A tribute to the golden age of cycling: Manta Tadej Pogačar

Tadej has shown that a champion is ready to make the impossible happen - to improve himself every day, to dream and inspire big dreams. The Blačk Edition is a tribute to the golden age of contemporary cycling and its absolute protagonist, Tadej Pogačar, to talent and the spirit of sacrifice in cycling. In this edition, the aerodynamic design of the Manta is emphasized by an even bolder look. Black, a symbol of elegance and authority, is illuminated by intricate golden veins - a reminder of a season full of successes.

How the logo was born

The official logo of Tadej Pogačar was designed internally at MET. The logo is the result of the name and the monogram, which is the central element for the athlete's visual communication system. The initials of the name “T” and “P” are simplified with an agile and dynamic shape that identifies him and symbolically embodies his style, achievements, and distinctive tufts.

Technologies

MIPS Brain Protection

MIPS Brain Protection represents a low-friction layer inside the helmet that causes relative sliding of the skull compared to the helmet at the moment of impact. This process substantially reduces the force of impact, preventing brain damage. MIPS has established that very often during a fall the head hits the ground at a certain angle, which causes rotational shock to the brain. Thanks to the MIPS layer, the helmet absorbs most of the impact and protects you during your activities.
