Giro Caden Helmet (MIPS) Review

• Not all of us are conquering mountain roads and setting PBs, instead, it’s about getting from A to B or enjoying a gentle bike ride around town for pleasure. The Caden Helmet is very much designed for those of you who want all the trusted protection of a Giro helmet but with a more urban-inspired design. The Caden is nice and light and yet with the In-Mold shell it’s tough enough to resist damage from a life of commuting and casual riding. A total of 12 air vents also means it’s not only visually cool it’s cool in action too, with internal channels pushing airflow across the scalp for fresh air comfort. When it comes to head protection it’s at the cutting edge too. The tough polycarbonate shell is paired with an EPS liner to absorb impacts and between these two layers is the integrated MIPS technology. While all Giro helmets are designed to reduce as much energy as possible while meeting and exceeding stringent safety standards the addition of the Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS) redirects energy and provides more protection in certain impacts should you be involved in a crash. The Caden is very practical too, with features specifically designed to make city riding an easier experience. Reflective details increase your profile after dark, contributing to greater safety while a lock port means you can easily secure your helmet with your bike when parking up. A removable visor adds the final touch, providing extra shade in the sun or keeping water drops off when it’s raining.  What is MIPS? • MIPS is a Brain Protection System • Rotational motion can cause brain injuries • The low friction layer allows a sliding movement of 10–15 mm, in all directions, reducing rotational motion to the brain during impact • MIPS adds protection Giro Crash Replacement Scheme If you have an accident in any helmet it’s a good idea to replace it. Giro offers the peace of mind that if you have an accident wearing one of their helmets they will replace it at a reduced price. Find out more here.

As with many cyclists, be it mountain bikers, BMX riders or road cyclists we want to take the time to make sure we get the best products. Where cycling is a passion for many we often invest a lot of our time and money into the hobby. And as we know, getting the right products can give us that small competitive advantage either over our actual competitors, our mates or even just beating our own goals. But because we do invest so much in our bikes and our equipment it’s really important to buy from recognised retailers, in our most recent search, we found many products available online for ridiculously (almost laughable) prices. They were just so low that alarm bells should instantly be ringing. That’s why we only recommend buying from the retailers that you really know and trust, names like Wiggle, Chain Reaction and Evans Cycles are just some of those that we use regularly. With these retailers you know you’re in safe hands and can expect great service, great returns policies and if anything was to go wrong great customer service under a warranty claim.
