For urban cyclists, Escapa offers the Abus HUD-Y Ace Pure Edition Helmet, which features a rechargeable LED light on the back of the helmet, as well as a visor that can be easily raised and lowered.
The helmet also features the Multi Shell In-Mold protection system with impact-absorbing EPS.
The popular rechargeable rear LED on the HUD-Y models protects cyclists in often chaotic urban traffic: with four lighting modes, the magnetic, USB-rechargeable light strip serves as a helpful light source on the road. In the Ace version, the visor replaces the HUD-Y’s flip-up shield. Depending on riding conditions, cyclists can slide the integrated visor up and down. The helmet becomes a fashion accessory thanks to several attractive color designs—for those who want to look stylish and stay protected while cycling.
TECHNOLOGIES
- Multi Shell In Mold: During the manufacturing process, the helmet’s impact-absorbing material (EPS) is foamed into multiple polycarbonate outer shells to achieve a durable and robust bond
- Zoom Ace Urban: A precise, height-adjustable fit system with a manual adjustment dial for a personalized fit
- Ideal helmet for use with hair tied back: the height-adjustment system at the back of the head creates space for ponytails
- Visor to protect the face from rain, wind, and insects
- High-powered, wide-angle LED light with magnetic attachment
- Depending on the mode, the light has a maximum brightness of nine lumens. Four modes: Eco, Power, Blink, and Pulse
- Fast-charging LED light via micro USB. The LED color indicates when the charging process is complete
- ActiCage: a structural reinforcement integrated into the helmet’s rigid EPS foam. The cage-like structure creates space for large ventilation openings and helps stabilize the helmet.
- TriVider: a flat strap divider that is not height-adjustable; however, it allows the straps to move sideways (to the right or left) to accommodate the position of the ear
