Road Bike Helmet, TRENTA MIPS, WHITE BLACK

MET Trenta MIPS – White/Black

The MET Trenta MIPS is a road bike helmet for high demands and long rides, developed with a focus on aerodynamics, ventilation and safety. The MIPS-C2 solution sits between padding and EPS and can reduce harmful rotational forces at certain impact angles. MET combines this with a NACA front opening and a flat rear deflector (25°), so cool air flows through and warm air escapes efficiently – without unnecessary air resistance. In size M, the helmet weighs approximately 250 g; available in S, M and L with 52–61 cm head circumference. Additionally, the Trenta MIPS is listed by Virginia Tech as a five-star helmet, which further confirms its high protection performance.

• CE certified; sizes S (52–56), M (56–58), L (58–61); weight approx. 240/250/285 g

Technical Details and Features

The in-mould polycarbonate shell with EPS core forms the basis for a robust, lightweight setup that proves itself on ambitious road bike tours. The Safe-T Orbital system offers comprehensive 360° support as well as four height levels and two occipital positions, so the helmet sits precisely and pressure-free – including LED compatibility. Aerodynamically, the NACA inlet, tube-shaped tail and 25° rear deflector work together to increase airflow and direct exhaust air specifically over the large outlets. The integrated sunglasses port keeps things organised, while Air Mesh padding and Air Lite straps increase wearing comfort over long distances. According to MET, the Trenta MIPS weighs approximately 240/250/285 g in S/M/L and covers 52–61 cm head circumference. Additionally, the helmet is Virginia Tech Five-Star listed – an independent assessment that considers both linear and rotational loads.

Applications and Benefits

The Trenta MIPS shows its strengths on fast road rides around Lake Zurich as well as on long Alpine passes, where constant ventilation and a secure fit are crucial. The 19 vents with internal channel guidance noticeably boost airflow, which keeps your head cool during summer temperatures and steep climbs. In the group, you additionally benefit from the flow-optimised rear shape, which reduces air resistance in the peloton without restricting cooling. For commuting routes and descents at dusk, the reflective details increase visibility, and the ponytail compatibility makes fitting easier for different hairstyles. Thanks to the MIPS equipment, the helmet combines safety and comfort for training, racing and quick after-work rides throughout Switzerland.

Fit, Variants and Accessories

The internal shape is designed for stability and comfort, the 360° strap distributes pressure evenly and minimises hot spots even on long stages. The sizes S (52–56 cm), M (56–58 cm), L (58–61 cm) cover the common head circumferences cleanly; please measure just above eyebrows and ears for the right choice. The White/Black look shown here is subtle and versatile to combine; this model is available in three variants from us. For additional sweat control and durability, the optional Dual Gel Front Pad from MET can be retrofitted, and the USB LED light improves visibility in city traffic. This keeps the helmet modular and adaptable to different conditions in Switzerland.
