What sets the GMS Gelato apart in practice
Impressive safety: The Gelato complies with the current ECE 22.06 certification. This is not just marketing talk – this standard means that your head will receive the best possible protection in the event of an accident. The robust polycarbonate shell can withstand even harsh conditions. During my long-distance rides, the build quality has always proven to be solid. Sun visor – the clever detail: What other helmet manufacturers sell as an accessory is already integrated here. The flip-down sun visor is practically ingenious when you suddenly ride out of the shady old town into the midday sun. No need for annoying removal and replacement – one quick movement and you have a clear view again. Comfort for longer distances: The 100% polyester inner lining with removable, antiseptic cheek pads is a big plus. After a tour, you can simply wash them – especially in summer when sweat accumulates. The head ventilation ensures sufficient air circulation so that it doesn't get too warm under the helmet. This is particularly noticeable on longer journeys, such as a weekend trip to the Lüneburg Heath.
Made for glasses wearers: The glasses channel is not a gimmick, but a well-thought-out solution. Anyone who rides with glasses knows that a helmet without a channel quickly becomes torture. Here, glasses fit easily without pressing or slipping. This is relevant for you if you are on the road every day.
