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. Air vents The Galaxy Precision Eclipse riding helmet features a new airflow system with 11 apertures inside the helmet and 2 vents front and rear. This new system provides better airflow and keeps your head cool. It also has also air ducts under the visor to improve airflow inside the helmet. Fastening system The helmet fastening has been completely redesigned with a easy-to-use "Fidlock" magnetic fastener. This means you can clip and unclip the helmet with one hand when riding. 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. The Y-shaped, 3-point fastening system ensure the helmet sits firmly on your head. Helmet cap The helmet cap is made from foam pads, lycra and 2D mesh to adjust your riding helmet for the perfect fit. The helmet cap is removable for easy cleaning. The riding helmet comes with foam pads. And for added comfort... Elasticated straps at the rear of the helmet relieve any pressure on the back of the head so you can ride comfortably with your hair up. The Eclipse visor The Eclipse visor draws on women's hat design. The elegant, wide visor has been carefully considered to protect the rider's skin from the sun without obstructing their 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. The riding helmet comes with its Antarès protective drawstring bag.
