AGV’s Veloce-S is a high-performance helmet designed for the street and track. The shell offers superior fit and ventilation, which makes it an excellent choice for long days in the saddle.
Helmet
The AGV Veloce-S helmet is a premium sports helmet made of a mix of carbon, aramid and fiberglass. The new interior is designed to provide a stable, embracing, pressure free fit so that you can wear this helmet for hours on end without feeling like your head is being squeezed by an angry octopus.
The three shell sizes mean that you can get the perfect fit for your noggin! Be sure to order the right size if you plan on buying one of these beauties – because nothing looks worse than having an ill-fitting lid (unless it’s your head).
The helmet is available in two colors: white and black. The outer shell is made from carbon fiber, which gives it that cool stealthy look. It also has a removable visor for additional protection against the elements (and bugs).
Materials and Safety Features
The materials that make up this helmet are of the highest quality and will provide a comfortable fit. The shell is made from composite polymer, which is a mixture of carbon fiber, aramid and fiberglass. This provides strength, durability and light weight as well as protection from impact.
Another safety feature on this helmet is its EPS shock absorption system that protects your head in the event of an accident or fall. Your head will be well protected with the chin guard slider included on this helmet, which helps to prevent injury if you happen to crack your chin against your handlebars.
This helmet also has ventilation systems designed specifically for it’s use; there are five front air vents and two rear extractors that keep you cool while riding at high speeds without compromising safety features such as vision or stability at top speeds (tested extensively in wind tunnels).
Protection
The AGV Veloce-S comes with a CE certified M2010 helmet shell, meaning it meets the safety standards of the US Department of Transportation (DOT) and is effectively tested to protect against penetration, impact and fire. It also meets or exceeds the European equivalent ECE 22.05 standard for motorcycle helmets; this goes further than the DOT by requiring an additional test for lateral impacts at speeds up to 50 km/h.
In addition to its safety features, this helmet has been designed to be aerodynamic and lightweight—it weighs only 1 kilogram when empty! The shell is made out of carbon fiber combined with aramid fibers. These materials provide strength while still being light enough for comfort on longer rides across town or country roads alike.
The interior padding on this model is fully removable so you can wash it should it get dirty during your travels! It’s also anti-bacterial fabric that wicks away moisture from your skin; this helps keep you dry even if you’re riding in hot weather all day long!
Fit and Comfort
The helmet fits well and is comfortable. The padding is soft, the helmet light and easy to adjust. The inner liner consists of three individual pieces that fit together in a way that makes it easy to adjust the size while you are wearing the helmet.
The outer shell has “Morpho System” which adjusts itself to fit different head shapes with its variable thicknesses, while the inner lining is made of Sanitized fabric to reduce odor and bacteria.
The helmet is also available in a wide variety of colors and designs, so you can choose one that suits your style. Overall, this is a great helmet for riders who want something comfortable and easy to adjust.
Ventilation, Aerodynamics and Noise Levels
The helmet is designed to have cool air flow over the top of your head. The chin bar is closed, which helps pull warm air out from inside the helmet and channel it away from your head. This also makes it quieter, as there is less wind noise coming into the helmet through gaps at the front.
The chin bar can be opened for increased ventilation; however this does not improve aerodynamics or cooling. Instead of pulling warm air out from inside the helmet (as with a closed chin bar), opening up this area allows cold air from outside to enter through vents on either side of your head. The result: you get some extra airflow without sacrificing stability or comfort in any way!
The best way to keep your head cool is to wear a helmet with vents that are positioned over the top of your head. This allows air to flow through these vents and out of the back of the helmet, which helps prevent heat build-up. The more vents you have, the better this process works.
Additional Features
The AGV Veloce-S is designed with a molded oval shape, which fits comfortably and securely on the user’s head. The visor is included with a breath guard, and it can be removed to accommodate goggles or glasses. The visor also features an inner sun visor that can be installed when needed.
The AGV Veloce-S helmet is DOT and ECE certified, making it safe for road use in the United States as well as in Europe. It also includes a Pinlock anti-fog insert for fog protection during winter weather conditions, which makes this helmet perfect for year-round riding.
The AGV Veloce-S is available in three different sizes and five color options. The helmet is priced at $475, which may seem like a lot for a helmet but it does come with some nice features to justify the cost.
