Ficeda sent us the following information on the latest helmet from Shark:

Just 18 months after the revolutionary Race-R Pro hit the Australian market, Shark helmets have lifted the bar once again in the high-end racing division with the introduction of the Race-R Pro Carbon.

Featuring the all new, natural, bamboo fibre liner (quieter, comfier, more hermetic) the Race-R Pro Carbon fits better than ever before, while providing the highest level of safety, stability and features that have become expected of all Shark’s products. The Race-R Pro Carbon also retains all of the technology and features that combine to make the Race-R Pro.

The introduction of the Race-R Pro Carbon also brings about a re-structure in the pricing of the entire Shark Racing Division, with the Race-R Pro
Carbon coming in at just $799.95 (Race-R Pro is now reduced to $749.95 and $799.95 for replicas).
