Motocross

Motocross helmets are specially designed for extreme off-road riding for motocross or enduro races. They have a very long chin and a large visor for protection from the sun or branches.

They are usually lighter compared to full-face or flip-up helmets to be comfortable for the rider. They are not recommended for riding in the city or on highways.

Thermoplastic

This is a plastic material mainly used in more affordable and entry-level helmets.

Thermoplastic shells, such as Polycarbonate or ABS, offer basic protection through deformation upon impact, with greater weight and lower production cost compared to composite materials.

Certification refers to the official inspection that confirms the helmet meets specific safety standards as defined by international organizations (e.g., ECE, DOT). It is an indication that the helmet has been tested and approved for its ability to protect in real collision conditions.

DOT

Safety standard applicable in the United States. Includes tests for energy absorption, shell strength, and strap retention. It is less stringent than European standards but remains internationally recognized.

ECE 22.05

Not Supported

It is not compatible with the Pinlock system, so it cannot be installed. In this case, the helmet does not have the fittings for adding the Pinlock inner visor, which means there is no special protection against fogging or misting of the visor.
