A leading European manufacturer of motorcycle helmets, Shark has focused the design of the Race-R Pro Carbon to deliver superior aerodynamics in a safe, lightweight, comfortable package – the perfect performance trifecta. To do this, the Race-R Pro Carbon is made from a super-light, carbon-aramid shell weighing only 1250g.

The helmet is also one of the first helmets developed relying on CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) technology which involves tested simulations of aerodynamic performance. As a result, the ventilation and air penetration at high-speed is one of the best aspects of this helmet’s performance – but not the only one.

Shark’s unique safety concept in this helmet combines evolutions in crumple zone technology, multiple densities of EPS in separate pieces of the inner shell and long strand fibre technology to create a helmet that not only meets world helmet standards, but far exceeds them, especially in HIC testing measuring G-forces by the brain in a crash.

Additionally, the no distortion Class 1 optically correct visor delivers perfect vision of the tarmac ahead in any situation thanks to a variable thickness visor that ranges from 2.8 to 4.2mm. Also, a special neck pad and fabric is shaped to reduce wind noise inside the shell.
