Rudy Project Wingspan

The Rudy Project Wingspan helmet is the result of years of research, testing, and collaboration between the world's leading aerodynamic engineers and top athletes. With its streamlined and compact shape, revolutionary short tail, high-quality ventilation systems, and unique multifunctionality, the Wingspan is exceptionally versatile, fast, cool, and a design marvel.

Thanks to the partnership between Rudy Project and John Cobb, one of the gurus in cycling aerodynamics, the Wingspan can be considered one of the lightest, best-ventilated, and aerodynamically efficient time trial helmets in the world.

To verify aerodynamic efficiency and optimize every detail of the Wingspan, Rudy Project engineers, along with John Cobb, conducted numerous successful tests. During this testing phase, the angle of back posture, wind angle of attack, distance, and speed were analyzed and optimized with a variety of riders to develop the best possible helmet. As a result of these tests, the unique design of the tail was developed, which not only improves aerodynamics but also accommodates the various riding positions and back profiles of cyclists in time trials and triathlons. This allowed the Wingspan to overcome a well-known hurdle in the design of aerodynamic helmets, where certain tail shapes only yield optimal results in very specific riding positions. Consequently, the Wingspan demonstrates proven performance thanks to its highly aerodynamic silhouette, groundbreaking compact and short tail, and geometrically positioned ventilation slots. It can be worn by any cyclist, leading to optimal results, making it the best choice for any serious triathlete or competitive cyclist.
