Abus STORMCHASER ACE Road and Gravel Helmet : Pure Mint

Season:2027

Brand:ABUS

Code:A-SCACE-PUM

The StormChaser ACE is a lightweight road helmet for all fast rides, and from road races and cyclocross. At 220 grams in a medium it is light enough for that to be true, and only five grams heavier than the lightest helmet they make for the road - the Airbreaker 2.0

Ventilation gets a precise claim rather than a vague one. ABUS say the air inlets and outlets are precisely shaped to ventilate the head, which is more useful than counting vents. Where the openings are placed, and how the air gets out again once it has passed over your scalp, is what decides whether a helmet works on an hour of cyclocross efforts, climbing in the heat or when not moving fast enough to get much help from the wind.

Cutting openings that large into a polystyrene liner is where most of the engineering goes, because EPS loses its shape as soon as you take material out of it. The ActiCage is a structural reinforcement foamed into the liner, and it takes that load instead, which is how the openings get to be as big as they are while the shell stays stable. It is the same structure ABUS put in their race helmets.

The lower edge is worth more attention than it usually gets. On the ACE the polycarbonate outer shell covers the lower edge of the helmet the whole way around, protecting it against scratches, impacts and general wear, and shielding the shock-absorbing inner material behind it. The rim is where a helmet gets damaged in real life, in a car boot or a kit bag or dropped on a start line, and bare EPS at the rim crumbles. Wrapping it is the difference between a helmet that still looks right in its third season and one that doesn't.

Fit comes from the Zoom Pro adjustment system, which is precisely adaptable and height-adjustable, so you can set where the helmet sits as well as how firmly it holds. The Floating Pad clicks into place at several points inside the shell rather than lying flat, which makes it more flexible and leaves room for air to move behind the padding. The straps are sewn rather than threaded through dividers, so they fit snugly and do not flap while you ride, and a three-pronged chin lock closes them. ABUS have also revised the anchor points where the webbing meets the shell, specifically to stop the slight rattle you otherwise get at speed. It is the sort of detail nobody mentions but everybody notices on a fast descent. The pads come out to be washed or replaced and there is an opening in the cradle for long hair.

At the front of the shell is a defined recess for your glasses, shaped to hold them in a secure and aerodynamic position when you push them up.

ABUS have deliberately given the Stormchaser ACE a streamlined, angular shape, and they are open about the intent: the new visual quality is there to underline the premium standards of the helmet. It reads as a race helmet rather than a sensible one - because aesthetics matter. The shell is in-moulded, with the EPS foamed directly into the polycarbonate so the two behave as one when they are hit, and it is made in Italy.

Ideal for anyone riding road through summer and gravel or cross through winter and who would rather own one helmet than two. It is light enough for the first and tough enough at the edges for the second.
