The S-M7 Helmet is designed for off-road racing, balancing superior ventilation and comfort in a lightweight package. Its aerodynamic composite shell provides excellent impact protection, while Alpinestars' A-Head Fitment and Visor Detaching Systems enhance performance. Additionally, innovative PLASMA technology at the lower shell edge optimizes energy dissipation in collarbone contact areas.
Features:
- The S-M7 features a smooth, aerodynamic profile that eliminates external channels and potential weak points, ensuring the helmet's structural integrity during impacts.
- The helmet’s curved shell is designed to minimize friction and deflect impact forces, protecting the skull, neck, and spine in a crash.
- PLASMA technology: Alpinestars integrates patented PLASMA into the S-M7’s side pads for enhanced shock absorption, reducing injury risk.
- A-Head Technology: Alpinestars' A-Head Fitment System enables easy adjustments to the helmet's angle and height for an optimized fit.
- Patented Visor Release: The S-M7 features a patented system that detaches the visor during a crash, minimizing helmet damage and reducing the risk of rotational injury.
- The S-M7’s visor automatically detaches from the shell upon impacts over 15 joules for optimal protection, regardless of direction.
- The S-M7 shell sizing solution offers 3 helmet shell sizes and 6 consumer sizes (XS to XXL) for an optimal fit. This design enhances comfort, reduces weight, and, most importantly, improves helmet effectiveness in an impact.
- Hydration System Ready: The helmet incorporates integrated channels on both sides to accommodate a hydration system.
Construction:
- The multi-layer shell combines fibreglass, carbon, and Aramid fibre for optimal impact protection, energy absorption, stability, and durability.
- The patented A-Head Fitment System allows easy adjustment of the angle and height at which the helmet sits on the head.
- Ultra-ventilated helmet with 20 individual intake and exhaust ports, not including the eye port, with 13 intakes and 7 exhausts, for optimum ventilation.
- Eject Removal System Ready: the helmet accommodates an eject removal system with a removable insert on top of the EPS.
- Removable Lining: With a 3D foam for optimum comfort, the lining features an anti-microbial treatment for long-lasting freshness.
- The S-M7’s fit can be customized with Alpinestars replacement cheek pads, available in various thicknesses and compatible with all shell sizes.
- Lightweight: ECE 1280g and DOT 1340g for a size medium.
- The S-M7 is available in 2 versions: ECE2206 and DOT homologation standards.
Protection:
- The helmet features advanced moulding technology and a pre-preg composite construction for improved performance and an ultra-lightweight design.
- The unique shell lay-up in the S-M7 construction provides exceptional impact protection, surpassing current helmet regulation standards for both linear and oblique impacts.
- The S-M7 Helmet features a patented EPS liner shape and coating, along with an advanced comfort liner, designed to reduce rotational acceleration to the rider's head. It exceeds the ECE 22.06 Peak Rotational Acceleration standard by 76%.
- Profiled chin bar for proven impact protection.
