Met has announced the new Terranova helmet, designed for technical all-mountain and trail riding.
The Met Terranova has increased head coverage compared to a standard mountain bike helmet.
The internal air-channelling of the helmet allows efficient ventilation, and the visor is tool-free adjustable and flex injected to bend when there is an impact against it.
This feature helps to manage extra rotational forces transferred to the rider’s neck in a crash.
Met has worked closely with MIPS to achieve efficient ventilation and at the same time enhance the helmet’s safety features.
Featuring the MIPS-C2 brain protection system, the Met Terranova is able to slide relative to the head in the case of a crash, redirecting damaging rotational motion.
The new Met Terranova will be available in September in six different colourways.
