IF Award Design Kask Valegro
Absolute freedom in the wild outdoors: every athlete deserves a comfortable, light helmet even during extreme exertion. Valegro, developed in collaboration with Team INEOS Grenadiers, offers extreme lightness and top-level ventilation even on the toughest climbs and hottest roads. The profile of Valegro's polycarbonate shell has been tested and refined by KASK’s engineers in conjunction with a wind-tunnel to get the best results in terms of thermo-cooling performance.
The VALEGRO offers advanced ventilation and an impressive weight of just 180g (size small). This new design offers maximum cooling through 37 ventilation holes with new breathable and quick-dry padding. The 5mm layer of fast-wicking thermoformed tri-dimensional padding is antistatic, bacteriostatic, heat regulating and moisture transferring using Resistex Carbon. Alongside this cutting edge technology, the chin pad with eco-leather strap contributes to a helmet that’s comfortable to wear, all day.
FEATURES:
- HYVENT - Helmet structure is designed to maximize airflow and thermal regulation of the rider's head.
- OCTOFIT - Rubberised Micro Dial adjuster provides improved finger grip. Floating cradle contact points combine internal gel pads for optimum comfort. These supports are designed to oscillate freely through 180° allowing a perfect fit on any shaped head. The Skeletal Brackets of the cradle have been designed and refined to provide the best fit and support whilst being as light as possible.
