Abus AIRBREAKER 2.0 Helmet : Performance Red

Season:2027

Brand:ABUS

Code:A-AB2-PFR

The AirBreaker 2.0 is the lightest road helmet ABUS build, at 215 grams in a medium. A helmet gets to that weight either by giving something up or by being smart about its structure, and this is the second kind.

Two features do the work. At the upper rear sits the Aero Blade, a separate element that reinforces the shell and shapes the air leaving it, reducing drag and increasing airflow at the same time. It is moulded from material injected with carbon fibre, which is what allows it to be stiff without being heavy. Underneath, the Acti Cage is foamed into the EPS as a structural skeleton, and its job is to hold everything rigid around ventilation openings large enough that the shell would otherwise flex. Neither part is visible when you are wearing the helmet but both are the reason it can be this light and still feel solid in your hands.

Ventilation is where you will notice the difference on the road. The openings are large and placed where the heat is felt, and Forced Air Cooling connects them with internal channelsso that incoming air is pushed through the helmet and over your scalp instead of passing across the outside of the shell. It works when you are flat out and it works when you are grinding up something long at walking pace, which is the more testing case. It also keeps working with sunglasses on, which is not true of every helmet with big vents in it.

The fit hardware is the part you will interact with every ride. Zoom Spin puts a rotary dial at the back of your head, and the cradle is height-adjustable, so you can set how the helmet sits rather than only how tightly it grips. The Floating Pad clicks into several points inside the shell rather than lying flat against it, which leaves room for air to move behind the padding. Flow-Straps Pro are stitched rather than threaded through dividers, so they lie flat, stay put and stop the flutter you get from a loose strap at speed. The upper section of each strap is slightly thinner, which you feel as less strap against your cheek. A conventional three-pronged buckle closes it, the pads come out for washing, and a cut-out in the cradle takes a ponytail / plait or a bun.

The Front Eyewear Port deserves a mention of its own. It is a shaped recess at the front of the shell with a dedicated rubber grip in it, so pushing your glasses up mid-climb parks them securely and keeps the arms out of the airflow. Anyone who has had a pair bounce loose on a descent will appreciate the rubber.

Underneath it all is an in-mould shell, with the EPS liner formed directly into a polycarbonate outer so the two are bonded rather than glued. The polycarbonate wraps the lower edge, which is where a helmet actually gets damaged, in a boot or a kit bag rather than in a crash.

The ideal all-rounder, the Airbreaker 2.0 is ideal for anyone who climbs more than they sprint, or who runs hot.
If you want the same helmet with a rotational-impact layer, the AirBreaker 2.0 MIPS fits the bill.
