Alpinestars Supertech R10 Motorcycle Helmet – Lightweight Race Protection

The Supertech R10 Element Helmet is engineered for riders who demand uncompromising safety and aerodynamic precision on both track and open road. Its advanced composite shell combines 3K high-density carbon fiber, uni-directional carbon layers, aramid fiber, and fiberglass—bonded with pre-preg epoxy resin—to create a lightweight yet ultra-durable structure that efficiently disperses impact energy while minimizing shell deflection during collisions. This multi-layered design ensures maximum protection without sacrificing speed or comfort.

Inside, an eight-piece EPS liner uses six distinct foam densities strategically placed to absorb shocks across critical zones. The A-Head Fitment System allows riders to customize helmet tilt and depth for a snug fit that enhances both comfort and impact performance. The inner EPS surface is polished smooth and coated to reduce friction between the liner and head, minimizing rotational forces during oblique impacts—a key innovation for reducing concussion risks during high-speed spills.

Aerodynamics are optimized through CFD simulations and wind tunnel testing, featuring interchangeable spoilers (standard or race-length) with impact-dissipating elastic joints. Winglets on the sides stabilize airflow at high speeds, while visor turbulators cut down wind noise. Eleven ventilation ports—including front chin intakes and rear exhausts—create a cooling airflow channel that prevents fogging on shields and evacuates heat from the forehead. The shield itself boasts a 220° lateral field of view, anti-scratch/anti-fog coating, Pinlock® compatibility, and a secure metal locking lever to prevent detachment during crashes.

Removable antimicrobial linings ensure hygiene on long rides, while cheek pads feature emergency-release channels for medical access post-accident. The raised chin bar profile safeguards collarbones in falls, completing this helmet’s blend of cutting-edge tech and rider-centric design—ideal for professional racers or enthusiasts prioritizing both speed and safety on demanding tracks or highways.

Key Advantages vs Competitors:
– Multi-Layer Composite Shell: Superior energy dispersion vs single-material designs
– Low-Friction EPS Liner: Reduces rotational injury risk compared to standard liners
– Interchangeable Aerodynamic Spoilers: Adjustable performance for track vs street use
– Quick-Release Shield System: Faster swaps than traditional bolt-based mechanisms
