Top Class Aero Helmet Long Distance is the pinnacle of triathlon. Just a few seconds can decide whether or not you reach the top of the podium. The key is the fastest device. The new UVEX Race 8 has already impressed top athletes, including Timo Bracht, Laura Philipp and the Challenge winner of the Roth rake, Bart Aernouts. Uvex Race 8 was developed by UVEX engineers and athletes from BMC-etixx pro triathlon teams. The German triathlete Laura Philipp helped to further optimize the helmet. To improve aerodynamics, form is a shortened tears. The helmet sides have specially arranged dimples, like those on golf balls, that reduce drag and prevent turbulence. A central front vent at the point of maximum standing air pressure ensures the air flows in one movement around and through the helmet. The magnetic visor lens with Litemirror Smoke (S1) can be operated with one hand, fits perfectly with the helmet and closes seamlessly. When not in use, it easily stores on the helmet shell in a specially designed parking position. The shape of the helmet perfectly covers the shoulders, so that the air flows over the back of the head and body over the back of the head and the body with little turbulence. In wind tunnel tests, UVEX Race 8 shows a significant reduction in power and time. The higher the speed, the more watts it stores. Tests with UVEX athletes have measured the savings in wind resistance in the overall system of up to 4.2% compared to the previous model.
