The all-black Reference Precision Eclipse riding helmet suits riders seeking simplicity and elegance.
Your Reference Precision Eclipse riding helmet in its component parts
Shell - The thicker outer shell is made from ABS. Its role is to disperse the energy from an impact over the helmet's surface. When your helmet strikes an object, the shell distributes the shock wave by dispersing it. Both light and rigid, ABS is also highly scratch-resistant.
Helmet liner - The helmet liner is made from EPS (expanded polystyrene foam) in a new ground-breaking shape to absorb the energy from impacts by dispersing it. As a result, the liner crushes on impact and becomes far denser.
Inside, the liner is partly covered in blue waffle-shaped ERT (Energy Reduction Technology) foam pads. This new technical innovation better spreads out the energy from small bumps and big impacts. It also has anti-rotational properties. If you take a hit while riding, the blue waffle-shaped pads move with your head across the helmet shell to limit the risk of head injuries.
The Reference Precision Eclipse riding helmet features an advanced aeration system with 11 apertures arranged inside the helmet and 2 air vents front and rear. This new system provides better airflow and keeps your head cool. It also has also air ducts under the visor which improve airflow inside the helmet.
Fastening system - The helmet fastener has a magnetic "Fidlock" buckle. Redesigned to be more practical when riding, the fastening system allows you to clip or unclip your helmet with one hand. The helmet fastener comes with a nylon lock ring for added safety providing the rider with added safety.
The nylon and leather harness ensures the helmet fits securely on the rider's head. It has a 3-point fastening arrangement. The Y-shaped fastening system with its widely spaced anchor points limits any movement on your head. The helmet has nylon straps.
Helmet cap
The helmet cap is made from foam pads, lycra and 2D mesh to provide a perfect fit with your riding helmet. It can be removed for regular cleaning.
The riding helmet comes with foam pads.
And for added comfort...
Elasticated straps at the back of the helmet can be easily adjusted so you can ride with your hair up without any discomfort.
The Eclipse visor
In vogue and stylish, the Eclipse visor draws from women's hat design. The wide visor has been carefully considered to protect from the sun and weather without compromising a wide field of vision. European standard EN1384-2023 requires all visors or peaks to bend when exposed to a weight. This is intended to stop them breaking and injuring riders. As a result, Antarès helmet visors are designed to be flexible. If the visor is pushed out of shape, just use your hands to regain its form.
