On 25 February 2026, MET and Tadej Pogačar release two limited-edition helmets: the Manta and the Trenta 3K Carbon. The finish shimmers and changes colour with the light and the viewing angle.
Two helmets, two jobs
The Trenta 3K Carbon is a climber's helmet: it weighs 260 grams, has 24 vents and is built for heat and long climbs. The Manta is the fast brother, with NACA vents and a more closed shape. Depending on size, both sit between 240 and 290 grams.
The Manta carries the Safe-T Orbital adjustment system and a magnetic Fidlock buckle. Both models have Mips.
The finish
The appeal is that the colour is not fixed. The helmet looks different in the morning sun than in the shade under trees. MET describes the design as ethereal.
Whether you like it is a matter of taste. One thing is clear: this is not a team logo stuck on top, it is a paint job of its own.
Availability
When MET says limited, it means limited. The Manta was around 280 euros at launch. We stock both models in the colour Lilla, size M.
