Hey there, fellow riders, Max here to give you the lowdown on the Fly Racing Formula Carbon helmet. This helmet is packed with features that make it a top contender in the world of helmets.

First off, let’s talk about the construction. The 12K carbon-fibre shell makes this helmet lightweight and durable without sacrificing safety. The adaptive impact system helps prevent injuries by absorbing low-speed linear and rotational impacts, while Conehead EPS technology provides a softer liner for even more protection. Expanded volume EPS is used at key areas of impact along with a polypropylene chin bar to further mitigate any potential damage.

The moulded rubber trim not only looks slick but also includes an integrated nose guard to protect your face from debris and direct impacts. And don’t worry about losing small parts because the custom visor screws are made lightweight for convenience as well as titanium D-rings which add strength where it counts most.

In terms of comfort, this helmet has got you covered too! The moisture-wicking and anti-microbial fabrics used in both the comfort liner and quick-release cheek pads keep things fresh during those hot summer rides or high-intensity races.

But wait, there’s more! Forced air intakes with specific channels through EPS provide excellent ventilation on long rides, so you won’t have to worry about overheating or sweat buildup inside your helmet. Multiple rear exhaust exits allow air to flow out freely so that everyone can breathe easy!

All in all, Fly Racing Formula Carbon Helmet weighs approximately 1290 grams (+/-50g), making it one of our lightest helmets yet while still providing ultimate protection when needed – something every rider deserves!
