New bluegrass helmet: Rogue Core
Bluegrass is expanding its range. With the new Rogue Core, the MET subsidiary claims to have developed an all-mountain helmet with maximum protection and many comfort features.

When developing the Rogue Core, the Bluegrass designers had one goal above all others: maximum protection.

All-round protection for the head

An enlarged outer shell also covers sensitive areas of the head. This should also provide optimum protection for the temples and the back of the head. The flexible visor, the elaborately crafted EPS shell and the optional C2 system from MIPS inside the helmet are designed to absorb both linear forces and dangerous rotational forces in the event of an impact.

  The EPS shell and the MIPS C2 system integrated into the inside of the helmet are designed to absorb as many forces as possible in the event of an impact and thus protect the brain and neck from dangerous injuries.Photo: Met Helmets The EPS shell and the MIPS C2 system integrated into the inside of the helmet are designed to absorb as many forces as possible in the event of an impact and thus protect the brain and neck from dangerous injuries.

Comfortable and a perfect fit

The new adjustment system is designed to ensure an optimum fit. This allows the helmet to be customised to the head. The 360-degree circumferential headband is designed to fit snugly without leaving pressure marks. The internal air channels and 16 ventilation openings ensure constant cooling on hot tours. There are also two additional cut-outs under the visor to prevent sunglasses from fogging up.

  The flexible visor should not only protect you from branches on the trail, but also adapt to the helmet shell in the event of an impact and not break.Photo: Achille Montanelli The flexible visor should not only protect you from branches on the trail, but also adapt to the helmet shell in the event of an impact and not break.

A guide on the back of the helmet keeps goggles in place. The adjustable visor allows the goggles to be easily stowed away on long rides or during breaks. You can put your sunglasses in the visor openings when they are not on your nose. The straps are integrated into the EPS shell and the chin strap closes magnetically. The Fidlock system virtually snaps into place automatically and can be easily opened again by sliding it sideways with one hand.
