Specialized Camber sisak

Versatile head protection for young and old

The Specialized Camber meets the safety standards for bicycle helmets, whether you are 5 years old or an adult. It impresses with its technical features, is very comfortable to wear and can be adjusted so that it fits perfectly on your head and offers protection.

highlights

• The Camber helmet has received the highest 5-Star Virginia Tech® Helmet Rating™ award from the internationally renowned Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University
• The MIPS system is a low-friction layer that can deflect 10 to 15mm in all directions in the event of a fall. Studies show that this minimizes rotational forces and thus avoids head injuries
• With sizes from XS to XL, the helmet is available in 5 shell sizes and is designed to provide a comfortable fit with little material. It provides a streamlined fit for a wide range of riders
• Easy-to-adjust one-size headset SX fit system with adjustable Tri-Fix chin straps ensure a comfortable fit
• 4th Dimension Cooling System optimizes ventilation
• In-Molded Shell improves protection and reduces weight
• This helmet is ANGi-ready and a sensor can be retrofitted to the fit system

Technologies used

In this chapter we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses in this product.

MIPS
The MIPS® safety system was developed to provide additional protection for helmets in numerous accidents. In certain impact situations, the MIPS system can reduce dangerous forces that might otherwise be transmitted to the helmet wearer's head.

1. Conventional helmets are designed and tested for a straight impact. In most cases, however, the impact is at an angle, which can cause rotational movements for the head.

2. This rotational movement can cause brain injury.

3. The low-friction shell is designed to help reduce rotational movement of the head in certain cases of angled impact.

Straight impact - oblique impact

The brain is typically more sensitive to rotational movement than linear movement because it has a shear strength similar to that of water or gel. When rotational movement causes different parts of the brain to move at different times, the tissues can be stretched, causing concussions or other brain injuries.

Rotational motion is a common cause of concussion and more serious brain injury from an oblique impact to the head. The MIPS system consists of a low-friction shell that is fixed inside the helmet. The low-friction shell is designed to slide slightly inside the helmet in the event of an accident, allowing forces to be directed away from the head. It is said to help reduce the risk of brain injuries.

Most conventional helmets are designed for a straight impact, but in most cases the impact is at an angle. The low-friction shell can reduce the rotational forces of an oblique impact.

Security system with the brain as a model

Unlike conventional helmets, which are primarily designed and tested for a straight impact, the low-friction shell of the MIPS system mimics the brain's own protection system against rotational movement. The cerebrospinal fluid is our natural defense system that allows the brain to move offset to the skull.
