What is Spherical Technology?

What is Spherical Technology?

Your brain is everything you are, and brain injuries can happen in a fraction of a second. Giro helmets with Spherical Technology can provide comprehensive protection and performance, so you can ride with more confidence in motion. Developed at the Bell+Giro Dome laboratory in partnership with MIPS®, Spherical Technology’s unique Ball-and-Socket Design redirects impact forces, bringing market-leading design, performance and brain protection together without compromising comfort, ventilation, weight or style.

Proven Performance

Proven Performance

In the quest to continue our legacy of leading performance and innovation, we don’t take past results or new technology for granted. That’s why we continue testing helmets in our Dome Test Lab as well as in partnership with MIPS®, in order to optimize the performance and integration of Spherical Technology to our standard. Thousands of tests to-date. • Top ratings in independent testing from third party laboratories • Every helmet model validated prior to production approval.

Ball-and-Socket Design

Spherical Technology’s Ball-and-Socket design, powered by MIPS®, helps redirect impact forces away from the brain by allowing the outer liner to rotate around the inner liner during a crash. It also eliminates contact with hard plastic or slip-planes against the skin.

DISCLAIMERS

WARNING: Cycling is a dangerous sport which may result in serious injury or even death. For proper use of your helmet, please refer to the owner’s manual. No helmet can protect the wearer against all possible impacts. Depending on the type of impact, even a low speed accident can result in a serious head injury or fatality. Helmets equipped with Spherical Technology are designed to protect the head and cannot guard against neck or other bodily injuries that may result from an accident.All accidents are different, and it is not possible to state if a given helmet will provide protection in certain accidents. Exercise care and good judgment whenever you ride. Comply with all local traffic regulations and do your part to avoid accidents of any kind.
