Product news: Product news: New Contec road bike helmets Tempest.25 & Barat.25

April 26, 2018 by Florian Nowak

Product news: Bicycle parts and accessories specialist Contec is presenting a complete range of bicycle helmets for the first time. The previously limited selection is replaced by a completely new product family and includes seven models - from children's helmets to city and all-round helmets to sporty models for mountain bike and racing bike use. With the Tempest.25 and the Barat.25 we introduce you to the road bike models.

The helmets are equipped with state-of-the-art crash technologies and practical features such as the Fidlock® magnetic clasp or LED rear lights on children's helmets. Contec takes up the color design of its Neo color family, a product line that already includes various accessories, such as the Contec Dim Sun sunglasses that go with the new helmets.

 



Contec road bike helmets - Tempest.25

Withstand any storm on the road bike with the Contec Tempest.25. The design of the top-of-the-range racing bike helmet from Contec is geared towards the needs of demanding racers who have to survive the stormy duel at the top of the race. The Tempest.25 has 25 vents that provide ample ventilation even at low speeds. Because only with a cool head, the body can call up the maximum of its performance. Its advanced helmet shell is made using the in-moulding process and helps the helmet to weigh just 230 grams and is more robust and durable.



The Tempest.25 road bike helmet can be adjusted particularly quickly and precisely, three times in height with the Fit3Ride adjustment system and 30 millimeters in width with our one-handed Twist2Loc screw cap. The FidLock magnet chin clasp also offers a secure and fumble-free closure. So the Tempest.25 is practically ready for immediate use. As a further comfort feature, the Contec road bike helmet offers comfortable inner padding, which quickly and efficiently wicks sweat away from the skin and dries quickly. The inner pads are removable and easily washable by hand.

Contec road bike helmets – Barat.25

A lightweight and stylish road bike helmet that won't let you down in any situation. Its furiously sporty design is based on the tremendous power of the Barat wind. Its 25 ventilation openings help to actively cool the head. The Barat.25 allows you to push your performance limits even in hot weather. The low weight of the Barat.25 of just 220 grams means you hardly feel the helmet on your head, so you can fully concentrate on the road. The Barat.25 is manufactured using the in-moulding process for high robustness. The helmet shell made of EPS and polycarbonate impresses with its high quality and long service life.



For a particularly high level of comfort, the Contec racing bike helmet Barat.25 offers the Dynamic Fit flexible height adjustment and the Fit2Loc 40 millimeter width adjustment - the helmet can be precisely adjusted to the individual head shape with one hand. The inner padding of the Barat.25 is colour-coordinated with the design of the helmet. They absorb sweat particularly effectively and are quick-drying. This keeps your forehead dry and prevents salty sweat from running into your eyes. The inner padding can be removed and easily washed by hand.
