The MIPS® system has continually been proven to reduce head injuries by reducing rotational forces on your brain during certain impacts. Combined with the high quality EPS foam liner, the Agilis offers plenty of protection and reassurance for the avid road and commuting cyclist. The Wind Tunnel™ ventilation combines active vents with exhaust channels that are chiselled specifically to channel air over directly over and through the helmet to move away excess heat, besides which those same vents help cut the weight of the Agilis right down. Finally, Giro's Roc Loc® 5 fitting system is highly adjustable and offers a precise and comfortable fit, with light, adjustable straps completing the look.
Features:
Hardshell with in-mold HardBody™ lower wrap: two-piece shell combines a tough outer with a polycarbonate lower permanently fused to the liner for durability without excess weight
Integrated MIPS® Brain Protection System: reduces harmful rotational forces on the brain caused by certain impacts for extra safety
ROC LOC® 5 Fit System: allows you to custom-tune the fit tension and fore-aft tilt of a helmet in seconds, using a single hand

FAQs
What does MIPS® stand for and what does it do?
MIPS® stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System. It's a low-friction layer inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational forces on the brain during certain angled impacts, enhancing safety.
How do I know if I have the right size helmet?
The helmet should sit level on your head, about two finger-widths above your eyebrows. The Roc Loc® 5 system allows for fine-tuning the fit. Measure your head circumference and compare it to the sizing chart if available.
Can I use this helmet for activities other than cycling?
This helmet is specifically designed and certified for cycling. It meets safety standards for cycling and is not recommended for other activities like skiing or skateboarding, which require different types of protective gear.
How should I clean the helmet?
Clean the exterior with mild soap and water using a soft cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or solvents. The interior padding can usually be hand-washed separately.
What is the weight of the Giro Agilis MIPS helmet?
The helmet weighs approximately 280g for a size Medium. Larger or smaller sizes will vary slightly.
How do I adjust the Roc Loc® 5 fit system?
While wearing the helmet, push the rear dial forward and down to engage. Turn the dial to tighten or loosen the retention system for a secure and comfortable fit. You can also adjust the tilt.
What is the difference between hardshell and in-mold construction?
The Agilis uses a combination: a tough outer hardshell fused to a lighter in-mold EPS foam liner. This provides durability on the outside and shock absorption within, all while keeping weight down.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too tight or too loose.
Adjust the Roc Loc® 5 fit system dial and fore-aft tilt. Ensure the straps are correctly positioned under your ears and that the chin strap is snug.
Straps are uncomfortable.
Ensure the straps form a 'Y' below your earlobes and are not twisted. Adjust the strap dividers if necessary.
Interior padding feels worn or needs cleaning.
Remove the padding carefully and hand wash with mild soap and water. Allow to air dry completely before reattaching.
Ventilation doesn't seem effective.
Ensure the vents are not blocked by debris or hair. Check that the internal channeling is clear.
