The mountain bike helmet Awake 1.0 was developed to significantly improve safety. These endeavours resulted in a helmet that provides twice as much shock absorption as required by EN standards and grants reliable rotational impact protection. This is achieved through HexaGo technology, a hexagonal honeycomb structure between the head and the outer shell that deforms elastically on impact. The efficient ventilation of the inner core, which is made of special H.E.A.P. (High Energy Absorption Polymer), complements its qualities.
Statement by the Jury
The extraordinarily innovative feature of this bicycle helmet is an improved impact protection, provided through a material that offers additional safety through elasticity.
