And for this years tour down under Specialized brought these colors to life in a limited-edition collection featuring thier lauded S-Works prevail II.
The new angi crash sensor gives you and your loved ones peace of mind like never beforewhen combined with their ios or android app the sensor will detect a crash and send a text message to specified contacts in your phone. It also syncs with the app and strava to provide gps-based activity tracking.
We've teamed up with mips researchers to introduce mips sla new ultra-light and supremely comfortable version of mips that's available exclusively on Specialized helmets. With mips sl we've essentially integrated mips technology within the helmet padding itself. Mips sl's minimalist "watchband" attachment system provides 10 to 15 millimeters of rotation in every direction and offers the same brain protection benefits as other versions of mips while also ushering in a new level of comfort and weight savings.
When they set out to improve the original S-Works prevail we knew that we had our work cut out for us. How could we improve on the industry benchmark for fit ventilation and comfort? By listening to our ridersthats how. Through this we realized that there were a few aspects of the original prevail that needed to be changed with the biggest request being for a lower-sitting design.
We thought to ourselves "thinking big shouldn't result in bigger helmets" so with the prevail ii we set out to prove that big ideas can come in smaller packages. It all starts with our patented eps construction that relies on multi-density foam that's paired with a robotically woven aramid-reinforced skeleton. This comes with a reduction in the overall size creating a smaller profile that fits lower down on the head for a better fit and safety.
It also has deep internal channels that are aligned from front-to-rear so the air intake and exhaust are optimized for unparalleled cooling over the entire head. And in the win tunnel we found these new designs amounted to six seconds saved over 40km when compared to a "standard" road helmet. Another standout feature is the gutter action system that manages the flow of sweat keeping it away from your eyes and dripping it off of the pads over your temple.
In the end the S-Works prevail ii is the most complete lightweight race helmet we've ever madeperfect for hot mountainous rides and flat and windy sections alike.
