Vurdering og anbefalinger for Giro Tyrant Spherical Hjelm

Fordeler

• MIPS Spherical (dual‑density EPP/EPS) for improved rotational and multi‑impact energy management compared with standard MIPS slip liners
• Extended “full‑cut” coverage over ears/temples and occipital area vs. conventional trail half‑shells
• Robust hardshell with in‑mold lower wrap shows good abrasion resistance for frequent crashes (dirt jump/park use)
• Roc Loc Air DH retention offers stable fit with goggles; reported to reduce strap interference
• Goggle- and sunglass-friendly visor/interface; visor is adjustable and sturdy
• Ventilation acceptable for a full‑cut design (14 vents with internal channels)
• Comfort and fit consistency rated positively by many riders with medium/neutral head shapes
• Certified to CPSC Bicycle and CE EN1078

Ulemper

• Heavier than typical trail helmets (~600 g in M), noticeable on long climbs and all‑day rides
• Runs warmer than standard half‑shells; ear coverage reduces airflow and ambient hearing
• Not ASTM F1952 downhill certified; less suitable for DH racing vs. certified options
• Niche fit: ear coverage and shell shape may not suit all head/ear geometries; some users report pressure around ears with long sessions
• Model availability/parts can be limited in some markets since it has seen reduced distribution compared with launch period

Oppsummering & anbefalinger

Giro Tyrant Spherical is a robust, full‑cut trail/park helmet offering extended coverage and MIPS Spherical protection. Independent tests and user reports highlight strong stability with goggles, durable construction, and reliable comfort, while also noting the trade‑offs of higher weight, warmer feel, and reduced ambient hearing. It suits riders who want more coverage than a standard half‑shell without moving to a full‑face, but it is not a replacement for an ASTM DH‑certified helmet for downhill racing.

Bruksområder & tips

Best for aggressive trail, dirt jump, street/park, and enduro-style riding where frequent low-to-medium speed impacts and extended coverage are prioritized. Less ideal for hot climates, long pedal days, XC weight weenies, or riders requiring ASTM DH certification.
