New Intercom For LS2 Helmets

New Intercom For LS2 HelmetsVoice-operated, Bluetooth® intercom designed for LS2 Helmets.

Hands free and hassle free, the new LS2 4X intercom uses voice-control and Bluetooth® to make staying in touch on the road a breeze.

Co-developed with Cardo, and tailored specially for LS2 Helmets, it features sound by JBL, live intercom for up to four riders, Natural Voice Operation and much more.

A must-have for group rides and touring, the 4X allows live chat with up to four fellow riders at a range of up to 1.2km. Auto-Reconnecting Bluetooth® means if someone separates from the group, they will automatically rejoin when they’re back in range – no stopping at the side of the road and fiddling with buttons to reconnect.

Quick and easy to pair, the 4X will connect with a smartphone and GPS at the same time, so the user can make and receive calls, stream music and hear turn-by-turn directions simultaneously.

Truly hands-free, all this is done without ever having to press a button. Switching and selecting features, and controlling paired devices, can all be carried out with ‘Always On’ Natural Voice Operation; just say “hey Cardo”, tell the 4X what you want, and it will do the rest.

Powerful 40mm high-definition speakers engineered by JBL mean that favourite track, GPS instructions – and those from fellow riders – are all crystal clear. They feature a specially tuned music processor and three distinctive audio profiles.

For complete peace of mind, the 4X is – as you’d expect – fully weatherproof. The battery allows an impressive talk time of 13 hours, and it only takes 2 hours for a full recharge. Plus, if you need a quick top-up while on the road, just 20 minutes of charging provides 2 hours of talk time.

Software updates are also easy. They can either be done Over-the-Air in the Cardo Connect smartphone app, or via computer with the supplied USB type C cable.

The LS2 4X retails at £239.99 (including VAT)and is compatible with the Advant, Advant X, Advant X Carbon, Infinity II and Vector II helmets.

Selected LS2 Helmet models are available with the 4X pre-installed, offering a significant cost saving as well as removing the need for fitting; for example the Advant X pre-fitted with the 4X retails at £429.99, a saving of over £100 compared to the price of purchasing the helmet and intercom separately (£299.99 + £239.99).

Bolton: a stylish name for your new bodyguard

The new jacket from LS2 is the ideal ally for comfortable and safe everyday motorcycling, especially in the difficult mid-season.

The year 2023 was once again a testament to the rise of two-wheeled urban mobility in Europe. LS2, aware of the need to protect all these users who ride motorbikes on a daily basis, presents the Bolton jacket. A lightweight and comfortable companion that offers maximum safety, without losing sight of the importance of a careful and metropolitan design. With removable protections on shoulders and elbows, CE Level 1 certified and made of three-layer softshell, the new LS2 jacket is available in a men’s and women’s version.

For years, motorbikes have been the undisputed protagonist of urban mobility. A role that continues to grow exponentially, at the same pace as the need to protect and ensure the safety of all motorcyclists who travel daily on their mounts. While it is true that there is an important awareness when it comes to quality equipment for long routes or trips, it is essential that this awareness extends to the cities. This is where LS2, a manufacturer of helmets and motorbike equipment, comes into play. LS2 is committed to creating an accessible product catalogue that combines first-class materials and the latest technology.

One of the latest additions to their portfolio is the LS2 Bolton waterproof jacket, an urban style jacket designed specifically for the in-between seasons and mild winters. It is made of triple layer softshell and is waterproof and windproof, making it an unbeatable ally even on days when the weather is bad. The rider’s safety is guaranteed thanks to the removable protections on shoulders and elbows, certified according to the EN1621-1:2012 standard, at CE Level 1. In addition, a back protector can be incorporated (the LS2 851 Level 2) and it is prepared for a chest protector.

Its light weight and the incorporation of a thermal lining and hood, both detachable, as well as a waterproof front zip closure, make it an extremely comfortable and functional garment, as shown by the inclusion of a front chest pocket and side pockets, and reflective strips for total visibility of the rider in all conditions. Design also plays an important role. With a sober and urban character, it stands out for its fit that adapts perfectly to the rider’s body and for its casual and metropolitan touch.

The LS2 Bolton waterproof jacket is available in black and in a wide range of sizes from S to 5XL for the men’s version, and from XS to 5XL for the women’s version, for a recommended price of 149 €.

New LS2 All Terrain Adventure Glove

Flexible, breathable and designed for comfort on highways and byways, LS2’s versatile All Terrain Gloves are a must for adventure-seekers. 

All Terrain use goat skin in their construction because it is tough enough to resist abrasion from tarmac, yet soft and supple enough to allow plenty of feedback from the controls when riding on tracks. It’s double layered on the palm and other key areas, for maximum durability.

For added protection there are Level 1-certified TPU protectors over the knuckles, and padded sections at the base of the hand and over the vulnerable scaphoid area. As you’d expect, the gloves are fully certified to the latest CE safety standard.

The rest of the All Terrain’s shell is a lightweight, flexible textile containing neoprene and lycra for flexibility and breathability – a must for demanding days off-road. The goat skin sections are also perforated to help heat and perspiration escape.

Stretch panels at the finger joints and lycra sections between each finger help with precise operation of the controls – crucial when tackling loose surfaces and a silicone print on the palm improves grip on the bars.

The short cuff design sits easily under riding jackets, and has hook and loop closure for a snug and secure fit. There’s no need to remove the gloves to operate devices either, as both index fingers are touchscreen compatible too.

LS2 All Terrain Gloves come in both men’s (sizes S-2XL) and ladies’ (XS-L) versions, in four colourways: Black, Black/Blue, Grey/Red and Black/Hi-Vis Yellow. All retail at only £49.99 including VAT.

Trio of LS2 Challenger Helmet graphics

Developed with LS2’s MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3 riders, the Challenger Carbon combines the latest race technology with first class safety and practicality for road riding.

There are three new colour options for 2022;

  1. One of two new ‘Alloy’ graphics combines Solid Carbon, luxurious titanium/chrome overlays and splashes of orange, that are striking in their own right, but would also complement colours found on many bikes.
  2. The sporty White/Blue/Red ‘Alloy’ option looks the part with a wide variety of motorcycles using that colour combination.
  3. ‘Fold’ – the third new graphic – will definitely draw attention, with its eye-catching Hi-Vis Yellow highlights.

In all colour options, the Challenger C’s 100% high-grade wide weave carbon fibre shell offers high penetration resistance and energy dispersion, yet weighs just 1350 grams. As you’d expect, it’s both ACU Gold and ECE 22.05 certified for track and road use.

The shell comes in three outer sizes, for the smallest, lightest possible helmet in each fitment range, and has a long-oval shape to follow the natural contour of the head.

A quick-release, wide aperture visor comes with a Pinlock Max Vision Anti Fog System as standard and there’s a flip-down internal sun visor too.

Dynamic Flow-through Ventilation keeps the wearer cool and comfortable, while the breathable, hypoallergenic liner comes with Emergency Release System cheek pads.

The LS2 Challenger Carbon is available in sizes XXS – 3XL and retails at £329.99 for the new graphics. Prices start at £299.99 for the ‘Solid’ Carbon option.

It comes complete with High Quality Bag, Pinlock Max Vision, Tinted Visor, Reflective Stickers and an Air Bag Support.

Dynamic Flow-through Ventilation – with adjustable intake ports at the chin and crown, internal channels and exhaust ports – keeps the rider cool and comfortable.

New LS2 Snow Winter Riding Gloves

Light, flexible and packed with practical features to deal with the cold and wet, LS2 Snow gloves offer comfort and control on chilly winter rides.
