Abus AirBreaker 2.0 MIPS off white

The ABUS AirBreaker 2.0 MIPS is an ultralight road helmet — 230 g in size M — built for riders chasing performance. Optimised ventilation, a snug fit and Mips rotational protection: this is the brand's race helmet, developed together with professional athletes. Shown here in off white.

What sets this generation apart is the Aero Blade™, an additional component at the upper rear of the helmet made from material reinforced with injected carbon fibres: it cuts drag and increases airflow while stiffening the structure, without adding weight. Inside, the Acti Cage™ structure foamed into the EPS reinforces the helmet and allows larger ventilation openings, while the Mips padding — a low-friction shell against the head — counteracts rotational forces in a fall, without interfering with ventilation or adding weight.

For cooling, "eyebrow intakes" on the forehead and enlarged air openings deliver a noticeable gain, backed by Forced Air Cooling, which links the vents through internal channels. The ventilation stays fully noticeable even with sunglasses fitted — held in a secure, aerodynamic position by the Front Eyewear Port, a defined recess at the front of the helmet.

The rest follows suit: Zoom™ Spin rear-wheel adjustment, a Ponytail Fit opening for long hair, a Floating Pad clicked in at several points for extra flexibility and airflow, and removable, washable pads. The Flow Straps™ Pro are stitched — so no strap dividers — with a slightly thinner upper section to minimise contact with the skin. The chin strap closes one-handed with the magnetic FIDLOCK buckle, gloves on or off. Built with the in-mould process (EPS foamed into the polycarbonate shell) with lower edge protection against scratches and impacts. No visor, no peak; suitable for adults and teenagers.
