Helmets & Protective Gear
ECE 22.06 / CPSC / DOT helmets · knee & elbow pads · riding gloves
Helmet & Gear Parameters
Every helmet is impact-tested to the standard required by your market. Shell construction, EPS density and retention system are verified per batch with test reports provided for each shipment.
The 60-second read for buyers: as an OEM line item or aftermarket range, this helmet family spans half-face, open-face and full-face shells in ABS, polycarbonate or carbon fibre, with multi-density EPS liners, scratch-resistant UV400 visors and micrometric or double D-ring retention. ECE 22.06 (EU), CPSC 1203 (US) and DOT FMVSS 218 configurations are available per market, with matching knee, elbow pad sets and riding gloves for complete kitting. Orders start at 50 units per configuration with a 15-30 day standard lead time (30-45 days for the first custom-branded run), and pre-production samples ship before mass production. The compliance package and per-order documents (cell, BMS and test reports where applicable) are compiled with the export file, and an export engineer settles fitment questions on one call — no obligation.
