Giro Climbing Challenge

Climb big for a finishers-only discount on Giro’s best helmet yet

Challenge Ended: August 7, 2015
Strava cyclists have exclusive access to the all-new Synthe MIPS in a limited edition design. We’ll even offer this beauty at a healthy discount – but of course, that discount must be earned. Climb a cumulative 10,000 meters from now until August 7 and you’ll get early-release access and $50 off.

That’s one of our highest Climbing Challenges to date, for Giro’s best helmet yet, during cycling’s biggest month of the year… time to ride.
