Product Information

Full details

The Giro Eclipse Spherical MIPS Road Helmet is designed for competitive road and gravel cyclists who prioritize aerodynamics without sacrificing cooling or safety. This helmet excels at streamlining airflow to minimize drag, making it a top choice for high-speed racing, though its specialized aero-focused design means it carries a higher price point than entry-level recreational helmets.

FAQs

What is Spherical Technology?

It is a ball-and-socket design that allows the outer liner to rotate around the inner liner during an impact, helping to redirect forces away from the brain.

Is this helmet suitable for gravel racing?

Yes, its combination of aerodynamics and ventilation makes it ideal for high-speed gravel racing and mixed-surface events.

Can I replace the internal padding?

Yes, the Ionic+ padding can be removed for cleaning or replacement if it wears out over time.

Does the helmet come with a visor?

No, the Eclipse is an aero-focused road helmet and does not include a visor.

How do I know if the fit is correct?

The helmet should not move significantly when you shake your head, and it should sit level on your forehead without blocking your vision.

Is the MIPS system replaceable?

The MIPS system is integrated into the structural design of the helmet and is not intended for consumer removal or replacement.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels unstable or wobbles

Adjust the Roc Loc 5 Air dial at the back and ensure the side strap triangles are positioned just below your ears.

Padding smells or stays wet

Remove the Ionic+ pads and hand wash with mild soap, then allow them to air dry thoroughly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior aerodynamic profile for reduced drag
  • Advanced rotational impact protection via Spherical MIPS
  • Excellent ventilation for an aero-road helmet
  • Antimicrobial padding provides long-term comfort
  • High-visibility reflective decals included

Cons

  • Premium pricing compared to non-aero models
  • Heavier than ultra-lightweight climbing helmets
  • Specific styling may not appeal to all riders

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure maximum protection, adjust the Roc Loc 5 Air system so the helmet sits level on your forehead, approximately one finger-width above your eyebrows. Tighten the rear dial until secure but comfortable. For care, wipe the outer shell with a damp, soft cloth and mild soap. The Ionic+ interior padding is removable and can be hand-washed in cool water with mild detergent; allow it to air dry completely before reattaching. Avoid storing the helmet in extreme temperatures, such as inside a car on a hot day, as this can degrade the EPS foam liner.
