Product: 2017 AGV Rossi Mugello LE Pista GP R helmet

Limited edition premium helmet now available across Australia.

Link International has announced the release of the 2017 AGV Rossi Mugello LE Pista GP R helmet, which is now available at dealerships and online retailers across Australia.

The Pista GP R, the evolution of the innovative Pista GP, offers the most protection of any helmet ever produced. It is the perfect synthesis of protection, performance and comfort – the three cornerstones in development protocols of AGV Extreme Standards.

The Pista GP R offers superior visibility and is characterised by the patented Visor Lock System (VLS). With the use of the new Biplano spoiler, aerodynamic performance is optimised and the comfort level benefits from a patented interior system and the implementation of the Integrated Ventilation System (IVS).

The background colours of the Valentino Rossi edition helmet are green, representing the turf of a soccer field, and inevitable signature yellow of the multi-time MotoGP world champion.

Rossi is depicted as a soccer player with the number 46 on the helmet, donning light blue national team jersey and a band aid on his forehead, poised in front of the goalkeeper and ready to score a goal.

The writing next to the cartoon reads: ‘Mo’ je faccio er cucchiaio’ which reveals who Rossi has dedicated this helmet to – Francesco Totti, the star soccer player from Rome who recently retired.

On the back of the helmet is another famous statement associated with Totti: ‘Un capitano… C’è solo un capitano’ which translates to ‘One captain, there is only one captain’. Another unique touch on the LE lid are the sides of the chin structure, featuring the number 46 alongside the number 69, a tribute to the great Nicky Hayden.
