Road Cycling Helmet RCR MIPS - Blue
This helmet was designed so that the ventilation works perfectly when you need it, on long climbs. As soon as you tip upwards, the aerodynamics of this helmet will make all the difference.

ventilation8 air entrances connected to 7 exits via canals
lightweightIn-Mold technology results in a lightweight helmet (280 g in size M)
anatomic designTurn-ring system for a micrometric adjustment. Occipital adjustment
aerodynamicsDeveloped and tested in a wind tunnel to minimise its drag coefficient- RCRThe RCR range for RACER is the range intended for cyclists looking for the best equipment. This range is suited to cyclists looking for excellence on all terrain. Very high-level, versatile products for riding on both flats and in the high mountains. The RCR range has been chosen by the Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale professional team
- SECURITYBecause choosing a helmet is above all for safety reasons, this helmet meets all the most demanding impact standards. It complies with the European regulation EN1078. This standard covers the following aspects: construction, including field of vision, shock absorption properties, retention system features including the chinstrap and tightening devices, and marking and information.
- Sizes & WeightThe size of a helmet is based on your head circumference. RCR: Size S: 52-55 cm - 240 g Size M: 55-59 cm - 280 g Size L: 59-62 cm - 300 g Note that this helmet has MIPS technology. This system slightly modifies the size grid, so if you are at the upper end of the size range, we recommend choosing one size up.
- VentilationA helmet's ventilation is optimal when large entrances for air are connected to exits via canals that let the air circulate. The head is an essential component for cooling the body during intensive effort. The evacuation of the heat generated is thus a priority for maintaining a high level of performance.
- VENTILATION AND AERODYNAMICSPoorly placed ventilation can, on the other hand, generate a great loss of aerodynamic performance by significantly increasing drag. The RCR has a variable ventilation system depending on your position on the bike. The straighter up you are, for instance when climbing a slope, the more effective the system. As soon as you tip down for a descent, the aerodynamics of this helmet will make all the difference.
- RETURN CONDITIONS (SPECIFIC TO PPE)This helmet is personal protective equipment (PPE), so its protection will depend on the condition of your helmet. We can only accept helmets returned in new condition. If your helmet doesn't suit you, please return it with the user guide and tags.
- HELMET LIFE SPANHelmets don't last forever. To ensure maximum safety, we recommend replacing your helmet at least every 5 to 7 years. It is important to store it in its case, in a dry, cool place away from sunlight. Extreme temperatures will deteriorate the helmet's foam more quickly. After a significant impact, it is essential to replace your helmet, since it may no longer be effective if there are cracks inside the structure.
