Alpina Carapax 2.0 - MTB Helmet
Product information "Carapax 2.0 - MTB Helmet"
The Run System Ergo Flex ensures maximum comfort and safety. The adjustment system impresses with its filigree design and fixes the helmet evenly to the head at 360 degrees. There is no more individual, smooth and comfortable way to adjust a bike helmet. Another plus for comfort: the removable padding. It always feels comfortable to wear - no matter how hot the terrain gets.
The low weight of the Carapax 2.0 is due to the inmold production, in which the upper shell is thermally bonded to the Hi-EPS. This results in a firm surface connection, which is responsible for a very stable construction. The lower edge of the helmet is protected by the additional Edge Protect polycarbonate shell. Thanks to the seamless connection, it nestles seamlessly against the upper shell.
For maximum safety on rough trails, the rear and the temple area are pulled further down. This creates even greater head coverage. Large ventilation openings allow optimum ventilation, fly screens keep insects away from the head and the height-adjustable shield guarantees additional protection in the field of vision.
Features - Carapax 2.0
- Airflow Venting: directs cooling air along the head
- Fly Net: the front ventilation openings of the helmet are equipped with a mesh fabric
- Ceramic Shell: break- and scratch-resistant, UV-stable and antistatic
- Custom Fit: the optimum fit can be adjusted using a wheel at the back of the head
- Edge Protect: increases the durability of the helmet by covering the edges
- Ergomatic: closure can be operated with one hand and remains firmly closed in the event of a fall
- Hi-EPS: small air chambers absorb forces in the event of an impact to protect the head
- Inmold: the thermal connection between the upper and lower shell makes the helmet light and stable
- Shield Protect: the removable shield protects against splashing dirt as well as direct sunlight
- Run System Ergo Flex: a smooth-running rotary wheel allows the helmet size to be adjusted
- Y-Clip: guarantees precise adjustment of the seating position and therefore the best possible protection
- Weight: approx. 256 g
Technologies
AIR FLOW VENTING
Alpina developers spend a lot of time and energy on continuously improving the ventilation of our bike helmets. Through wind tunnel-tested arrangement of the vents, our engineers create a "Venturi" effect inside the helmet, which cools the head, leads to less sweat and higher performance.
FLY NET
The front ventilation openings of the helmet are fitted with a mesh fabric. This fulfills the same function as an insect screen and prevents insect bites on the scalp in hot and humid riding periods and locations.
CERAMIC SHELL
All Inmold-manufactured helmets from Alpina are fitted with this shatterproof and scratch-resistant polycarbonate shell. The blank is stretched under high heat to the shape of the later helmet and pressed onto its Hi-EPS body under high pressure. The material is characterized by several qualities at the same time: It is break- and scratch-resistant, UV-stable and antistatic.
CUSTOM FIT
Different head shapes require a flexible fitting system. In combination with the Run System, Custom Fit ensures a non-slip fit. The neckband at the back of the head can be tilted in several stages and grips the head gently and without pressure points.
EDGE PROTECT
Edge Protect is a manufacturing process that ensures Inmold helmets have no sharp edges. This reduces the risk of injury in two ways: firstly, hands are protected when handling the helmet, and secondly, in the event of an impact, the neck and shoulder area are protected from scratches on contact with the lower edge of the helmet.
ERGOMATIC
Tried and tested hundreds of thousands of times and used in all Alpina bicycle helmets: the familiar belt buckle with red push button and multi-stage automatic latching mechanism. Ergomatic can be operated with one hand - uphill you can loosen the strap, downhill you can tighten it - and cannot open itself in the event of a fall.
HI-EPS
The inner shell of every Alpina helmet is made of Hi-EPS ("High Expanded Polystyrene"). It consists of microscopically small air chambers which optimally absorb the forces acting on the helmet in the event of an impact. HI-EPS ensures extra-thin wall thicknesses and narrow helmet shapes despite its optimum protective effect.
INMOLD
In the Inmold production process, the polycarbonate upper shell of the helmet is "bonded" to the EPS granules of the helmet body under high heat and pressure. This creates a large and inseparable bond between the upper and lower shells. Advantage: The helmet is very light and extremely stable at the same time.
SHIELD PROTECT
The removable shield protects against splashing dirt as well as direct sunlight.
RUN SYSTEM ERGO Flex
the Run System allows the size of all Alpina helmets to be individually adjusted using a smooth-running dial. The Run System Ergo Flex is the lightest and most comfortable adjustment system from Alpina. The filigree construction hugs the head evenly, thereby increasing protection. The Run System Ergo Flex can be adjusted using a fine ratchet - there is no more individual, smooth and comfortable way to adjust a helmet.
Y-CLIP
A helmet can only protect as well as it stays in the optimum position on impact. The fixation of the two straps under the ear plays a decisive role in this. The "Y-Clip" system from Alpina guarantees millimeter-precise adjustment - in a matter of seconds.
