A drag-reducing, aerodynamic gravel, road, and XC MTB cycling helmet, featuring a versatile half-shell design for fast riding and racing, increasing performance without adding excess weight.
Kudo Aero is a fast, safe, and efficient performance cycling helmet designed for high-speed road, gravel, and XC riding and racing, featuring a fully adjustable fit, integrated light, enhanced ventilation, and MIPS Air Node system.
This helmet has been awarded a 5-star rating from the preeminent safety research team at the Virginia Tech Helmet Lab.
MINIMALIST DESIGN. MAXIMUM SPEED.
Kudo Aero is a high-performance, half-shell cycling helmet designed for disciplines where aerodynamic efficiency is crucial. Sharing much of its design with the Kudo, Kudo Aero takes aerodynamics to the next level, making it an ideal choice for fast-paced rides and races.
AERODYNAMIC SHELL, REAR SPOILER
The top surface of Kudo Aero features a sleek, smooth shell that promotes optimal air attachment, reducing resistance and drag. Additionally, the rear breakaway spoiler delays airflow separation, further enhancing aerodynamic performance—an impressive feature for a traditional half-shell helmet.
VENTILATION, COMFORT, AND SAFETY
Despite its aerodynamic focus, Kudo Aero doesn't compromise on comfort. Two front vents and rear heat extractors ensure efficient thermoregulation, keeping riders cool during intense efforts. The helmet is certified to both EU and CPSC standards, and its rounded shape is designed to reduce surface grip during impact, potentially lessening the force in a crash.
FURTHER IMPACT PROTECTION
The helmet’s crossbridge element, embedded in the EPS foam, efficiently distributes impact forces across the helmet for full-coverage protection. The MIPS Air Node system, seamlessly integrated into the padding, dissipates rotational forces during a crash. This low-friction layer is lightweight, easy to clean, and provides advanced protection without compromising on comfort.
DIALED-IN FIT
Kudo Aero features an advanced fit system with a micrometric dial at the occipital stabilizer for tilt and eyewear compatibility adjustments. A bespoke crown adjustment allows riders to fine-tune the fit to the exact shape of their head while lightweight ripstop webbing provides full adjustability around the ears.
INTEGRATED VISIBILITY
For added safety, Kudo Aero comes with a removable passive reflector at the rear and a USB-rechargeable LED taillight. The taillight offers multiple lighting modes for both daytime and nighttime visibility, ensuring rider safety in all conditions.
