Info About Venting: |
These vents work great 2 up front to push the airflow in and 2 in the back for exit and the rest up top to let the heat out. These are all controlled by a glove friendly slider.

Additional Comments: This is by far the most comfortable helmet I have tried on. Giro has taken alot from its motor sports division to come up with this level of comfort.
The audio package is dialed in so you can listen to your tunes and use your cell phone.
Coming soon will be a hook up instead of your cell phone it will work with Talk about radios. |

| Giro G10 Audio 2005 Manufacturer Description |

The G10 is the new freestyle boss, and it's right on time
for riders pushing toward big moves and bolder lines in wide open terrain. Featuring
skate-style shape with progressive lines and wide-angle cut for great peripheral
vision and gapless goggle fit. The G10 Audio helmet comes pre-equipped with
the TuneUps II Audio Earpads offering on the fly audio enjoyment and LINK capability
for your cell or 2-way radio.
Features:
- EPS Liners: Thousands of tests prove that EPS
offers the most consistent performance in a wide range of conditions and that
gram for gram it absorbs more impact energy than other liner materials. Plus
it's incredibly light. No other material brings all of these benefits together.
- In-Mold Construction: In-mold construction fuses
a tough polycarbonate outer shell with the helmet's impact-absorbing foam
liner for extra durability without excess weight. The fusion of shell and
liner also allows Giro to sculpt better ventilation systems, so In-mold helmets
can be lighter and cooler than traditional helmets.
- Super Cool: Vents move cool, fresh air through
the helmet while radiating heat and stale air out. By maximizing efficiency
and optimizing vent shapes, the collective cooling power of Super Cool vents
helps to regulate your core temperature and keep you feeling fresh all day.
- Super Fit: Super Fit is the unique bland of science
and art behind Giro helmets' reputation for great fit, feel and looks. That's
because Giro helmets fit up to 98% of the human population while also being
scaled to match the proportions of the human body.
- Thermostat: Thermostat ventilation control allows
you to custom tune airflow instantly with a simple, low-profile control button
on the outside of the helmet. No other system is faster or easier to adjust,
and nothing is more effective at keeping you fresh.
- Removable Earpads: Removable earpads allow you
to adapt your helmet to changes in the weather and riding conditions. They're
a snap to install or remove, they lock into the helmet securely and they offer
extra warmth whenever you want it - without restricting your hearing.
- Goggle Notch: A channel in Giro helmets that
is designed for hassle free positioning of your goggles and a snug, gapless
fit with the helmet. It also works in tandem with a security loop at the back
of the helmet to keep your goggles with you in the event of a fall.
- Safety Certification: ASTM F2040 Safety certified.
- TuneUps II: Offers all of the performance of the standard TuneUps,
plus LINK technology from Skullcandy that allows you to plug-in to your audio
player and your cell phone at the same time. The LINK features a Y-split audio
cord with an in-line volume control and built-in microphone for hands-free
phone use. Includes adapters for use with most phones and a travel case that
holds 10 CD's or your audio player.
- Audio Warning: There are additional risks when using TuneUps or other
earphones. Read and understand these risks posted in the Owner's Manual.
