The best KED MIPS-Helmets for adults

Conclusion: Maximum protection for every driving style

In the city, on country roads or in challenging terrain - the safety of your head should never be neglected when cycling. As a leading German manufacturer of high-quality bicycle helmets, KED relies on advanced technologies to provide cyclists with the best possible protection. An essential part of this effort is the integration of the MIPStechnology in our adult bike helmets. In this product guide we will show you the advantages of MIPS-Helmets and present you our most popular models. 

What is MIPS?

The Multi-directional Impact Protection System (MIPS) is a revolutionary safety technology developed by neurosurgeons and scientists. The technology is based on the knowledge that the human brain is particularly sensitive to rotational movements, which occur in most real-world accidents. MIPS works through a low-friction inner layer that allows the helmet to move independently of the head, thereby absorbing dangerous rotational energies before they can reach the brain.

Expert tip:

MIPS-You can recognize helmets by the yellow inner shell, which can be easily moved (about 10-15 mm in all directions).

The benefits of MIPS-Helmets

MIPS-Helmets provide improved protection over traditional bicycle helmets by reducing rotational forces during impact. The low-friction shell of the MIPS® Brain Protection System allows sliding of 10-15 mm in all directions at an oblique impact angle and can thus efficiently reduce the rotational forces acting on the brain. This technology is suitable for every cyclist - whether you are a passionate MTB rider, an urban commuter or a weekend cyclist.

Our tip:

The MIPSYou should never treat the layer with aggressive cleaning agents or screw it tightly. A damp cloth is completely sufficient.

Frequently asked questions about the topic

What is Mips on a bicycle helmet?

Mips is an additional system in helmets marked accordingly. It can reduce rotational movements in certain angled impact scenarios. How it is integrated differs from helmet model to helmet model.

How does Mips work in a bicycle helmet?

A low friction layer inside the helmet allows a limited relative movement between head and helmet in certain angled impact situations. The system is an additional component and cannot prevent injuries in general.

Do all KED bicycle helmets have Mips?

No. KED carries models with and without Mips. You can tell whether a helmet has the system from the product marking and the technical details on the relevant product page.

Is a bicycle helmet with Mips necessary for every use?

The choice depends on your intended use, your priorities and the specific model. Regardless of the technology, the right size, a stable fit and a correctly adjusted strap system are decisive.

Are there KED Mips helmets for city, MTB and sport?

KED offers Mips models marked accordingly for different intended uses. Which categories and sizes are currently available is shown in the Mips collection on kedahead.de.

Does Mips change the fit of a bicycle helmet?

The fit always depends on the model as a whole and on your head shape. Try the helmet on, set the fit system and watch for an even, pressure free fit. Do not choose by a single technology alone.

How do I find the right size for a bicycle helmet with Mips?

Measure the head circumference at the widest point of the head, about two fingers above the eyebrows. Compare the measurement with the model's size range. The helmet should sit level, firmly and free of pressure, and must not shift with the chin strap closed.

How do I clean and care for a bicycle helmet with Mips?

Clean the shell, straps and padding according to the model's care instructions. As a rule, lukewarm water, mild soap and a soft cloth are enough. Avoid solvents, aggressive cleaners and strong heat.

When should a bicycle helmet with Mips be replaced after a crash?

If the helmet has taken an impact in a crash, it should not be used any further. Damage to the material structure is not always visible. Also follow the notes in the user manual.

Where can I buy KED bicycle helmets with Mips online?

At kedahead.de you will find a wide selection of KED bicycle helmets with Mips for city, touring and sporty rides. Compare sizes, colours and the specification of each and order the helmet that suits you directly from the manufacturer.
