Abus Taipan Led Helmet Black

YOUR HELMET. YOUR RIDE. YOUR ADVENTURE.

Gravel is more than just cycling: it's a feeling of absolute freedom. No rules, no limits, no obligations. Just you, your Taipan, and endless possibilities.

Freedom begins where the asphalt ends.

Pure Escape: Step out of everyday life, step into adventure. Whether it's a sunrise ride or an after-work session, the feeling you get at the start is priceless. The Taipan offers you maximum flexibility: thanks to the glasses holder, the magnetic and rechargeable rear light, and the washable pads.

Challenge accepted: Steep climbs, interval training on gravel, the next podium: are you looking for a sporting challenge? With its reduced weight, aerodynamic straps, 18 ventilation openings, and an intelligent air cooling system inside the helmet, the Taipan is your partner for maximum performance that requires a lot of effort.

Soul Ride: Rediscover your favorite childhood trails or explore the countryside with friends for hours: the Taipan brings the feeling of childhood freedom back into everyday life. A precise fit is essential to enjoy this feeling: thanks to the subtly widened internal shape of the helmet, with space for thicker padding and the individual adjustment system with ponytail opening, the helmet fits like a second skin.

Whether it's endless dirt roads, hidden forest trails, or forgotten country lanes, the Taipan will take you to places you've never seen before. With its organic lines and minimalist aesthetics, it is the perfect match for your next outdoor Gravel adventure.

Lower edge protection: The outer polycarbonate (PC) shell covers the lower edge of the helmet and protects against scratches, bumps, and wear marks.

Ponytail opening: thanks to the recess in the height-adjustable adjustment system, the helmet is also suitable for long hairstyles like ponytails, buns, or braids.

Front glasses holder: defined recess on the front of the helmet to place glasses in a secure and aerodynamic position while riding.

Acti Cage™: allows for larger ventilation openings with simultaneously high stability thanks to the structural foam reinforcement.

Reflective sticker: for better visibility in the dark.

Cooling air flow system: the ventilation openings are connected through channels inside to channel incoming air through the helmet, ensuring maximum air circulation and a pleasant climate for the head.

Magnetic and rechargeable rear light: attaches to the back of the helmet via magnets and ensures greater visibility

Charging time duration (light): the charging time until the battery is fully charged is about 1.5 hours.

Zoom™ Spin adjustment system: Wheel at the nape for individual helmet adjustment according to head circumference.

Flow Straps™: aerodynamic straps for low flow resistance, less noise, and high wearing comfort.

Floating padding: the internal padding of the helmet, which hooks into various attachment points, makes it more mobile and offers better ventilation and greater wearing comfort.

Buckle closure: for safe and practical use, the straps are equipped with a classic buckle closure (trident connection) for opening and closing.

In-Mold process: Production process in which the internal cushioning material in expanded polystyrene (EPS) is foamed directly into the outer polycarbonate (PC) shell, creating a durable and robust connection.
