New MET helmets with a winning design: MET launches two Tadej Pogačar helmets on the market

Both helmets have an iridescent paint finish that shimmers in different colours depending on the incidence of light and viewing angle. This surface refers to the "Dream State", where Pogačar says it experiences its strongest moments. Both models are available in three sizes from 52 to 61 centimetres head circumference and come with a helmet soft bag. Like the model Manta Tadej Pogačar performed well in the last testyou can read here.

The Trenta 3K Carbon model

The Trenta 3K Carbon (e.g. available here) replaces parts of the EPS foam with a 3K airframe carbon structure. This design creates a continuous air channel from the air intake to the rear. The 24 vents work with internal channels and are designed to provide constant cooling at both low and high speeds. The Safe-T orbital adjustment system enables 360-degree adjustment as well as vertical and occipital adjustment. Mips Air Node is integrated and is designed to provide rotational protection without additional weight. The helmet weighs 250 grams in size S, 260 grams in M and 290 grams in L.

The Manta model

The Manta has a lowered, tubular rear end, which was developed in the wind tunnel at the NEWTON laboratory. The internal airflow with "NACA-Vent" is designed to ensure cooling despite the aero profile. Mips-C2 is seamlessly integrated into the in-mould polycarbonate construction with EPS. The helmet uses a Fidlock magnetic fastener and Air-Lite straps. With 15 ventilation openings and internal air channels, the Manta weighs 240 grams in S, 250 grams in M and 270 grams in L. According to the manufacturer, Pogačar prefers to use this model for fast races >> available here at a reduced price.
