Online 4S Speed Air Hybrid Riding Helmet Riding Hats & Helmets

Like every GPA helmet, the 4S was developed with maximum protection as the focus. The 4S is a technological revolution with its 4 layers which enable optimum shock absorption as well as better resistance to lateral compression.

Unparalleled dampingThe outer shell, made of absorbent polymer, absorbs the first part of the shock by deforming.The 2nd layer takes up the energy of the impact and absorbs it.The 3rd layer, made of fibreglass, ensures the rigidity of the entire helmet to avoid lateral compression.The 4th layer is the polystyrene shell which completes the deceleration of the shock by crumpling under the impact, thus protecting the cranial vault from brain injuries.An optimal ventilation systemThanks to its numerous front and side vents and its rear outlets, this helmet offers maximum ventilation.Unparalleled comfortThis new one-piece, and removable, liner is washable and can be replaced if needed. The soft and fluffy inner has been been given an antibacterial treatment.Better neck protection and increased holdThe classic chinstrap is replaced by a hybrid system, a new exclusive from GPA. A cross between the twin lock system and the traditional chinstrap, its rear part is made of thermoplastic resin and incorporated fibreglass fabric. Its nylon straps, covered with synthetic leather, fasten by means of a two-part buckle. Thanks to its rigid part at the back which extends the shell, this hybrid chinstrap guarantees more extensive protection and better support for the helmet on the head. Its more affordable price and design will win over the more conventional riders as well.
