The ABUS AirBreaker is an aero road helmet built for racing, where every second counts. Long distances, scorching asphalt, high-speed descents – this is where the series comes into its own. Large air inlets channel airflow through the helmet to keep your head cool, from steep climbs to the final sprint.

Drawing on insights from the development of the ABUS GameChanger and refined through wind tunnel testing, the AirBreaker is at home in the peloton but equally suited to serious recreational riders. From the original AirBreaker and AirBreaker 2.0 to the MIPS version, the series covers everything from a lightweight race helmet to the flagship model with rotational protection. Every ABUS AirBreaker helmet combines high airflow with aerodynamic Multi Speed Design. Find yours in a wide range of colors and configurations in our shop.

Why choose the ABUS AirBreaker?

The AirBreaker gives you the ventilation, aerodynamics, and fit you need when the pace picks up.

  • Keep your cool: Air inlets and internal channels direct airflow over your head, even in hot conditions.
  • Aero without compromise: Low drag and open ventilation work together rather than against each other.
  • Ready to ride: The adjustment dial and padding provide a comfortable fit from the start.

ABUS AirBreaker helmet models at a glance

Choose your AirBreaker based on what matters most to you. Go lightweight with the original AirBreaker, step up to optimized aerodynamics, ventilation, and an updated adjustment system with the AirBreaker 2.0, or add rotational protection with the MIPS version. Whichever you choose, you get race-level ventilation and aerodynamics.

ABUS AirBreaker – the original

The original AirBreaker is the proven race classic, built for ventilation and aerodynamics. Large air inlets, low weight, aerodynamic FlowStraps, a precise Zoom Ace adjustment dial, and the rear AirPort for your glasses keep it race-ready. A great choice if you want a proven, highly ventilated race helmet.

ABUS AirBreaker 2.0 – the new generation

The AirBreaker 2.0 builds on its predecessor’s dynamic shape with more refined lines. A new Aero Blade made from carbon-reinforced material at the rear reduces drag. The Zoom adjustment dial and Flow Straps Pro provide a more stable fit, while the Eyewear Port securely holds your glasses at the front. Together, these updates help you get even more from your helmet.

ABUS AirBreaker 2.0 MIPS – added rotational protection

The MIPS version adds a low-friction MIPS liner to the AirBreaker 2.0 to help counter rotational forces in a crash without compromising ventilation. You also get a magnetic Fidlock buckle. It’s the flagship safety model for maximum protection.

ABUS AirBreaker technologies

The AirBreaker series focuses on a select set of technologies, all working toward the same goal: balancing ventilation, aerodynamics, and protection without sacrificing one for another.

Aero Blade on the ABUS AirBreaker

The Aero Blade sits at the upper rear of the AirBreaker 2.0. Made from carbon-reinforced material, it smooths airflow behind the helmet to reduce drag while supporting cooling airflow. Carbon makes this possible without adding weight. The result: more speed for the same effort on flat sections and descents.

Acti Cage on the ABUS AirBreaker

Acti Cage is a structural reinforcement integrated into the helmet’s EPS foam. Hidden from view, it holds the construction together and distributes forces. By adding stability, Acti Cage allows for larger air inlets without compromising protection. You get better airflow while retaining the protection you need in a crash.

Forced Air Cooling on the ABUS AirBreaker

Forced Air Cooling channels air through the helmet for continuous ventilation. Internal channels connect the air inlets, drawing air in at the front, directing it over your head, and releasing it at the rear. You’ll notice the difference on hot race days and slower climbs, when cooling would otherwise drop off. Airflow remains open even with your glasses stored in the helmet.
