Just landed are a range of exceptionally light Carbon kevlar Enduro helmets (as light as 1050g) which we(www.bikegear.co.za) will be distributing
Carbon fiber is made by superheating an acrylic fiber yielding high strength to weight and high stiffness to weight properties. When engineered properly Carbon Fiber composites can achieve the strength and stiffness of metals at a significant weight savings, these two factors are key to the manufacture of a helmet.
Kevlar is made by dissolving a polymer in a solvent and extruding the fiber and then spinning. While Kevlar has properties similar to Carbon Fiber it lacks compressive strength. The combination of 50% Carbon Fiber and 50% Kevlar results in a laminate with flexural strength about three times that of Kevlar alone.
Made in Germany by Uvex, leaders in protection, it includes:
- a visor that ensures 100% UVA, UVB and UVC protection
- Anti-fog Supravison nano visor technology(a world first)
-Bayers high tech Makrolon
-Anti-allergic,removable and washable COOL MAX lining and cheek pads
Special introductory price of R5 800 Vat included
Limited stock with more arriving early May
