Product Description

Product Description
Offering aggressive styling, high-caliber performance features and massive vents, the Giro Animas Mountain Bike Helmet is designed for riders who live and breathe for long rides. This mountain-bike helmet is constructed with in-mold technology that fuses a tough outer microshell to the helmet's EPS foam liner. The fusion process reinforces areas around vents and ribs, making the helmet lighter, cooler and tougher. The Animas utilizes Giro's Roc Loc 4 system, which includes adjustments for fit tensioning and helmet positioning, plus a supple rubber over-molded fit belt for both comfort and stability. This Giro helmet features 27 vents that allow cool, fresh air in and stale, warm air out.

The Giro Animas also features a P.O.V. (Point Of View) adjustable visor that is anchored by a patented internal clutch, which allows 15-degrees of vertical adjustment and prevents the visor from rattling and coming loose over rough terrain. The Animas mountain helmet comes in three Super Fit sizes, which combine human scale factor data with handcrafted headforms and rider feedback for ultimate comfort. Giro's Animas helmet is a lightweight 310 grams, and complies with U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's safety standards for bicycle helmets.

Helmet Tips--You Should Always...

  • Wear a helmet when you ride
  • Wear your helmet low in the front to protect the forehead
  • Fasten your buckle and tighten your chin strap
  • Check your adjustments every time you wear your helmet
  • Inspect your helmet regularly for signs of wear or damage
  • Wear a helmet designed for your activity

About Giro
Working late nights in his garage, designer/bike racer Jim Gentes created the first lightweight adult cycling helmet in 1985. Friends at NASA helped tune the final helmet shape and vent placement, and the result was the Giro Prolight, a helmet that was better looking than traditional designs while offering a superior fit and still met the industry's toughest safety standards. Plus, it was half the weight of traditional helmets. Since then, Giro has advanced its helmets, many of which have set the standards for styling, function, and innovation for progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Young-bloods and old-timers; hard-cores, heshers, and hipsters; rookies, experts, and a few regular Joes too--in fact, pretty musch anyone that appreciates superior fit and function, cutting edge styling, and the very best ideas you get in a helmet.



Product Description
The Animas offers aggressive styling and high-caliber performance featurs matched to massive vents that were made for epic endurance challenges and tough terrain. If you live and breathe for long rides, this is your helmet.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real life saver, June 26, 2008
By Richard A. Wehe "Bicyclist" (Sacramento, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Four weeks ago while riding at 20 mph a squirrel darted from the side of the trail and into my front wheel. The wheel immediately stopped rotating and I somersaulted over the handlebars and landed directly on the left front of my Giro helmet. The helmet's interior broke in 4 sections and the exterior shell sustained a crushing blow. I suffered only a headache. That evening I ordered a new Giro Animas helmet and 2 weeks later I was back on the bike leading a 3 day tour up the Marin and Sonoma coastline. My doctor told me that the helmet likely prevented a serious and possibly fatal head injury. The Giro helmet is truly a life saver.
The Animus is a well designed, comfortable helmet that can be adjusted for a comfortable, secure fit. I will never be without it.
