Frequently asked questions

Are motocross helmets suitable for all types of off-road riding?
Motocross helmets are designed for the specific demands of motocross racing, offering superior ventilation, lightweight construction, and enhanced visibility. While they provide excellent protection for aggressive off-road riding, they may lack certain features needed for other types of off-road activities like trail riding or enduro.
Why are motocross helmets different?
Motocross helmets prioritise factors like airflow, weight reduction, and wide peripheral vision to cater to the high-speed, dynamic nature of motocross racing. They often feature elongated chin bars for added protection during jumps and aggressive manoeuvres, distinguishing them from other types of off-road helmets.
Are MTB and motocross helmets the same?
While both serve the purpose of protecting the head during off-road activities, MTB (mountain biking) helmets and motocross helmets differ significantly in design and construction. MTB helmets tend to be lighter, more ventilated and may lack the same level of impact protection and durability as motocross helmets.
