A recent trip to the MIPS facility in Sweden<br />
only emphasised the need for any 2019-<br />
2020 crash helmet to have the means of<br />
addressing rotational acceleration. If your<br />
current lid has no method of helping to<br />
fight the potential lethal effects of this<br />
impact (basically any crash where your<br />
head will not receive a direct, flat impact)<br />
then consign it to recycling. Troy Lee<br />
Designs have been an avid supporter and<br />
flagbearer for MIPS and with this safety<br />
element integrated into their products have<br />
been able to concentrate on refining an<br />
extremely practical, appealing (naturally for<br />
TLD) and effective crash helmet. The SE4<br />
comes in three different shell constructions<br />
- carbon, composite and polyacrylite – each<br />
with three different sizes.<br />
The carbon weighs only 1325g and has a<br />
massive 20 intake ports with 6 exhausts to<br />
ensure a premium cooling sensation. Expanded<br />
Propylene is the base material of<br />
the chin bar to ensure tough durability, the<br />
3D contoured cheek pads feature an emergency<br />
release system and snap-in<br />
washable comfort liner with CoolMax and<br />
Dri-lex fabric. Plastic screws ensure that the<br />
peak will break away easily. The SE4 carbon<br />
also comes with the spare peak and helmet<br />
bag. The polyacrylite is a good option for a<br />
smaller budget with a few less intake ports,<br />
different fabric interiors and is slightly<br />
heavier at a still-reasonable 1500 grams.<br />
Crucially, it still has the MIPS technology.
