Our extensive wind tunnel testing, using wind averaged drag calculations to assess performance in a wide range of conditions, reveals that the Synthe is nearly as fast as time trial helmets in a standard \u201croad\u201d position, without compromising the cooling power your body needs for maximum power output. That cooling power is immediately apparent on the road, besting our test results and nearly matching the temperatures recorded for a bare headform over 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-40028200-1418813488.jpg\" data-fileid=\"460592\" data-fileext=\"jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-fileid=\"460592\" class=\"ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed\" alt=\"ccs-62657-0-40028200-1418813488.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-40028200-1418813488.jpg\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Even with all of this performance, weight is an impressive 250 grams for a size medium CPSC compliant Synthe, making it a great choice when you \u2019re battling for KOM\u2019s or a personal best at the summit.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-52478800-1418813632.jpg\" data-fileid=\"460593\" data-fileext=\"jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-fileid=\"460593\" class=\"ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed\" alt=\"ccs-62657-0-52478800-1418813632.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-52478800-1418813632.jpg\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Features:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wind Tunnel-Aided Design for<\/li>\n<li>Aero Efficiency on the Road<\/li>\n<li>Integrated Aero Mesh Panels<\/li>\n<li>Eyewear Docking Ports<\/li>\n<li>X-Static\u00ae Padding<\/li>\n<li>Featherweight Webbing<\/li>\n<li>with Slimline\u2122 Buckle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Construction:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In-Mold Polycarbonate Shell with EPS Liner<\/li>\n<li>Roc Loc\u00ae Air Fit System<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ventilation:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>19 Vents with Internal Channeling<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a class=\"ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-04735500-1418813720.jpg\" data-fileid=\"460595\" data-fileext=\"jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-fileid=\"460595\" class=\"ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed\" alt=\"ccs-62657-0-04735500-1418813720.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-04735500-1418813720.jpg\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Contact your local Giro dealer for more details.
