Leatt have released info on their hotly anticipated 7.5 Helmet from their NEW 2021 Range. Leatt’s devotion to rider protection, extensive testing and development make their products some of the most trusted and popular worldwide.

Check out our thoughts HERE on the Leatt 9.5 Carbon helmet, which this helmet shares its tech with.

Features

The 7.5 Helmet is constructed from a robust Injected Polymer Compound shell, offering exceptional protection at a mid-level price point. The Helmet is named 7.5 Helmet kit, because it comes with a FREE pair of Leatt Bulletproof Velocity Goggles! That’s really hard to go past.

Protection

The New 7.5 is certified and tested to DOT and ECE 22.05, and also exceeds the new 2021 ECE 22.06 Helmet standard! As with all Leatt helmets, the 7.5 features Leatt’s revolutionary head and brain injury reduction technology, namely 360°Turbine Technology, which helps to reduce peak brain acceleration by up to 30% at impact speeds associated with concussion and peak brain rotational acceleration by up to 40%.

The 7.5 also features 4 densities of Impact foam for optimal protection across all areas, and has 3 shell sizes as well as a visor that breaks away and emergency cheek pad removal. Simply put, the 7.5 Helmet protects your head and brain from impact forces that occur during a crash.

Comfort

This helmet also features large ventilation channels that keep your head exceptionally cool even at lower speeds, something Leatt helmets are renowned for. The inner liner is also breathable and made of a moisture-wicking fabric to keep your head cool and dry when the ride gets hot and sweaty. The liner’s fabric is also anti-odor and washable so you can keep it fresh and odor-free.

It also features a hydration side port with an optional hands-free kit, so you can stay hydrated on the go! More importantly, weighing in at only 1295 +/- 50grams (2.85lbs), this is a super lightweight helmet – so you can be guaranteed that your head won’t feel weighed down during the longer days or even when covered in mud!

So, if you’re looking for a lightweight helmet that offers exceptional head and brain protection, ventilation, hygiene, freshness, a hydration port, multiple sizes AND a FREE pair of popular Bulletproof Velocity Goggles – look no further than the 7.5 Helmet Kit and you will not be disappointed!

And at only $429, including the free velocity Goggles, it’s a hell of a lot of bang for buck. Available now at www.bits4bikes.co.nz.
