Elemento WG11 Road Helmet
Buy from Merlin Cycles

Overview
In the quest for ultimate performance, Kask want you to expect more from a helmet, more than just aerodynamics and lean weight. The Elemento features a revolutionary, new design with advanced technologies to deliver the very best safety and thermal comfort no matter what you ride: road, cross-country, cyclocross, or gravel (or all four).The Italian brand studied rider performance and concluded an athlete’s temperature and comfort is just as important as a helmet’s weight or aerodynamics when it comes to optimising performance. So they set about creating a revolutionary helmet with the help of long time partner, the INEOS Grenadiers Cycling Team. The Elemento is designed for professional and semi-professional athletes. Who need the best standard in aerodynamics, ventilation, and performance; as well as safety expect nothing short of a revolutionary helmet for training and racing. Compared to the Protone Icon, Kask says the Elemento offers a 1.5 per cent reduction in aerodynamic drag, alongside an estimated 0.26°C reduction in the head temperature. Fluid Carbon Fluid Carbon 12’s composite technopolymer absorbs more energy from an impact than traditional materials and distributes the force generated more evenly across the entire helmet. A new composite material that allows to reduces the thickness of EPS from the inner shell, in order to improve ventilation and aerodynamics. It also generates a better energy distribution in case of an impact and guarantees a low friction surface between the helmet and the impact surface. Multipod Multipod is KASK’s proprietary 3D-printed internal padding. This elastomer material enables the helmet to better withstand the energy generated by linear and rotational impacts. Multipod functions isotropically, meaning it withstands the energy from impacts the same regardless of the direction in which the force is applied. OCTOFIT+ The new overinjected rubber dial provides improved finger grip. The vertical stabiliser has been redesigned for greater stability providing a customised fit for riders with longer hair. The ergonomic neck support ensures a fast and secure fit against the back of the head. There is a reflective graphic at the back to aid rider visibility
