How Does the Kask Elemento Stay Aero and Still Breathe?

The Kask Elemento in Oxford Blue is the brand's top-of-the-range all-round helmet, developed with the INEOS Grenadiers for road, gravel, cyclocross, and cross-country racing. Fluid Carbon 12 is the reason it does two things at once. The composite technopolymer spreads impact energy more evenly across the shell, which let Kask enlarge the internal air channels while shrinking the external vent openings. Bigger channels move more air, smaller openings cut less into the wind. Inside, Multipod, a 3D-printed elastomer padding, handles rotational and linear impact energy the same way regardless of the direction the force arrives from.

The OCTOFIT+ retention system uses an over-injected rubber dial that is easy to find and turn with gloves on, plus a redesigned vertical stabilizer that keeps the fit steady. The HYVENT structure is built to maximize airflow and thermal regulation, and a reflective graphic at the back adds visibility on dark mornings. Inner padding is merino wool, the chinstrap is polyester, the shell finish is shiny, and claimed weight is 300 grams. It meets CPSC 1203 and was developed against Kask's own Rotational Impact WG11 Test. This listing is the Large, which Kask sizes at 59 to 62 cm, so run a tape just above your ears before you order.
