Bern Macon 2.0 MIPS Helmet

The Macon helmet is a complete classic in the Bern helmet line-up. This year it got a fresh design and features and comes as an updated model, Macon 2.0! It's lighter, safer, and more comfortable than ever. The Macon model has long been considered a helmet for all types of outdoor activities. Its construction uses a thin ABS shell lined with EPS foam to create a strong, but lightweight helmet.

Parameters

• Thin Shell - narrow ABS shell with EPS lining forms a light and durable multisport helmet.
• EPS - hardened polystyrene, material with high shock absorption, the most common cushioning layer used in the production of helmets
• ABS Shell - a thin shell made of very durable plastic for maximum head protection in the event of an impact
• EZ Fit - a system that allows quick size adjustment
• Bike Light Compatible - compatible with Quickmount light
• Bern Profile
• Skate Inspired
• 12 Vents
• Multi Sport - the helmet is certified for cycling, skateboarding and roller skating as well as snowboarding with the possibility of exchanging the winter for the summer liner
• Weight - 376 g

The Bern Macon helmet meets the standards CPSC and EN 1078 (helmets for cyclists and users of skateboards and roller skates) and EN 1077B (helmets for snowboards and skis).

MIPS

• The helmet equipped with MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) technology consists of three main parts. EPS polystyrene shell, MIPS sliding insert and elastomers that connect the first two parts.
• The human brain is the source of inspiration for the MIPS patent
• The brain is surrounded by cerebrospinal fluid, thanks to which the brain moves in the skull and is protected from shocks. By mimicking the natural protection of the brain, the unique MIPS technology also works, which reliably protects your brain from shocks and reduces the shocks that are transmitted to it.
• A thin friction layer of MIPS is placed between the inner padded part and the upper EPS shell of the helmet using specifically developed flexible handles. Its arrangement does not in any way disturb the overall appearance or shape of the helmet, does not reduce comfort, nor does it disrupt the technical properties. At the moment of impact, the MIPS layer moves together with the head, regardless of the direction of impact, and limits the rotation of the brain, which can be very dangerous.
