2023 KASK ELEMENTO

BE AHEAD OF THE GAME

In the quest for ultimate performance, you should expect more from a helmet than “just” superior aerodynamics and lean weight. The Elemento features a revolutionary, new design with advanced technologies to deliver the very best safety and thermal comfort no matter what you ride: road, cross-country, cyclocross, or gravel (or all four). Designed in collaboration with the INEOS Grenadiers Cycling Team, the Elemento is aimed at professional and semi-professional athletes. Expect new standards in terms of aerodynamics, ventilation, and performance; expect nothing short of a revolutionary helmet for training and racing.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

The Elemento has been engineered to be both super-aerodynamic as well as to allow high levels of ventilation, thanks to its innovative design and the introduction of various pioneering technologies, such as Fluid Carbon 12 and Multipod. Fluid Carbon 12’s composite technopolymer absorbs more energy from an impact than traditional materials and distributes the force generated more evenly across the entire helmet. This benefit has enabled KASK's technicians to increase the size of the internal channels, which improves ventilation, while simultaneously reducing the size of the ventilation holes for improved aerodynamics. Multipod is KASK’s proprietary 3D-printed internal padding. This elastomer material enables the helmet to better withstand the energy generated by linear and rotational impacts. Multipod functions isotropically, meaning it withstands the energy from impacts the same regardless of the direction in which the force is applied. The Elemento’s OCTOFIT+ helmet retention system allows for a more fine-tuned fit to provide greater safety and stability. A reflective graphic at the back increases rider visibility.

TECHNOLOGIES

MULTIPOD

An isotropic material that allows better management of rotational impact energy and increases ventilation. It behaves in the same way when a force is applied to it from any direction and it can reduce the shear stress between the head and the inside of the helmet.

HIGH VISIBILITY

High visibility stickers for maximum safety even in poor visibility conditions

HIGH BREATHABILITY

Because the inner padding fiber speeds up the evaporation process of perspiration, slow down the formation of humidity on the skin and keeps the temperature constant.

FLUID CARBON 12

A new composite material that allows to reduces the thickness of EPS from the inner shell, in order to improve ventilation and aerodynamics. It also generates a better energy distribution in case of an impact and guarantees a low friction surface between the helmet and the impact surface.

MIT

The MIT Technology, guarantees a higher head safety, with a complete polystyrene protection thanks to the polycarbonate layer that covers the shell on the top, on the base ring and on the back.

OCTOFIT+ RETENTION SYSTEM

The new overinjected rubber dial provides improved finger grip. The vertical stabiliser has been redesigned for greater stability providing a customised fit for riders with longer hair. The ergonomic neck support ensures a fast and secure fit against the back of the head.

AERO CONTROL

Incredibly aerodynamic and top performing shell, tested in the wind-tunnel and able to provide a really impressive CX rate. Any position the head will assume the outflow of the air will be perfectly in line with the helmet.

MERINO WOOL

Thanks to the properties of Merino wool, the exclusive KASK technology for helmets, the internal padding provides unmatched comfort. The Merino wool natural fibre in contact with the skin keeps the body temperature, ensures high breathability and dries quickly.

HYVENT

Structure and design of the shell implement the air flow and break up the exchangeable heat.
