This Review Sponsored by:
| Giro Recruit 2005 Manufacturer Description |
Kids tend to know what the pros are riding and they crave
that same level of performance and style. The Recruit offers a wide-angle cut
creating a gapless goggle fit with and won't compromise peripheral vision.
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.
- Shell: High-impact ABS shell is bonded to the
EPS liner.
- 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.
- Ventilation: 13 radiating vents with ballistic
nylon mesh covers.
- Earpads: Fixed earpads are soft and offer full
coverage for warmth without compromising 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.
