Oakley DRT3 Trail MIPS Helmet (Matte Black/Satin)

It doesn't matter if you're a trail-riding veteran or just getting into the thrills of mountain biking, when you're kicking up the dirt, there's always a chance you'll take an unexpected trip to the dirt. And so when that front wheel lets go, bars clip a tree or you get a drop-off a bit wrong, the DRT3 MIPS Helmet ensures your head is protected. The impact-absorbing foam and tough outer shell are what work together to minimise the damaging forces of any impacts to your head. That tough outer shell also offers extra durability, just what you need for the rough and tumble of mountain biking where overhanging branches and bushes can often catch you out.

 

 

The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head. Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions in oblique hits to the head. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head.
