Abus GAMECHANGER 2.0 Aero Road Helmet with MIPS : Performance Red

Season:2027

Brand:ABUS

Code:A-GC2MIPS-PFR

The Gamechanger 2.0 MIPs is the aero helmet designed to mitigate rotational force in the event of a fall or crash. Inside the padding sits a low-friction shell which counteracts rotational forces and is built on the principle that heads almost never meet the ground square. A helmet that can shift a little against your scalp in the first fraction of a second of an angled impact takes some of that twisting energy out of the system before it reaches you.

The padding here is worth a closer look, because it differs from the standard GameChanger 2.0. Where that helmet uses the Floating Pad, clipped in at several points, the MIPS variant carries comfort pads attached with Velcro, with the MIPS layer bonded to the inside of them. Same washing routine, different construction.

The chin buckle is the other change you will notice immediately. The standard helmet closes with a traditional three-pronged push-in fastener. The MIPS helmet uses a Fidlock magnetic buckle, which can be opened with one hand even when you are wearing gloves.

Everything that makes the GameChanger 2.0 an aero helmet carries over. The rear of the shell is wider than you might expect, which is what cuts air resistance, and the AeroBlade sits on top of it with a grid structure that optimises airflow across different speeds, side angles and helmet inclinations. The wider Kamm tail has an eleven percent longer virtual aero profile, with the tail tilted a further eight degrees to suit a head in the race position.

Ventilation runs on the AirBoost inlet at the front and Forced Air Cooling behind it, where the openings are connected by channels on the inside, so incoming air is guided over your scalp instead of across the outside of the shell. ABUS quotes up to thirty-two per cent more air over the forehead and twenty per cent more flow out of the rear outlets, both their own numbers. The ActiCage, foamed into the EPS, is what keeps the shell stable with openings that large cut into it and is a feature that travels across models in the range.

The rest is the same hardware you get across ABUS's road range. Zoom Spin puts a rotary dial at the back of your head on a cradle that adjusts for height as well as circumference. Flow Straps Pro are stitched rather than threaded through dividers, so they lie flat and stay quiet, with a thinner upper section where the strap crosses your face. There is a cut-out in the cradle for a ponytail, eyewear ports at the front and the rear, and polycarbonate wrapping the lower edge where a helmet gets knocked about in a kit bag. The shell is in-moulded, with the EPS foamed directly into the polycarbonate rather than glued, and it is made in Italy.

ABUS offer this MIPS version in four finishes against twenty-one for the standard helmet, and in S, M and L without the M/L the standard helmet adds.
