FOX Proframe RS MHDRN Fullface sisak

Lightweight head protection of the latest kind

The Proframe RS combines the light weight and breathability of the Proframe with next-generation safety and performance. This helmet is equipped with the innovative MIPS™ Integra protection system, which combines an EPP liner with an EPS layer and reduces the rotational forces acting on the brain in the event of a fall.

The helmet was specially developed for off-road and enduro pilots. The helmet's increased ventilation and reduced surface contact ensure a cool head even on long rides, while the ionic and antimicrobial liner and cheek pads ensure optimal comfort and a perfect fit. The BOA® retention system provides even more security for a precise fit that is exceptionally precise in this category, and the FIDLOCK magnetic closure can be opened and closed without any problems, even with gloves.

The 3-position adjustable visor is goggle compatible and those who want to capture all those fast-paced moments forever will be delighted with the detachable GoPro mount under the visor of the Fox Proframe RS mountain bike helmet.

Technologies used

In this chapter we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses in this product.

MIPS
The MIPS® safety system was developed to provide additional protection for helmets in numerous accidents. In certain impact situations, the MIPS system can reduce dangerous forces that might otherwise be transmitted to the helmet wearer's head.

1. Conventional helmets are designed and tested for a straight impact. In most cases, however, the impact is at an angle, which can cause rotational movements for the head.

2. This rotational movement can cause brain injury.

3. The low-friction shell is designed to help reduce rotational movement of the head in certain cases of angled impact.

Straight impact - oblique impact

The brain is typically more sensitive to rotational movement than linear movement because it has a shear strength similar to that of water or gel. When rotational movement causes different parts of the brain to move at different times, the tissues can be stretched, causing concussions or other brain injuries.

Rotational motion is a common cause of concussion and more serious brain injury from an oblique impact to the head. The MIPS system consists of a low-friction shell that is fixed inside the helmet. The low-friction shell is designed to slide slightly inside the helmet in the event of an accident, allowing forces to be directed away from the head. It is said to help reduce the risk of brain injuries.

Most conventional helmets are designed for a straight impact, but in most cases the impact is at an angle. The low-friction shell can reduce the rotational forces of an oblique impact.

Security system with the brain as a model

Unlike conventional helmets, which are primarily designed and tested for a straight impact, the low-friction shell of the MIPS system mimics the brain's own protection system against rotational movement. The cerebrospinal fluid is our natural defense system that allows the brain to move offset to the skull.
