Confidence to commit

From the Enduro World Series to Red Bull Rampage, top riders demand the Giro Insurgent™ Spherical and the confidence it delivers. Our engineers maximized the intake points for cool, fresh air, resulting in cooling power 50% more efficient than the Disciple™ Mips®. A lightweight, soft-touch, and absorbent pad set includes two different cheek pads with each of the three sizes, allowing for a customizable fit, which are secured via a directional snap system allowing for easy removal in case of a crash. At 1,040 grams in size M/L, the Insurgent is 200 grams lighter than the Disciple Mips despite additional features including the advanced protection performance of Spherical Technology™. Insurgent Spherical utilizes a pair of different density EPP and EPS foam layers that work like a ball and socket to redirect impact energy in a crash. Additional features include a patent-pending Flex Gasket along the lower edge of the helmet, designed to reduce the role a helmet can play in certain collarbone impacts, tool-free breakaway visor bolts with integrated Allen key receiver for easy removal, and a central visor bolt hole, which does double-duty as the ideal mount for P.O.V. action cameras.

WHAT IS SPHERICAL TECHNOLOGY?

The unique ball-and-socket design of Spherical Technology utilizes two separate liners to help manage impact forces. The material and density of the inner and outer liners can be optimized with Progressive Layering to help manage a broad range of impact forces: the Insurgent features an outer EPS layer (to address high-speed impacts) and an inner EPP layer (with rebound characteristics designed to handle slower speed falls.) When you combine the benefits of Progressive Layering with the market-leading Mips® Brain Protection System, which can help redirect rotational energy away from the brain, you get more comprehensive protection.

HOW DOES SPHERICAL TECHNOLOGY WORK?

Developed at the Bell+Giro Dome laboratory in partnership with Mips®, Spherical Technology’s unique Ball-and-Socket Design redirects impact forces, bringing market-leading design, performance and brain protection together without compromising comfort, ventilation, weight or style.

COOLING POWER

STAY COOL
UNDER PRESSURE

We tested with our proprietary Therminator head form to measure helmet cooling efficiency and the results prove that Insurgent sets a new standard for full-face helmets. Despite added features and protection, it has 50% greater colling efficiency than Disciple Mips (cooling measured from 100º starting temperature at with 25 mph wind speed).

Helmet Comparison by Cooling Efficiency: Giro Insurgent, 75.3%. Competitor B, 64.6%. Competitor T, 59.5%. Giro Disciple, 50.3%. Competitor F, 48.5%. Photo of Helmet Airflow Test Rig

PRO RIDERS CHOOSE INSURGENT

“Enduro is a sport of many disciplines with speed and long transfers, so a helmet needs to have many identities. Riding in the Insurgent gives me the cooling I want to climb and be comfortable in, and once I point myself downhill the confidence/safety of the full-face DH lid is there to push.” RICHIE RUDE – YETI/FOX FACTORY TEAM

“I’ve been running the insurgent for the last few months and I’m loving it! It’s lightweight and breathable but also has the support to make my head feel as protected as can be which is the ultimate recipe for me to feel confident on the bike! I’ve worn it from boiling desert temperatures to snowy UK winter conditions and everything in between, I can confirm it goes hard!” VERO SANDLER
