Abus Taipan lunar silver

The ABUS Taipan is a gravel helmet: it takes what makes a good road helmet — light weight, aero, ventilation — and carries it past the end of the tarmac. Made in Italy.

275 g in size M. One of the lightest helmets in the catalogue, and you feel it on a three-hour ride.

Forced Air Cooling: the vents are linked by internal channels that push air through the helmet instead of letting it sit. The Acti Cage™ — structural reinforcement foamed into the shell — is what allows those larger openings without losing rigidity.

Front Eyewear Port: a recess at the front to stow glasses in an aerodynamic hold when you're not wearing them — no dangling arm, no glasses in a jersey pocket.

Flow Straps™: aerodynamic straps, less drag and above all less wind noise at the ear. Floating Pad clipped onto several anchor points, Ponytail Fit, reflector sticker, lower edge protected, classic push-in buckle. Pads removable and washable.

A magnetic USB-C rechargeable rear light is available as an accessory — or already fitted on the LED version.

M = 54-58 cm, sizes S, M and L, colour lunar silver.
