Shell

The thicker outer shell is made from ABS. Its role is to disperse the energy from an impact over the helmet's surface. When your helmet strikes an object, the shell distributes the shock wave by dispersing it. Both light and rigid, ABS is also highly scratch-resistant. 

Helmet liner

The helmet liner is made from EPS (expanded polystyrene foam) in a new ground-breaking shape to absorb the energy from impacts by dispersing it. As a result, the liner crushes on impact and becomes far denser. 

Inside, the liner is partly covered in blue waffle-shaped ERT (Energy Reduction Technology) foam pads. This new technical innovation better spreads out the energy from small bumps and big impacts. It also has anti-rotational properties. If you take a hit while riding, the blue waffle-shaped pads move with your head across the helmet shell to limit the risk of head injuries.

Air vents 

The Galaxy Precision riding helmet features a new airflow system with 11 apertures inside the helmet and 2 vents front and rear. This new system provides better airflow and keeps your head cool. It also has also air ducts under the visor to improve airflow inside the helmet. 

Fastening system

The helmet fastening has been completely redesigned with a easy-to-use "Fidlock" magnetic fastener. This means that the helmet can be clipped and unclipped using one hand. The helmet fastener comes with a nylon lock ring for added safety.

The nylon and leather harness ensures the helmet fits securely on the rider's head. 3 widely spaced anchor points stop the helmet moving on the rider's head when in the saddle.

Helmet cap

The helmet cap is made from foam pads, lycra and 2D mesh to adjust your riding helmet for the perfect fit. 
It can be removed for regular cleaning.

Any added extras?

Elasticated straps at the rear of the helmet relieve any pressure on the back of the head so you can ride with your hair up. 

Standard visor

European standard EN1384-2023 requires all visors or peaks to bend when exposed to a weight. This is intended to stop them breaking and injuring riders. As a result, Antarès helmet visors are designed to be flexible. If they become deformed, they can be reshaped by hand to return to their original shape. 

Even if the helmet has not suffered any impacts, we strongly advise changing it every 5 years.
