The story behind the name Kari (Kári) is a term for wind and was in ancient Norse mythology personified by Kári, who was the heir to his father Fornjót’s kingdoms, making him the ruler of Finland and Kvenland. Kári is the father of Frosti (‘frost’), or elsewhere named Jökul, which means ‘icicle, ice, glacier’ – and the grandfather of Snær the Old (Snærr inn gamli’), meaning ‘Snow the Old’.

When you're mountain biking, an almost inevitable part of life is some downtime - as in hitting the dirt after crashing. And when that happens you'll be glad of the tough protection the Women's Montaro MTB Helmet II (MIPS) offers. When you do bang your head, the EPS foam liner provides the shock-absorbing properties needed to protect against injury. Roll Cage™ reinforcement also maintains structural strength and stability during a crash. The MTB-specific shape ensures greater coverage across the whole head too. Covering the liner is a durable polycarbonate shell. This is bonded directly to the EPS Liner, creating a strong and durable helmet that can fend off the knocks from trail overgrowth. To this Giro then adds MIPS. 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. Shop All MIPS Helmets Click Here A Cool and Fresh Head With a total of 16 vents, the Women's Montaro will keep you cool and comfortable when the trail demands your full attention. Cool airflow is also complemented by the Ionic+™ padding. With its permanent anti-microbial performance you'll enjoy the freshness and itch-free comfort whenever you ride. Mountain Bike Features As a mountain bike helmet, the Montaro has some specific features you'll love. The P.O.V. Plus™ visor allows you to easily lift the visor, making space to stow goggles on the front of your helmet when your run is done and you're on the lift back up. Talking of goggles, grippers on the back keep your goggle straps securely in place, no matter how rough the terrain. Roc Loc® 5 Air MIPS System Setting the standard for ease of adjustment, stability and comfort, the Roc Loc® 5 Air MIPS System ensures you always get the right fit of your helmet. Integrated with the MIPS system it allows for precise adjustment, with both fore-aft tilt and single-hand dial adjustment. It also allows for uncompromised airflow to your head. The design allows a smooth passage of cooling air through the vents and along the inner air channels. And it’s lighter than comparable systems too, making it the ultimate in skull-hugging luxury.

From long climbs to rowdy, technical descents, the Giro Montaro™ MIPS Mountain Bike helmet inspires your ride no matter where the trail takes you. Its compact shape offers deep, confident coverage, and the Roc Loc® Air fit system boosts ventilation while improving fit. In addition to this helmet’s already impressive cooling power, it’s outfitted with a hydrophilic, anti-microbial brow pad that can absorb up to ten-times its weight in sweat. Giro designed the Montaro MIPS to have full goggle integration, with strap grippers on the back of the helmet, and a P.O.V. Plus™ visor that allows you to lift the visor and place your goggles on the front of the helmet.

These steps include three riding positions plus a high position for goggle storage above your brow. The design allows you to easily adjust your visor with one hand while riding. Hydrophilic Pad The Hydrophilic Pad can absorb up to 10 times its own weight in water, helping you manage sweat while riding. The pad retains moisture to prevent sweat from dripping into your eyes and then dries quickly. The antimicrobial, X-Static lining helps to reduce odour, keeping your helmet fresh. Roc Loc® Air Fit System This revolutionary fit system adds a new dimension to helmet performance by enhancing cooling, as well as fit comfort and stability. Using a patented design that suspends the helmet just slightly off the top of the skull, Roc Loc® Air allows cool airflow to pass directly over your head, further enhancing the performance of vents and internal channelling that exhaust heat out of the helmet. Fit and feel adjustments mimic the Roc Loc® 5, allowing you to easily custom tune fit tension and fore-aft tilt of the helmet in seconds using a single hand. Roll Cage™ Reinforcement The Roll Cage™ is a light-yet-tough web of reinforcement invisibly moulded inside a helmet’s EPS foam liner. It helps the helmet to hold together under impact and provides an extra measure of strength and integrity that you’ll never notice...unless you need it.
Now on its third generation, the EQUIPE RS Targa Cycling Rain Jacket has had some tweaks to its design and construction to improve its all-around performance. The 3-layer Schloss Tex material is Assos' lightest waterproof fabric. This rustle-free, stretchy material sandwiches a more durable breathable membrane giving not only a boost to wet-weather comfort but also an increase in its ability to take on the general wear and tear of regular use. Other improvements see the removal of the previous iterations pocket slots, removing an area where water can seep inside. Instead, a two-way front zipper makes it easy to unzip from the bottom and free up access to your jersey pockets as well as giving easy control of ventilation. A stitchless rear reflective strip also removes an area of water ingress while keeping you visible when daylight fades. A tall collar keeps the elements off at the neck and an extended rear lower panel fends off tyre spray at the back. Fully taped seams also ensure a watertight seal. The body-hugging Assos raceFit also ensures you're not wasting precious energy in battling a loose and flappy jacket. Superlight, easily packable and weather-proof, the EQUIPE RS Targa Cycling Rain Jacket is easily layered over your race kit to keep you protected during a wet race. And in any season it slips over any cycling kit to block wind and rain while ensuring you're not drenched in sweat when you inject more intensity.
The Pro-tier performance of the EQUIPE RS Jersey S9 TARGA is achieved via a number of factors, including continuing with the aerodynamic detailing of its predecessor, careful fabric choice, bonded seam technology and Assos' aggressive RacingFit. Assos RacingFit Made for the WorldTour, you can expect the Assos RacingFit to give you a second-skin fit that seeks to offer maximum performance from your hard-won fitness. With a cut designed to excel in aero riding positions, it will feel strange when you first pull the jersey on. But settle into the drops or bar extensions and it all makes sense. Compression in all the right places also delivers outstanding comfort and support. Fast but Comfortable Fabrics The fast functional fabric mix begins with the use of Assos miniCheck Tex fabric to the front. This 3D knit fabric is extremely elastic to give you the close aero fit needed to go fast, streamlining you to optimise your power output. But not just that, it's highly breathable too, ensuring you don't get overwhelmed with sweat when your race and training efforts intensify. Elsewhere, the rear of the jersey sees Assos' featherweight Stabilizer textile deployed. This holds the jersey smoothly in place thanks to its limited vertical stretch, keeping airflow smooth and uninterrupted while also supporting the rear pockets. Lastly, taking into account a low and aggressive riding position, the raw-cut bonded Push-Pull textile sleeves eliminate any disruptive tape or seams from the leading edge, giving a true lie flat, low drag transition from jersey to skin. Practical Features With the focus on performance, the Assos team haven't overlooked those small practical details that you need when training and racing. To the back, the Triple Ramp Pockets are easily accessible and pre-structured for optimal capacity and stability when loaded. A flap also offers extra security, preventing items from spilling out. An ultralight bonded cam-lock zipper to the front gives you full control of ventilation to the body and a lightweight taped waist keeps bulk low, the fit smooth. And with fabrics offering a range of ultraviolet protection, from UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) 25 to 50, this is a jersey ideal for summer racing.
Flagship Performace The flagship EQUIPE RS Bib Shorts S9 TARGA is a redesign of its RS S9 predecessor, with a reduction in weight and bulk while maintaining superb flexibility, muscle compression and aerodynamic fit. You'll also find materials that dry quicker - ensuring soaked up perspiration doesn't add unnecessary mid-ride weight. Across the lower abdomen, an Ossidia material panel offers greater stretch than previously achieved. This allows for more comfort, easing pressure when you're in a low riding position while also expanding during deep-breathing high-intensity efforts. Elsewhere, lightly compressive and silky Type.441 is not only superbly comfortable but also provides excellent abrasion resistance. Active cooling is ideal for hot summer rides and it's UV protective and odour-resistant too. Speed and Comfort Harmonised The RS S9s are made with the Assos AEPD (Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design) RacingFit. This is tuned to provide you with shorts that deliver stability, comfort and a smooth, streamlined race-ready fit. ASSOS shorts are legendary; this fit design is why. The aero comfort also extends to the leg grippers. 6mm in depth and using LYCRA®, they provide a secure fit while giving a smooth and uninterrupted transition from short to skin. A-Lock Engineering The A-Lock system combines Assos' rollBar bib straps, modified ergoBox, and one-piece Butterfly panel to give you shorts that fit beautifully no matter what. Whether it's high-intensity bursts of speed or long endurance efforts, this engineered design maintains superb stability as you shift weight in and out of the saddle. Assos' unique 'butterfly' panel design, snugly wraps the legs and back to create the ergoBox structure. This holds the S9 insert securely in place for an incredible feeling of support and comfort throughout your pedal stroke and when you're shifting weight on the saddle. S9 Sundeck Insert Taking their already super-comfortable S9 insert, Assos have made improvements to make it lighter, cooler and minimise its footprint, all to enhance comfort still further. The first improvement is what Assos call the Sundeck Superlight. This is a luxuriously soft front panel that increases airflow while eliminating pressure in this most sensitive area. Then comes Assos' whirlKrater. Again this is all about airflow, with copious perforations added throughout the insert, creating a whirlwind of cooling airflow. What hasn't changed is the odour-resistant top sheet for all-day freshness. You also retain the benefits of 9mm shock-absorbing foam, taking the buzz out of rougher roads. 3D Waffle inserts keep bulk low and allow more air circulation. And Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation. Lastly, there's the goldenGate. The unique stitching pattern allows the insert to 'float' allowing the pad to move with you for optimal comfort.
Made with a blend of Assos' own ultralight materials and Lycra®, the RS Cycling Socks TARGA provide exceptional comfort and support. The supersoft 'Hydrogen' yarns feel luxurious against the skin and provide outstanding moisture-wicking and breathability, preventing sweat from creating areas of discomfort. Meanwhile, the Lycra® content gives a lightly compressive and flexible fit, keeping comfort high throughout your ride. At the arch, Assos use a ribbed band of airy mesh to add further support and enhance breathability and airflow. Seamless construction prevents chafing too. Lastly, the 18cm cuff gives the socks a contemporary look, while not falling foul of UCI's sock height rules. These socks are ready to race.
