TECH INFO
ALREADY 28 YEARS OF INNOVATIONS Ever since it was founded MET has led the way in developing innovative solutions for keeping cyclists safe. Complex systems require a complete engineering package. By bringing together our expertise in design, software, electronics, predictive modelling, virtual analysis, accidentology, ergonomics, anatomy and industrial design, MET is able to develop systems which compliment each other perfectly thus making it possible to offer products which provide outstanding performance. Let’s take as an example the brand new Drone Wide Body, the most aerodynamic helmet ever designed, or what about the Parachute, the lightest full-face helmet in the world, the result is a clever mix of functionality and safety criteria which, with each new project, challenges the status quo and constantly pushes a little further those limits which others imagined had been set for ever. The company’s head office is located in Talamona, a small town in the heart of the Italian Alps. It is no coincidence that the MET brand has always been associated with the values which characterize its Alpine heritage: efficiency, attention to detail, design, innovation, high-performance, reliability and sustainable development. Since 1987, MET is unrivalled in the field of developing innovative protective gear for cyclists.

ALL THE ADVANTAGES OF THE NEW OCCIPITAL RETENTION SYSTEM - THE SAFE-T ADVANCED WEIGHT AND COMFORT
HELPS ABSORB PART OF THE IMPACT ENERGY AND REDUCE THE RISK OF CONSEQUENT BRAIN DAMAGE
Like all occipital retention systems in the 2015 MET range, the new Safe-T Advanced goes around the whole circumference of the head. Unlike most of our competitors’ systems, it does not push the back of the head against the front part of the helmet, but instead keeps the helmet away from the head. By allowing the helmet to rotate very slightly in the event of an oblique impact, it helps absorb part of the impact energy and reduce the risk of consequent brain damage.
When you reach a high level of performance, each gram counts. By reducing the weight by over 20% the weight of the new Safe-T Advanced compared to the previous system, we have obtained a really significant increase in comfort and performance while reducing tiredness. The contact area has been increased yet pressure on the head has been reduced thanks to a more even distribution.
FLOATING SUSPENSION RING Like all occipital retention systems in the 2015 MET range, the new Safe-T Advanced goes around the whole circumference of the head. Unlike most of our competitors’ systems, it does not push the back of the head against the front part of the helmet, but instead keeps the helmet away from the head. By allowing the helmet to rotate very slightly in the event of an oblique impact, it helps absorb part of the impact energy and reduce the risk of consequent brain damage.
MORE PRECISE By reducing the space between notches on the central adjustment wheel, we have increased adjustment precision by 25% compared to the previous system. The vertical adjustment has three positions, with up to 18mm adjustment range compared to the two positions and adjustment range which was limited to 8mm on the previous system.
SIZE Fitted on all the mid to high end models of our range, the new occipital retention system, the Safe-T Advanced, increases the circumference adjustment available by about 1 cm compared to previous system. Those cyclists who previously needed an L size may now find that the M size fits them well. Others who were at the upper limit of the L size will now have greater manoeuvrability and will even have enough room to wear an under helmet cap in the winter.

ALL THE ADVANTAGES OF GEL 02 INTERIOR FOAM PADS ADAPT TO ANY HEAD SHAPE
GEL 02 PADS CAN BE BOUGHT SEPARATELY AND FIT ALL MODELS IN THE MET RANGE.
Some helmet manufacturers choose to use traditional fabric foam pads with extra thickness in order to keep the helmet in position. However, the inconvenience is that this significantly increases head temperature. GEL 02 pads have the ability to naturally adapt to any head shape making it unnecessary to over tighten the occipital retention system.
THEY DON’T ABSORB SWEAT Traditional fabric foam pads absorb perspiration... that is until they become full and start dripping sweat into the eyes of the cyclist drop after drop after drop. GEL 02 pads do not absorb perspiration. They direct it towards the side of the face where it can run off whenever you push yourself harder.
Traditional fabric foam pads absorb perspiration... that is until they become full and start dripping sweat into the eyes of the cyclist drop after drop after drop. GEL 02 pads do not absorb perspiration. They direct it towards the side of the face where it can run off whenever you push yourself harder.
MUCH LONGER LIFESPAN Traditional foam pads rapidly deteriorate as a consequence of constantly absorbing transpiration. Especially when the helmet is used intensively. GEL 02 pads are much less susceptible to the acidity in sweat and preserve their inherent properties for up to 10 times longer.
INCOMPARABLE HYGIENE Traditional fabric foam pads absorb sweat. To keep them clean, you are recommended to hand wash and then dry them naturally each time you have used them. As they do not absorb sweat, you only need to wipe them with a sponge after each bike ride in order to clean GEL 02 pads properly. And they will be dry in the blink of an eye.
KIND TO THE SKIN Even if they are made of high quality fibre, traditional foam pads made from fabric remain limited by the characteristics of the material used. Originally used in the medical industry, the morpho-polyurethane from which our GEL 02 pads are made was especially developed for medical use. Hypo-allergenic and anti bacterial, it was first designed to be used as an interface between the skin and various medical appliances. 6
MET’S AIR SCALE
CF The cooling factor is calculated using Fluid Flow Analysis. Through this very high-tech computerized analysis system particle traces are used to visualize and measure the motion of mass-less particles that are placed in a flow field. In our case we measure the velocity and temperature of the air as it goes through the helmet in order to rate each helmet accordingly to its capacity of keeping the head cool. The higher the Cooling Factor, the cooler the head.
A REAL PERFORMANCE INDICTOR OF THE HELMET’S LEVEL OF VENTILATION.
When defining ventilation efficiency, a fundamental aspect which directly influences a cyclist’s performance, most helmet manufacturers simply indicate the number of air intakes for such and such model, implying that the helmet with the greatest number of air intakes is therefore the best ventilated. However, in reality, this indication alone does not provide any real information about the true capacity of the helmet to keep the head cool. MET, on the other hand, has developed its own protocol to measure the helmet’s performance in terms of ventilation called Air Scale, which measures two fundamental parameters. The Head Contact Surface (HCS) and the Cooling Factor (CF).

COOLING FACTOR
HEAD CONTACT SURFACE
HCS The Head Contact Surface indicates in percentage how much of the head is in contact with the helmet. It is easy to understand that where the head is in contact with the helmet there is no room for the air to circulate. The HCS provides a key information to rate a helmet ventilation. The lower the HCS, the better the ventilation.

JUST SOME OF THE MET INNOVATONS IN HELMET CONSTRUCTION HES
A CONSTANT WORK CARRIED OUT BY THE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT.
The overall objective of our Research and Development department is to improve our understanding of what humans need to increase their level of safety when cycling - in particular in the event of a fall but also in other circumstances – and to respond when needed with suitable technical solutions. The specific demands which are associated with particular types of cycling (urban, enduro, child, road etc.) need a really excellent understanding of a wide range of fields. During our research we have developed our own software for dynamic modelling which provides us with a huge capacity for analysing movement and constraints in three dimensions (3D). They enable us to define the geometry of a model in its entirety and to test its properties virtually. The different construction solutions that we have fine tuned have all come out of the constant work carried out by the Research and Development department.
8
In the event of an impact the pressure on the helmet shell is uneven; we can see that most of the pressure is concentrated within a limited area. HES construction, which involves embedding two homothetic shells, spreads most of the pressure built up by the compression at the impact point and thus dissipates the force of impact over the whole shell. HES construction also provides the possibility to reduce the density of polystyrene in some areas of the shell, which translates in a reduction in weight and thus an increase in performance.
WIDE BODY In order to be able to resolve problems, to suggest innovating solutions and to invent new possibilities for each new project, our designers have to take a multidisciplinary approach. Their culture is just as likely to be inspired by art, technique or social sciences as by natural science. The concept behind the Wide Body comes clearly from the automobile industry, where it is synonymous with increased performance. The result of years of virtual testing then testing in the wind tunnel and finally on the track then the road, the construction of the Wide Body offers a distribution of mass and volume far above the usual standard required for ‘against the clock’ racing helmets. Our Wide Body concept lowers the helmet’s centre of gravity and increases its volume on the sides in order to partially eradicate the ‘wall’ created by the rider’s clavicles, an area of turbulence which naturally offers wind resistance and creates drag. Never, before the Drone Wide Body, has an against-theclock racing helmet reached such a high level of efficiency.
MONOCOQUE Unlike its predecessor, the new Parachute is a real full-face helmet and its chin guard is not removable. The fact that it does not use the traditional construction technique for fullface helmets using fibreglass or other materials (carbon, etc.) soaked in resin, can, at first, be quite unsettling. But shouldn’t the role of all revolutionary technologies be to stun the observer? The MET monocoque construction based on an In-moulded helmet, in other words a fusion of polycarbonate shells and polystyrene and an integrated chin guard, enables us to set a new standard for weight reduction. But also to respond to the most demanding specifications concerning safety. The Parachute is certified according to American standards ASTM F1952-2032 which are used for full-face helmets for DH or BMX.
BIMBI-SECURE Exclusive technology developed by engineers in our R & D laboratory. Interior geometry which corresponds specifically to children’s safety requirements. The helmet has cavities above the fontanels so that it never comes into contact with the most fragile areas of the child’s head. In the event of an impact, the shock is dispersed away from the fontanels, the area of the skull which doesn’t fully close until after the first years of life
ICE LITE An exoskeleton of ICE Lite composite material unifies the three distinct elements which make up the helmet’s structure. This concept, which was inspired by animals with carapaces, when combined with In-mould construction, gives outstanding structural performance. The specific shape of the deflectors (the visible part of the skeleton) is designed to direct maximum air flow towards the interior of the shell helping make Sine-Thesis the best ventilated helmet ever designed according to the German magazine Road Bike after a comparative performance test.
INTELLIGENT FUSION Exclusive technology developed by engineers in our Research and Development laboratory. In-mould construction involves fusing together in the same matrix the two parts of the helmet shell (the interior which is generally black or grey polystyrene and the coloured polycarbonate exterior) during the moulding process. This construction technique provides better shock-absorption results than the Twin-Shell at equivalent volume and material density. Thanks to the In-mould Intelligent Fusion process, MET goes even further by using different densities of material depending on the characteristics of each model to improve the weight/volume ratio while optimising the shock absorption capacity.
KEY ROLE OF 3D PRINTING At MET the product development process is based on virtual modelling and impact testing simulation by finite element calculation. Helmet development is completed using fluid flow analysis for products with optimized performance in ventilation and aerodynamics. Having fixed the design and the geometry details, we carry out a simulation of certification testing procedure by finite element calculation. It allows our R&D dept. to understand how the product would react to impacts in advance of any pilot tooling production.
Technically speaking, our printer machine works with ABS material and the printing process is based on a moving head that produces the object in a 3D shape layer by layer. There are many benefits which convinced us to adopt this technology internally at our main R&D dept. Considering the considerable losses involved when a product development is not fully optimized, early checking of details can make a big difference to the final quality of a successful project. Once the real product shape is available, it is possible to arrange additional laboratory checks for certification and also fitting tests. It is a means of completing the technical steps of finite element calculation and fluid flow analysis. In some cases, like for instance our last project of the new full face helmet, it also allows us to apply wind tunnel testing to validate the data of the fluid flow analysis. The designer is completely free to test several different style options, because even a draft study of a style can be produced as a physical item with the 3D printing process. The last benefit of 3D printing is related to protecting confidentiality of information about a new project. Having the 3D printer in our R&D office means that all the data remain in our headquarters during the engineering process and until the project has been finalized.

SINE THESIS ICE LITE An Exoskeleton made of composite materials is at the heart of Sine Thesis’ architectural design. The streamlined fins are just the visible parts. They link the main ‘structural gaps’ in the polystyrene shell and guide the air towards the inside of the helmet. The air flow is also increased by the fact that only 20% of the head’s surface covered comes into any contact with the helmet. Add to all that the fact that the strap fixture points are embedded inside the shell, thus leaving the exterior of the shell completely smooth, and you can understand why the Sine-Thesis is not only the best ventilated helmet ever designed but also one of the most aerodynamic.

STRADIVARIUS HES Gerald Ciolek appreciates how easily you can forget you’re wearing a Stradivarius HES, even during interminable races such as the Milan San Remo 2013 which he won in hellish weather conditions. He certainly won’t be disappointed with the 2015 version. The new Safe-T Advanced occipital retention system is even lighter and more comfortable. When you spend a fair amount of your life on your bike, it is even more important to know you are well protected. In the event of an accident, the HES construction process, which involves fusing two homothetic shells allows the pressure which builds up at the point of impact to be spread across the helmet dissipating the shock more effectively.

PARABELLUM HES Last year, MET launched the latest generation Parabellum, a quintessence of technology and dynamic protection. The Parabellum’s shape offers excellent head coverage for such a feather-weight. It is the fusion of the two homothetic shells (HES construction) which enables a weight/volume/ shock-absorption capacity ratio which would have been unthinkable before. If one then adds the very latest version of the occipital retention system, Safe-T Advanced, a removable helmet cam mount, GEL 02 technology used for the front pad, the visor adjusted by an aluminium ratchet system or even the Air Lite straps, you find yourself with the new benchmark for all-mountain helmets.
DESCRIPTION CONSTRUCTION IN-MOULDING INTELLIGENT FUSION / Different densities of material, depending on the characteristics of each model. FULL WRAP / The polycarbonate shell wraps the bottom of the helmet towards the inside of the shell. HOMOTHETIC EMBEDDED SKELETON / Spreads the pressure built up at the impact point, and thus dissipates the force of impact over the whole shell. SIZE ADJUSTER SAFE-T ADVANCED / Lighter with broader contact area, the pressure is distributed in a homogenous way. STRAPS AIR LITE STRAPS / A revolutionary technique of weaving polyester fibres aids sweat evaporation and provides greater tensile strength with less weight REMOVABLE VISOR MULTI POSITION / Allows super fine tuning of the visor position. Aluminium screws. A style statement too! INTEGRATED AIR INTAKE / Actively helps cool the head by directing the air towards the inside of the helmet.

KAOS UL The Kaos is a dependable favourite in MET’s all-mountain range. The new graphics highlight even better the wide air intake vents which are such a characteristic feature of Kaos’ design. As for the technological input, you can’t fail to notice the Kevlar straps and the very latest version of the Safe-T Advanced occipital retention system. If the Kaos is so lightweight, it’s thanks to the use of Ultimalite fibre. A material developed exclusively by our R&D department which enables us to strengthen the structure while reducing the weight. The GEL 02 front pad guarantees comfort, is hygienic and offers greater cooling.
CONSTRUCTION IN-MOULDING INTELLIGENT FUSION / Different densities of material, depending on the characteristics of each model. FULL WRAP / The polycarbonate shell wraps the bottom of the helmet towards the inside of the shell. ULTIMALITE / Composite material used to insert fine reinforcements layers at strategic points of the shell. SIZE ADJUSTER SAFE-T ADVANCED / Lighter with broader contact area, the pressure is distributed in a homogenous way. STRAPS KEVLAR STRAPS / Ventilated, with breathability. Ultra-resistant. LATERAL DIVIDERS STRONG FIT / Positioning them correctly, then blocking them in the chosen position is child’s play. REMOVABLE VISOR FOUR POINTS ATTACHMENT / Protects the face and especially the eyes from branches, sun, rain or mud flicked up.

TERRA When they set out to create the Terra our designers kept in mind numerous parameters intrinsically linked to the practical aspects of all-mountain riding. The emotional reaction sparked by the design which resembles the legendary MET Anaxagore with its spiked air vents is a given. With active ventilation, a branch deflecting visor, a light weight and secure fit even on the roughest tracks, the Terra is living proof of the perfect synergy between form and function which makes up MET’s stylistic DNA. Performs highly on any terrain. Its universal size means it can be adapted to fit anyone, from 54 to 61 cm head size.
CONSTRUCTION IN-MOULDING INTELLIGENT FUSION / Different densities of material, depending on the characteristics of each model. SIZE ADJUSTER SAFE-T TWIST / There is a dial at the back of the helmet for easy one-hand size adjustment.

DESCRIPTION
VELENO X-country riders have always been obsessed by the weight of their bike and the size of their tyres. Research shows, however, that they should be paying more attention to their helmet. A high head temperature means an increase in the amount of sweat the body is producing. That leads to a higher loss of liquids and to dehydration, which in turn has a negative impact on the rider’s level of performance. Not with the Veleno, the most X-Country style helmet in our MTB range. The visor which directs the air towards the large intake vents, the GEL 02 front pad and the ventilated Kevlar straps all contribute to its anti ‘overheating’ system.
CONSTRUCTION IN-MOULDING INTELLIGENT FUSION / Different densities of material, depending on the characteristics of each model. FULL WRAP / The polycarbonate shell wraps the bottom of the helmet towards the inside of the shell. SIZE ADJUSTER SAFE-T SMART ADVANCED / Lighter with broader contact area, the pressure is distributed in a homogenous way. STRAPS KEVLAR STRAPS / Ventilated, with breathability. Ultra-resistan.

CROSSOVER The design of the Crossover combines the high-performance and style of a sports helmet with the modular functionality of an urban helmet. With or without its visor, thanks to the invisible Clip-on-Anchor attachment system, it can change style depending on what you need and when you need it - without losing its good looks. As its name suggests, the Crossover really feels at home on any terrain. And on any head, as it is also available in XL (up to 64 cm head size). With the built-in led light and a Safe-T e-Twist occipital retention system you’ll have no excuse for not riding after dark.

DESCRIPTION
ELFO & GENIO MET’s kids helmets have always evolved from a simple but great idea to not just reproduce adult models in a smaller size but to pay special attention to the specific demands of our youngest customers. And even the Elfo is not a small version of Genio, it has its own shape with greater head coverage and is better suited to babies. Other examples of specific adaptations: the back of the helmet is almost vertical to enable the child to sit up straight in the bike seat and then there is the Bimbi-Secure internal geometry concept. It ensures there is no contact between the helmet and the fontanel, the most fragile zone of the child’s head, even on impact.
CONSTRUCTION IN-MOULDING INTELLIGENT FUSION / Different densities of material, depending on the characteristics of each model. BIMBI SECURE / In the event of an impact, the shock is dispersed away from the fontanels, the area of the skull which doesn’t fully close until after the first years of life. BIMBI PLUS / The back of the helmet is designed vertical and flat so the children can lean back and hold their head up comfortably in the baby seat. INTEGRATED VISOR / Extra protection for the eyes and the face of the child. SIZE ADJUSTER SAFE-T e-TWIST / LED light, which is easy to press on, is integrated into the central dial adjuster. STRAPS ANTI-PINCH BUCKLE / Designed to avoid any pinching, even when used clumsily. COMFORT ANTI-INSECTS NET / Prevents insects from entering the helmet through the front air intakes.
