Helmets

Meet the all-new Propero 4 helmet—it brings the aero advantages of the S-Works Evade 3 together with the ventilation of S-Works Prevail 3, all with the comfort and confidence Specialized helmets are famous for, earning the highest 5-Star Virginia Tech® helmet rating. Every detail of the Propero 4 was created with our equation for speed in mind. Aerodynamics + Ventilation + Lightweight = Fast. AERODYNAMICS: With extensive testing in CFD and in our Win Tunnel, aerodynamics were at the forefront of the Propero 4 development. We took the aerodynamic leading edge from the S-Works Evade 3 and pulled it directly into the Propero 4—which helped it to be four watts, or 15 seconds over 40km, faster than our S-Works Prevail 3. VENTILATION: Drawing inspiration from our world-renowned S-Works Prevail 3, our goal was not merely to replicate but to elevate. Ventilation became a focal point in our quest for a well-balanced, aerodynamic, and ventilated helmet. We incorporated the rear-end design language of the S-Works Prevail 3 and introduced small 2mm offset micro-channels that create turbulence in the airflow throughout the helmet to help create a continuous, refreshing flow of air. ATTENTION TO DETAIL: Beyond just aerodynamics and ventilation, the Propero 4 represents meticulous attention to detail. We went the extra mile by incorporating cutting-edge technologies from our S-Works level helmets, like MIPS technology for confidence, and a fit system designed to deliver all-day comfort. The Propero 4 doesn't just meet expectations - Mips Evolve Solution is a low-friction layer that allows a sliding motion of 10 to 15mm in all directions. Studies indicate that this reduces some of the rotational forces transmitted to the brain during angled impacts. - Propero 4 earned the highest 5-Star Virginia Tech® Helmet Rating from internationally renowned Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. - FS3 Fit System & Occipital Base Adjustment optimizes comfort by personalizing fit to individual head shape, and helmet angle can be adjusted for compatibility with glasses. - Adjustable Tri-Fix web splitter combined with thin 10mm webbing for increased comfort. - Dedicated sunglass storage maintains a secure fit and keeps eyewear out of the way when needed. - Micro Channeling & large rear-end vents for increased ventilation. - S-Works Evade 3 front-end design language for enhanced Aerodynamics. - Precision, full-wrap polycarbonate shell for increased durability and premium finish

The most aero road helmet in the peloton now breathes better. The S-Works Evade 3 was reinvented from the inside out to cool better, making it the fastest choice for more stages. Through extensive Computational Fluid Dynamics and Win Tunnel testing, we created a rear "diffuser" that helps minimize drag and improve ventilation. The diffuser helps optimize aero performance by allowing air to release easier and improves ventilation by drawing 10% more air through the helmet at a given speed. The Occipital Base Adjustment optimizes comfort by personalizing fit to individual head shape and helmet angle can be adjusted for compatibility with glasses. An adjustable Tri-Fix web system gives riders added comfort with updated, thinner 10mm webbing that minimizes strap noise. And the ANGi-ready, ultralight Mindset micro-dial fit system with height adjustability has been updated for improved grip and reaction for easy on-the-go fit. Our ultralight and supremely comfortable MIPS Node Air technology is integrated directly into the helmet padding, with a sleek low friction layer designed to dissipate rotational forces. With Specialized's proprietary development work, we added perforations to maximize breathability, performance, comfort, and weight savings. - Enlarged front vents help increase ventilation. - Rear Diffuser for aero and ventilation benefits. - MIPS Air Node is MIPS' most ventilation-focused solution. - Adjustable Tri-Fix web splitter boosts comfort through personalized fit. - Precision, full-wrap polycarbonate shell for increased durability and premium finish. - Dual-density optimized EPS foam.

The S-Works Prevail 3 helmet is perfect for riders who value the comfort and thermoregulation benefits that superior ventilation delivers. It is the ultimate all-around helmet that excels in hot conditions, strenuous climbs, and mountainous stages. With a never-ending quest to push the limits of ventilation, we eliminated air-blocking foam "bridges" from the center, effectively creating thru-air channels that increase the surface area of ventilation by 24.5% compared to the S-Works Prevail II Vent helmet. The all-new S-Works Prevail 3 has the most ventilation area of any helmet we have ever made. When a helmet is impacted, its job is to dissipate the energy of the impact. The conventional approach to helmet design is that more foam (EPS) means better energy management. We re-wrote the book on cycling helmet design by innovating beyond foam. Woven aramid "cables" traverse the helmet and are anchored to carbon fiber side panels. Upon impact, the AirCage technology* works as a suspension bridge and is designed to distribute localized forces throughout the helmet. The Occipital Base Adjustment optimizes comfort by personalizing fit to individual head shape and helmet angle can be adjusted for compatibility with glasses.

With extended protection and exceptional ventilation, the Kortal gives next-level trail and enduro protection. Developed for complete protection, the helmet fits seamlessly with the Ora goggles and is designed so that the goggle strap does not cover any ventilation—helping ensure enduro riders stay cool on the climbs between race stages. The detachable helmet peak can also be adjusted and raise higher on the helmet so that goggles or sunglasses can be stored on the helmet below the peak. The rear ventilation holes are also shaped so that sunglasses can be securely stored in them Although developed for MTB, the helmet is also certified to the Dutch NTA 8776 electric bicycle helmet standard, currently the only standard for electric bikes. - Complete trail and enduro protection - E-bike ready - Patented breakaway peak enhances neck protection

The Synthe II MIPS is an icon of road helmet design, combining the performance advantages of a compact profile with great cooling power and luxurious comfort for road and gravel riders. The Synthe MIPS Helmet offers good looks in a slim design while offering more coverage on the back of the helmet for a little extra assurance. The compact form of the Synthe MIPS slips through the air with ease across multiple yaw and head angles and offers impressive cooling power. Key features include the Roc Loc Air fit system with 2-way fit tuning and Aero Mesh Panels with a dedicated port for securely docking sunglasses as you ride. The Synthe MIPS also has the Multi-Directional Impact Protection System, which we believe can redirect energy and provide more protection in certain impacts. - MIPS-equipped—to redirect impact energy, providing more protection in certain impacts: - Construction - In Mold construction - Thermoformed Sl roll cage reinforcement Shell type: - Polycarbonate shell - Number of vents: 26 Ventilation type: - Wind Tunnel Vents with internal channeling Fit System: - Roc Loc 5 Air Impact liner type: - EPS
