Alpina Taunus Gravel MIPS matt white - Gravel Helmet
Product information "Taunus Gravel MIPS matt white - Gravel Helmet"
What’s more, the Taunus Ravel MIPS ensures safety thanks to a Microshell outer shell combined with an EPS inner shell. This makes the helmet nice and light and comfortable to wear. Large air vents ensure a good supply of fresh air to your head when you grip the lower part of your drop bars and go full throttle. At its best, your gravel ride will take you to a new place. With the Taunus Gravel MIPS, you’ll definitely be ready for new adventures.
Features – Taunus Gravel MIPS
- MIPS: a system that protects against brain injuries that can be caused by rotational forces during an impact
- Hi-EPS: small air chambers absorb impact forces to protect the head
- Inmold: the thermal bond between the upper and lower shells makes the helmet lightweight and sturdy
- Edge Protect: increases the helmet’s durability by covering the edges
- Ceramic Shell: shatter- and scratch-resistant, UV-stable and anti-static
- Run System Ergo MIPS: size adjustment system with integrated MIPS
- Shield Protect: the removable visor protects against both flying debris and direct sunlight
- Weight: approx. 295 g

MIPS
MIPS is a system that protects against brain injuries that can be caused by rotational forces during an impact. The low-friction insert allows for 10 to 15 mm of sliding movement in all directions, thereby reducing rotational movement in the event of a fall. MIPS thus offers additional protection.
HI-EPS
The inner shell of every Alpina helmet is made from Hi-EPS (‘High Expanded Polystyrene’). It consists of microscopic air chambers which optimally absorb the forces exerted during an impact. Despite providing optimum protection, HI-EPS allows for extra-thin wall thicknesses and slim helmet shapes.
INMOLD
In the Inmold production process, the polycarbonate outer shell is ‘fused’ with the EPS granules of the helmet body under high heat and intense pressure. This creates a large-area, inseparable bond between the outer and inner shells. Advantage: the helmet is very light yet extremely sturdy.
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, it protects the hands when handling the helmet; secondly, in the event of an impact, the neck and shoulder area is protected from scratches when it comes into contact with the lower edge of the helmet.
CERAMIC SHELL
All Alpina helmets manufactured using the Inmold process feature this shatter- and scratch-resistant polycarbonate shell. The preform is stretched under intense heat to the shape of the finished helmet and pressed onto its Hi-EPS core under high pressure. The material is characterised by several qualities at once: it is shatter- and scratch-resistant, UV-stable and antistatic.
RUN SYSTEM ERGO MIPS
The first fit system with integrated MIPS. The RUN SYSTEM ERGO FLEX MIPS offers a personalised, height-adjustable fit for the helmet. This combination not only enhances comfort but also ensures additional safety in the event of impacts involving rotational forces.
SHIELD PROTECT
The removable visor protects against both flying debris and direct sunlight.
