Overview
Alpinestars built this Supertech motocross helmet around a carbon and aramid shell with MIPS inside and an A-Head system for fine fit adjustment. Four shell sizes keep each size light, and a visor extension blocks roost and sun.
Racers and serious trail riders get a very light carbon shell with strong impact results against the European standard and a long list of safety extras. The box holds only the helmet, and the listed item weight conflicts with the claimed shell weight.
Who it's for
Motocross tracks and hard enduro days suit the ventilation, roost visor and light shell. Street and touring riders need a helmet with a face shield instead.
Pros and cons
- Very light multi-composite shell
- MIPS for rotational impacts
- Four shell sizes cut weight
- Many intake and exhaust ports
- Helmet only in the box
- Item weight entries conflict
- Built for motocross, not road use
Performance notes
Impact energy is handled by the layered carbon and aramid shell, the EPS liner and MIPS, which targets rotational forces. The smooth profile has no external channels, which reduces friction on impact, while the many ports move air through the A-Head fitted interior.
