Alpina Rootage Helmet

The Rootage Helmet by Alpina - Secure and comfortable

The Alpina Rootage helmet is one of Alpina's safest bike helmets. Carbon plates are incorporated into the outer shell of the helmet, making the Alpina Rootage more resistant and lighter. At the same time, polycarbonate inserts reinforce the large air openings which, together with internal ducts, guarantee the best possible interior ventilation. It is equipped with antibacterial pads made of CoolMax® material for maximum comfort. The edges of the helmet are finished with Edge Protect. A large visor provides more visual protection. The equipment also includes the very high-quality and height-adjustable Run System Ergo Flex - an added plus in comfort and safety.

Technology:

Carbon Tec:
Carbon tec provides the best possible protection. High-performance material carbon is processed using the Inmold method. Thus, the helmet is extremely robust, but at the same time has a low weight. The integrated carbon plates in the outer shell make the helmet more resistant and lighter. Forces acting on the helmet at specific points are absorbed by the carbon fibres, distributed over a larger area and thus weakened.

Run System Ergo Flex:
The Run System Ergo Flex is the lightest and most comfortable fitting system by Alpina. The filigree construction nestles evenly against the head and thus increases protection. The Ergo Flex Run System can be adjusted via a fine grid - a helmet cannot be adjusted more individually, smoothly or comfortably.

Y-Clip:
A helmet can only protect well as long as it remains in the optimal position during an impact. The fixation of the two straps under the ear plays a decisive role. The Alpina Y-Clip system guarantees millimetre-accurate adjustment - in a matter of seconds.

Hi-EPS:
The inner shell of every Alpina helmet is made of Hi-EPS (" High Expanded Polystyrene" ). It consists of microscopically small air chambers which optimally absorb the forces acting in the event of an impact. Hi-EPS ensures extra-thin wall thicknesses and narrow helmet shapes in spite of optimum protection.

Edge Protect:
Edge Protect is a processing technique that ensures that In-Mold helmets have no sharp edges. This reduces the risk of injury in two ways: On the one hand, the hands are spared when handling the helmet, on the other hand, the neck and shoulder area is protected from scratches in the event of a collision with the lower edge of the helmet.

Ceramic Shell:
All Alpina In-Mold helmets are fitted with this break-resistant and scratch-resistant polycarbonate shell. The blank is stretched under strong heat onto the shape of the later helmet and pressed with high pressure onto its Hi-EPS body. The material is characterised by several qualities at the same time: it is break-resistant, scratch-resistant, UV-stable and antistatic.

In-Mold Tec:
In the In-Mold production process, the polycarbonate helmet shell is " baked" with the EPS granulate of the helmet body under great heat and pressure. This creates a large and inseparable connection between the upper and lower shell. Advantage: The helmet is very light and at the same time extremely stable.

Shield Protect:
The removable shield protects the face both from dirt and direct sunlight.

Antibacterial Interior:
The padding guards against the formation of germs and odours when sweating. The helmet pads are climatologically-tested and are extra gentle on skin. They can be easily removed and washed at a maximum temperature of 40° C.
