Ekoï Racing GARA MIPS ELEGANCE Helmet
The new Ekoï Gara ultralight helmet was designed with 5 goals in mind: protection, comfort, weight, ventilation, design.
The protection remains the first priority of a helmet and the Ekoï Gara model must protect effectively in case of impact. We've strengthened the helmet for side impacts (the most dangerous), optimized the design with a shape that's tailored for better rock protection, and added the MIPS AIR® system.
The Ekoï Gara is the first helmet to be designed to protect against side impacts
The comfort is also paramount as our pro teams wear the helmet virtually every day whether racing or training, the model's 3 sizes allow for a helmet fit as close to the skull as possible.
The lightness is essential whether it's for the 293 Ekoï pro athletes wearing it in 2022 or for our customers. A good helmet should be forgettable.
The 20 ventilations in this helmet allow airflow even in the hottest temperatures.
It was designed in Italy in consultation with some of our pro team riders and our Ekoi designers.
It has been adopted by the pro teams ISRAEL PREMIER TECH / LOTTO DSTNY / COFIDIS / ARKEA B&B HOTELS, so we are sure to offer you one of the best helmets in the world.
Equipped with the MIPS AIR® system
MIPS AIR® is designed to reduce the rotational movement of the head during certain angular impacts.
MIPS AIR® was specifically developed and designed to be the lightest possible system to reduce the rotational energies transferred to the head during specific angular impacts.
MIPS AIR® replaces traditional Gara foams and allows 10-15 mm of relative movement between the helmet and the rider's head.
Ventilation optimal
The vents on the front of the helmet optimize the inflow of fresh air while the vents on the back allow heat and moisture to escape.
micrometric adjustment
The occipital support is also adjustable from the bottom to the top of the occiput to optimize the helmet's fit.

great fit, enhanced chin strap, air flow probably better although hard to judge in early spring.
good buying experience and very quick shipping to the USA. -

Helmet was very easy to adjust and fit very well. I love that it can be accessorized with different color insets and being able to add my name. Looking forward to many years of riding with this helmet.

Helmet fits well and looks good. Magnetic closure is a real plus! Slightly heavier than the helmet I'm replacing but ony by an ounce.

Paul W. 31/01/2025 Age: 55-64 Level: Advanced Convenient: Gravel, RoadGreat alternative to the more common options out there
In my opinion, there are two trends in helmets lately, the first is that they've become increasingly expensive, silly expensive actually; and the second is that they've become very boring and similar. The Gara isn't either of those. First off the Gara is very reasonably priced for a well-ventilated premium helmet that also features Mips technology; secondly, the design is a refreshing departure, especially with the chameleon accents and the option to have your name on it as well. The helmet itself is very well made, the finish on it is perfect, and I think its a huge benefit that the shell wraps around the underside of the helmet; too many helmets, regardless of price, are leaving the rim of the helmet exposed which makes them susceptible to damage, the Gara doesn't so not only will it be more protected but it also presents itself as a more premium helmet. The padding is appropriately comfortable and I love the magnetic sliding buckle on the straps, I think this is much better option compared to the normal click-in buckle. While I can't vouch for crash protection - and lets face it, I hope I never have to - I can talk about fit. I have a 60cm head that is very much a long oval in shape. For those unfamiliar, helmets are usually designed to fit an oval head shape though some are more round and others more long oval. I'd say that the Gara falls somewhere between oval and long oval; there is no pressure on my forehead and its not sloppy or overly roomy on the sides. I find that it fits very well. The bottom line is that its an attractive and well-priced helmet option that's definitely worth considering. I like it so much I am considering ordering another!

Recently purchased the EKOI GARA road helmet (medium). First ride wearing the GARA a little over three hours on the bike, helmet so comfortable I almost forgot I had it on. Fit is perfect! Thank you Carrie in customer service for you help and guidance with choosing the GARA. I would recommend to anyone serious about fit and comfort.

This helmet is replacing a previous Gara MIPS helmet. It is a custom fit for my head and looks stunning in the customized Chamaeleon color! I am extremely pleased with the helmet and most especially with the customer service I have received in getting this replacement. An excellent company, an excellent helmet, and excellent service all around! Thank you!
