6. Fly 2017 Kinetic Pro Helmet (Rockstar), $99.99
FLY Racing claims that its Kinetic Pro Helmet packs such tremendous attention to detail into its design and features to create the best helmet in its class, starting with its shell, which is called Poly-alloy. It’s a combination of high-strength polyester materials that offer durability and light weight. A dual-density EPS liner features two layers of EPS (Expanded Polystyrene)–one softer, one slightly harder–to provide more progressive impact absorption. The interior and cheek pads are easily removable for cleaning. The Kinetic Pro’s 10 vents are aligned with the EPS liner to flow air into the helmet at high volume, while large exhaust vents expel the incoming air to keep the wearer comfortable. The helmet’s high-flow mouth guard vent also aids in the cooling effect. The Kinetic Pro is designed to meet or exceed both ECE and DOT safety standards.
