dissipating EPS foam liner. The outer of the Axion MIPS Helmet not only brushes off overhanging bushes and branches during normal trail riding but in the event of a crash, it maintains structural integrity. At the same time, the EPS foam inner liner absorbs the damaging forces of head impacts. Both work in tandem to prevent injury to your head when you fall. You also have the benefit of POC's patented adjustable breakaway peak. This comes away from the helmet during a crash, reducing harmful forces transmitted to the neck. Extended zones around the temples and back of the head also give you extra protection in risk areas.MIPS Integra Head Protection SolutionThe Axion also features the MIPS Integra system. This brings together POC's 'whole-helmet' safety and design ethos with the fully integrated brain-protecting technology of MIPS. This holistic approach sees every detail of the helmet engineered to work in harmony with each other, giving you new levels of seamless safety, comfort, ventilation, fit and function.MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head.Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions in oblique hits to the head. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head.360-degree Fit SystemIn order to keep the Axion MIPS in place, you’ll find POC’s 360° fit system. This offers an easy-to-operate and precise fit, ensuring your Axion remains comfortable when riding and stays securely in place in the event of a crash.Cool TrailsWith the structural strength of the Unibody construction, POC have been able to optimise vent size without compromising on safety. With large intake and exhaust vents, and the integrated MIPS system working seamlessly with the inner air channels, you'll enjoy fresh airflow over the head. You can also be confident of a cool head as your mountain bike ride hots up.As you dive into fun singletrack, test your skills on technical trails and take to the air across big gaps that raise your heart rate, it's good to know the Axion MIPS Helmet has your head safely covered.FeaturesMIPS Integra - The latest technology from brain protection specialists MIPSUnibody Shell - unibody Polycarbonate shell enhances the structural integrity of the helmetEPS Liner - A lightweight EPS liner gives optimized protectionPatented breakaway peak - snap off in a crash to enhance neck protectionOptimised airflow ventilationExtended protection zonesA 360-degree adjustment system makes it easy to find a secure, comfortable fitWeight: 370g (M)Certification - EN 1078Shop all MIPS helmets - Click hereBuy POC Helmets from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

While the Unlimited Ultimate Liner Bib Shorts may be hidden under baggy shorts, Castelli have still applied the exact same level of performance and detail as for their race shorts. At the heart of the shorts is their renowned Progetto X² Air seamless seat pad. With dual-density foam and gel pads providing support and damping, it's as good for rough trails as it is for smooth roads. Thanks to a carefully designed hip area, using compressive Force fabric, as you move, manoeuvre and pedal, the pad remains firmly in place, preventing chafing. Seeing as these bibs are to be used under baggies, the legs are kept light and airy to maintain comfort. Perforated fabrics and the gauze-like GIRO Air elastic grippers allow for cooling airflow and for your skin to breathe. Meanwhile the upper is also minimalist in design. Open-knit bib straps let the air flow about the body easily while the back is kept narrow to reduce coverage. A back yoke keeps the straps in the right place and prevents bunching. The final flourish is the inclusion of 3 storage pockets. These can be found to the back, sitting just above the waist height of your baggy shorts. An ideal place to stash essentials when you're wearing a loose-fitting t-shirt/cycling jersey.
