Foggy To Launch New LS2 Helmet

LS2 have enlisted Carl Fogarty to unveil their new Challenger helmet to the UK public at Motorcycle Live.

Developed by LS2’s design team in in Spain, working with supported riders from MOTOGP, MOTO2 and MOTO3, the Challenger is their most innovative helmet to date. Its HPFC shell is a carefully layered blend of fiberglass weave and organic resin that weights just 1385 grams (+/- 50 g).

Track-inspired features include a 3mm flat visor with tear-off mounts and emergency release system cheek pads. Road riders are catered for with a Pinlock anti-fog insert, advanced venting system, drop-down sun shield and quick release strap.

“LS2 have done a fantastic job in bringing two of my classic helmet designs into the modern era” says the 7-times World Champion.

“Next year marks the 20th anniversary of my last World Superbike title so we thought this would be the perfect time to recreate that winning helmet. And 2020 will be the 30th anniversary of my Formula One and Senior wins at the TT, wearing another iconic design. These are top of the range helmets which combine a winning performance and design.”

Available in sizes XXS-3XL, retail prices start at just £249.99 for solid colours; graphics cost £269.99 and the Foggy replicas will be £299.

New Carbon Modular Helmet From LS2

Travel light whenever and wherever you ride with LS2’s new Vortex, which features a carbon fibre shell, Bluetooth connectivity and is dual-homologated as both a full face and open face helmet.

Made from 100% high-grade carbon fibre – the same material used in the aeronautical industry, Formula 1 and MotoGP – the Vortex weighs just 1300g*, significantly less than regular flip-front helmets which can be upwards of 1700g.

Alongside the aerodynamic shaping of the shell, the low weight helps keep the wearer’s head stable at speed and reduces pressure on the neck and fatigue on longer stretches – a real bonus when touring.

A full wrap-around neck curtain and one at the chin help keep the wind and weather out, as well as reducing annoying and tiring wind noise – essential when tackling long stretches of motorway or dual carriageway.

This also helps with hearing sat nav directions, rider-to-passenger and bike-to-bike comms, as well as music – all possible as the Vortex is LINKIN Ride Pal Bluetooth-ready, for full wireless connectivity on the move.

The quick-release visor is formed using 3D Optically Correct “A Class” Polycarbonate, which avoids distortion for a clear view of the road ahead, and is supplied with a Pinlock insert to reduce fogging. A drop-down sun shield also features, and is operated using an easy-to-find slider on the left side of the shell.

Inside is a removable and washable hypoallergenic lining for comfort and freshness, plus Dynamic Flow-through Ventilation – with adjustable intake ports, internal channels and exhaust ports – delivering a constant, light flow of air when needed.

The LS2 Vortex is available in sizes XS-XXL (53-64 cm) and retails for £299-.

It is also available with the LINKIN Ride Pal system (RRP £129.99) for the special price of £399.99.

New Stream-line Helmet From LS2

Packed with features to reduce fatigue and wind-noise, alongside increasing vision and comfort, LS2’s new Stream Evo helmet helps riders stay focussed on the road.

The Stream Evo’s HTTP (High Pressure Thermoplastic Technology) outer shell is oval, to follow the shape of the head, and has aerodynamic shaping for stability at speed and to reduce pressure on the neck muscles.

Safety is a priority, so the shell offers high penetration resistance and flexibility for energy dispersion, and the Multi-Density EPS liner absorbs impact forces. For a clear view of the road ahead, the visor is made from 3D Optically Correct A-Class Polycarbonate, a space-age polymer with high resistance to impact, that avoids distortion and offers maximum clarity. It’s scratch and UV-resistant, and Pinlock-ready as standard – a breath deflector is also fitted to help prevent misting.

A drop-down sun visor – easily operated with a gloved hand – deals with the glare from the sun and Dynamic Flow-through Ventilation – with adjustable intake ports, internal channels and exhaust ports – creates a light flow of air, keeping the wearer cool. The hypoallergenic liner is removable and washable for season-long comfort and freshness and a chin curtain is fitted to reduce wind noise inside the helmet.

The LS2 Stream Evo is available in sizes XS-XXL in a choice of 3 plain and 8 eye-catching graphic finishes. Retail prices start at £79.99 for plain colours and graphics cost £89.99. Visit www.ls2helmets.com for more information and to find your local stockist.

The drop down sun visor is easily operated with gloved hands, and has both short and long-step positions to choose between. Like all LS2 visors, it’s made from 3D Optically Correct A-Class Polycarbonate: a space-age polymer with high resistance to impact, that avoids distortion and offers maximum clarity. It’s also scratch and UV-resistant. Should the wearer prefer to wear goggles, there’s a retaining strap at the back.

Inside is a breathable, hypoallergenic liner for comfort and freshness. An oval shell shape, with laser-cut foam inserts and a neck roll, gives a snug comfortable fit. It’s secured by a quick-release steel buckle fastening.
