Giro Indicator Sport Bike Helmet

Giro Indicator Sport Bike Helmet Review



Giro Indicator Sport Bike Helmet Feature

  • Lightweight bike helmet that's ideal for casual or technical use
  • In-mold construction fuses outer shell with impact-absorbing EPS liner
  • 20 built-in vents thrust cool air over and around rider's head
  • Includes snap-fit visor; Acu Dial fit system for easy 1-hand adjustment
  • Adjusts between 21.25 and 24 inches; weighs 0.62 pounds
The Giro Indicator's confident style and superior ventilation are coupled with a modern design that complements every type of rider. As a result, the Indicator helmet is the perfect choice for riding downtown, up a technical climb, and everything in between. The helmet is built using Giro's in-mold construction, which fuses the helmet's outershell with the impact-absorbing EPS liner. Not only does this reinforce both layers, but the "exoskeleton" also allows Giro to engineer helmets that are lighter, more durable, and better ventilated. The helmet also includes 20 built-in vents, which thrust cool, fresh air over and around the rider's head while forcing heat and stale air out. And riders will love the helmet's snap-fit visor, which shields your eyes on bright, sunny days.

The Indicator bike helmet is carefully sculpted and size-specific, with an easy-to-adjust Acu Dial fit system. The helmet--which adjusts between 21.25 and 24 inches--weighs only 0.62 pounds and complies with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's safety standards for bicycle helmets.

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 sleek, stylish helmet that offered a superior fit while still meeting the industry's toughest safety standards. In addition, the helmet weighed half as much as traditional helmets, making it extremely comfortable. In the years since, Giro has advanced its helmets, which are extremely popular among progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are now worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Giro is based in Scotts Valley, California.

The Indicator's smooth, confident style and amazing ventilation are combined in a modern design that compliments every type of rider. It's the perfect mix for riding roads, trails and everything in between.
