#bikeschool: MET SineThesis Review

( ED: Please note that there will be no discussion in this article regarding whether you SHOULD or shouldn’t wear a helmet… you SHOULD. Don’t be an ass!)

I had two main requirements when searching the plethora of helmets on the market, firstly that it was comfortable and secondly it should look Pro. I’m easily distracted (I am after all a man-shaped human) and annoyances like an ill-fitted skid lid can easily turn a great ride into a slog, oh and I like looking good on the bike so the Pro look speaks for itself! Whilst perusing the various online cycle shops and checking out some of the Pro team’s kit lockers it was clear that if you want top quality in a cycle helmet, you may want to talk to the bank manager about a re-mortgage option on your house! Which is why I was very lucky to get my hands on Met’s top of the range helmet, the Sine Thesis. The story of how I got it will have to wait for another day but suffice it to say that my LBS owner and I are much better acquainted now and my wallet did not get abused!

Sine Thesis, Fit & Comfort

As you would expect from an expensive helmet, it is packed with features and the related corporate blurb about how good these features are but there are, in my opinion, two outstanding parts to the product; the ICELite technology and the previously mentioned Gel02 . ICELite is described as a:

Composite Exoskeleton, integrated into the In-Moulding process allowing structural performance beyond established standards. With deflectors allowing a ‘acceleration of the ventilation

…which basically means it’s a pretty breezy lid! Joking aside, it is a very well ventilated helmet which aims to give a flow of air even at slow speeds, when climbing say, which is often when the body needs the effects of cooling and ventilation the most. I have no idea how the deflectors work, I’m sure there was some wind tunnel testing and there are some strange-looking drawings and computer models that can be seen in the video below, but I know that the results have left me wondering how I have coped for so long using such an inferior helmet without my head catching on fire! One thing I would say regarding a helmet advertised as being so focused on cooling features is don’t be scared of using it in less hospitable weather. As mentioned earlier, I am a man-sized human and thus bloomin’ impatient. Do you think I was going to wait for warm weather and sunny conditions to take out my new helmet for its first ride… yeah right! No I took it out when it was around 5-6% celsius and it performed wonderfully. I thought I’d end up with a skull-cap made of ice but the natural heat produced from the fiery furnace of my inner-Merckx kept the flow of air toasty warm and very comfortable. My first experience was a delight and that is always pleasing.

The current £135/$210 price tag definitely puts the Met Sine Thesis up there as one of my more expensive pieces of bike equipment (lucky I know the LBS owner eh!?) but I believe it is well worth the money, which no doubt will be shown when other companies roll out their versions of Gelo02. I’m very happy with it and am sure it will give me many years of wonderful service. Everyone has their favourite brands so if you are a Bell or Giro fan for example and will only ever buy those products, congratulations on wasting the last few minutes of your life. If you are more open-minded and you enjoy quality products with form and functionality, try the Met Sine Thesis, I defy you to be impressed.

The Met Sine Thesis is awarded 4 out of 5 #bikeschool taco’s

A great helmet, great quality, I have been using it for three years and no complaints. Size suit perfect for me. Especially love the gel pads, which do not need to be washed every day!

The Sine Thesis is Absolute Junk. I did a lot of research when trying to find a good helmet to replace my five-year old Giro Atmos. I was happy with my Giro, but wanted to try something different. The Sine Thesis looked good in photos and seemed to get good reviews. I was very disappointed as soon as I opened the box of the Met helmet. The manufacturing looks cheap compared to the price paid. As soon as I put it on my head the low quality manufacturing held true in functionality as well – the dial adjustment mechanism fell apart with only a couple of turns to fit it to my head…I mean actually came apart in pieces. The dial adjustment components and housing look like something that comes in a Kinder Egg. If you are not familiar with a Kinder Egg, it is a hollow chocolate egg that contains a cheap plastic toy for children to assemble. Yes, the mechanism is of that level of quality. I was able to snap the pieces back together well enough to attempt fit to see if maybe I want to return the helmet and try another. The front Gel pads seemed nice, but the sides couldn’t be adjusted to touch my head…yes, I used the Met size chart to select the correct size helmet before my purchase. But even worse on the fit was the sharp edges from the plastic straps holding the web to the rear adjustment mechanism, which dug into the back of my head, likely to cause a headache within an hour – assuming I would be willing to trust this helmet with my life and wear it on a ride. I think I will go back to Giro.

I got a new Catlike this year and the ventilation is amazing.

The Gel02 sounds very interesting.  The acceleration of ventilation would be a welcome addition in the summer.  I’ve got this saved and will think about getting a new helmet next spring.

They may have come down in price by then!

I have been thinking of getting a new helmet and have looked at what’s available at my local bike shop.  I have never seen the met brand but I would like to see how it fits.  I have a farily small head so I wonder if there small size will fit me okay.  I wouldn’t want to buy it online without trying it on first.

I’m sure there is a size that would fit most heads. The rear retention system is pretty sturdy and the Kevlar straps hug the side of your head, very comfortable

Nice review! As a folically challenged man I am curious about how this padding would work for me, sans hair and all. I am glad to see some helmet reviews though as I am needing a new one before next season! 

It is very comfortable Aaron. The pads don’t feel hard and you forget about them almost instantly. Great innovation

Sugar Alternatives for Energy and Hydration

Question:  I am using the homebrew sugar formulations (sometimes added to green tea).  I am also trying to wean myself off 1/2 dose adrenalean “lip tonic delivery system” (biorhythm brand- caffeine, hoodia g, synephrine, yohimbe) capsule for energy.

My question is other than juice, can you suggest modifications in lieu of table sugar for energy and hydration.

Both raw/organic honey or agave can work great in the homebrew (substitute in the same quantities for the sugar, or to taste), but you do have to shake well in order to make sure they don’t settle out.  Have you tried either of these?  Also, make sure to use at least the minimum amount of salt recommended in the homebrew as the temps rise, you need the sodium replacement if you’re sweating.

None really, except maybe the gel pads...if I actually trusted the helmet enough to wear when riding

MET Sine Thesis helmet review

Well-made helmet that's high on style but has issues with comfort

Robin Wilmott

MET was an early exponent of in-moulding for the outer shell of helmets, and this continues under much of the lower edge of the Sine Thesis, although some parts still lack complete protection.

• Highs: Bold styling, upper silicone pads
• Lows: Brow pad, strap position, comfort

Long vents and angular styling with bold colours are unmistakeably Italian. Those long large vents force a lot of air through the helmet, cooling superbly via the deep internal channels. There’s lots of options for sunglass storage when climbing too.

The snug overall fit is helped by the minimal silicone pads, but there is one hard rear section behind one of the pads, which rubbed against our head and really wasn’t comfortable for testers with larger, more-rounded heads. The large silicone brow pad presses evenly against the skin though, and doesn’t heat up as much as a normal pad.

The rear cradle has four height adjustment stops and fits quite low, with a rotary dial to adjust the size, which is simple to use, even on the move.

The ventilated straps keep the helmet’s overall weight down, but they unfortunately exit the rim of the helmet at the temple at an angle that forces them to twist, and present much of their profile to the wind.

Comfort wasn’t great – we found we would often catch even short hair in the rear cradle when putting the helmet on, and the silicone brow pad does leave parallel lines on your forehead. It didn’t feel very comfortable on the bike either, there a few unwelcome internal edges, which were hard to ignore.

Apart from the serious price tag, what sets the Sine Thesis apart from the opposition? Met were early exponents at using in-moulding technology in their helmets. This process involves the foam interior liner of the helmet being blown into the external shell during manufacturing, hence the name. The advantages to this are the helmet weight is reduced as the liner is fused to the outer shell which in turn can be thinner and therefore lighter.

As seen in the Met design of the Sine Thesis, they are able to incorporate more vents and all round the helmet without compromising the integrity of the shell or liner.

It does mean that Met can get a little funky with their design and angles offering riders a more interesting shape. As production costs have come down the in-mould construction technology is no longer the preserve of high end helmets. The technology is now being used further down the range.

That's the technology taken care of so what's it like to wear? The Met Sine Thesis helmet is one of the best. The fit is helped by the in-moulding as already covered. This gives the helmet a slightly bulbous look but isn't translated into a weight penalty.

The inner cradle on the inside of the back of the helmet can also be adjusted and there are four different height settings. That little extra adjustment can ensure you get the most comfortable fitting. On the front the straps are ventilated which not only saves weight but provides a soft finish against your skin. The straps are anchored to the helmet at the back through the exoskeleton and at the side. To get the cradle to the right tension there is a dial adjuster on the back. The helmet straps are designed to aid aerodynamics and their tensile stress is more evenly dissipated in the event of impact. If that wasn't enough the straps are made from Kevlar which improves breathability and is super tough.

Whereas on other helmets you have a yard or so of extra strap on the Sine Thesis you have a sealed end but with plenty of room to adjust. That adjustment is just a case of sliding the strap adjuster which can be done with one hand; no fiddling or having to feed the strap through. The straps fit comfortably on the back of the head and down the side.

Sitting against your head inside the helmet are small silicone pads. These gel pads are as comfortable as the usual foam pads but they don't retain the sweat. Their hypo-allergenic and anti-bacterial properties can only help keep your head protected from more than just the heat. My only gripe here is the line of pads on the front can get caught if you wear a skull cap or hat which can move them out of position and cause irritation.

Met claim that with only 20% of the helmet in contact with your head, the airflow is increased and you stay cooler. The reality is the Met Sine Thesis helmet does allow the air to flow nicely which will be a big bonus on warmer rides. On cold or windy rides the simple addition of a skull cap does a decent job of reducing this effectiveness. The 20 vents will do a good job when the weather hots up.

The style of the Sine Thesis won't appeal to all. It has a rather flat shape with no real drop at the back. The slightly shallow shape may not seem to provide as much protection but the cradle allows the helmet to sit in the right area without sitting heavily on your head.

On the outside there are reflective elements to aid your visibility, more so from behind.

The Sine Thesis comes in two sizes, medium covering 54-57 cm and large which will cater for heads 58-61 cm. The medium weighs in at 275g and the large is 55g heavier. The medium version on test certainly doesn't feel heavy on the head or in the hand. If the test colour variant in red, black and white doesn't appeal there are four others. To help you transport the Met Sine Thesis around there is a neoprene bag.

Comfortable, light lid that provides plenty of protection without compromising style

Tell us what the product is for, and who it's aimed at. What do the manufacturers say about it? How does that compare to your own feelings about it?

A helmet is a very personal thing. Its not just style, colour or fit but what safety features are included and none of this must compromise the ability to fit and fit well. It needs to be adjustable without affecting fit. The Met Sine Thesis does just that. It offers style, a choice of colours and is easy to adjust to get the fit just so.

Tell us some more about the technical aspects of the product?

Met were early exponents at using in-moulding technology in their helmets. This process involves the foam interior liner of the helmet being blown into the external shell during manufacturing, hence the name. The advantages to this are the helmet weight is reduced as the liner is fused to the outer shell which in turn can be thinner and therefore lighter.

It does mean that Met can get a little funky with their design shapes and angles offering riders a more interesting lid, perhaps even unique. As production costs have come down the in-mold construction technology is no longer the preserve of high end helmets. The technology is now being used further down the range.

That's the technology taken care of so how does it wear? The Met Sine Thesis helmet is one of the best. The fit is helped by the in-moulding as already covered. This gives the helmet a slightly bulbous look but isn't translated into a weight penalty.

The inner cradle on the inside of the back of the helmet can also be adjusted. With four different height settings. A little extra tweaking that can ensure you have no excuse not to get the most comfortable fitting. On the front the straps are ventilated which not only saves weight but provides a soft finish against your skin. The straps are anchored to the helmet at the back through the exoskeleton and at the side. To get the cradle to the right tension there is a dial adjuster on the back. The helmet straps are designed to aid aerodynamics and their tensile stress is more evenly dissipated in the event of impact. If that wasn't enough the straps are made from Kevlar which improves breathability and super resistant.

Whereas on other helmets you have a yard or so of extra strap on the Sine Thesis you have a sealed end but with plenty of room to adjust. To do that it is just a case of sliding the strap adjuster which can be done with one hand. No fiddling with or having to feed the strap through. When you wear it the straps fit comfortably on the back of the head and down the side.

The padding inside the helmet is provided by small silicone pads. These gel pads provide as much comfort as the normal pads you get but they don't retain the sweat. Their hypo-allergenic and anti-bacterial properties can only keep your head protected further from not only the heat. My only gripe here is the line of pads on the front can get caught if you wear a skull cap or hat which can move them out of position and cause an irritation.

For ventilation Met claim that with only 20% of the helmet in contact with your head, the airflow is increased and you stay cooler. The reality is the Met Sine Thesis helmet does allow the air to flow nicely which will be a big bonus on warmer rides. On cold or windy rides the simple addition of a skull cap does a decent job of reducing this effectiveness. The 20 vents will do a good job when the weather hots up.

The Kevlar straps are not only easy to use and wipe clean but have proved very robust. There has been no fraying through use. The helmet body itself has an easy wipe clean surface and the addition of the silicone pads mean there is little to remove to wash and increase longevity. The helmet shell has proven to be tough not that it has been put to the test but has survived plenty of use with no detrimental effect.

The in-mould technology used to construct the Met Sine Thesis helmet makes for a lightweight lid. The additional materials used to complete the job help to make it less fiddly than some to adjust and keep clean. You can easily forget you are wearing the helmet, a combination of the lack of weight and the ability to get it to fit well.

Having the ability to adjust the inner cradle up and down as well as for and aft allows you the rider to fine tune the fit. The silicone pads provide a very soft fit directly against the head or on top of a skull cap. The only proviso here is to make sure the lid is fitted well to avoid pushing these pads out of position which can cause irritation. The straps are not only easy to use and clean but to adjust.

At £190 you would expect a lot for a helmet. Met have pulled out all the stops to produce a helmet that offers decent levels of protection but does the expected very well. Easy to adjust, do up and keep clean coupled with stylish graphics complete the package. This may still prove a barrier to some but if you can afford this helmet then it's well worth the expenditure.

Tell us how the product performed overall when used for its designed purpose

Besides a minor concern over the securing of the front row of silicone pads the Met Sine Thesis helmet is a revelation. Providing a good fit with plenty of adjustments, little or no weight penalty and the ability to keep you cool. Overall I'd have to say this is one of the best helmets I have worn in a while.

Tell us what you particularly liked about the product

The helmet is light, well ventilated and easy to adjust to make sure you have a secure fit. With the cradle at the back adjustable both up and down as well as in and out there is no excuse not to get the right fit.

Tell us what you particularly disliked about the product

My only concern with the Met Sine Thesis is the silicone gel pads on the inside of the lid. They provide plenty of comfort but they can be easily caught which can move them out of position and prove uncomfortable.

Did you enjoy using the product? Certainly did.

Would you consider buying the product? Yes - although it is expensive.

Would you recommend the product to a friend? Yes.

A variety of cryogenically-structured polymeric materials are of significant scientific and applied interest in various areas. However, in spite of considerable attention to these materials and intensive elaboration of their new examples, as well as the impressive growth in the number of the publications and patents on this topic over the past two decades, a marked variability of the used terminology and definitions is frequently met with in the papers, reviews, theses, patents, conference presentations, advertising materials and so forth. Therefore, the aim of this brief communication is to specify the basic terms and definitions in the particular field of macromolecular science.

Keywords: cryogel(s); cryostructurate(s); cryostructuring; cryotropic gel-formation; definitions; macroporosity; terms.
