Designed for off-road racing enthusiasts, the Alpinestars SM7 Helmet offers a perfect blend of lightweight comfort and high-performance protection. Its aerodynamic composite shell minimizes air resistance while providing exceptional impact absorption, thanks to its streamlined profile and curvature that reduce friction during collisions. The shell incorporates PLASMA technology at the lower edge to dissipate energy effectively in the collarbone region, enhancing rider safety during intense activities. The helmet’s design features a smooth, load-free exterior free of external channels, ensuring maximum structural integrity and durability in demanding environments.
Equipped with 20 individual intake and exhaust ports—13 intakes and 7 exhausts—this helmet delivers optimal airflow for superior ventilation, keeping riders cool and focused during prolonged off-road sessions. The fit is customizable through exchangeable cheek pads available in various thicknesses, allowing a tailored fit across all sizes. A cutaway section on the left side of the EPS foam makes it compatible with communication systems, with earphone recesses on both sides for speakers, facilitating seamless integration with intercom devices. The removable and washable linings, treated with antimicrobial fabrics, promote hygiene and comfort, while the crown and neck pads are elastically connected to better manage oblique impacts.
The helmet features an adjustable top pad with the A-head system for height customization, ensuring a secure fit. Cheek pads are made from 3D foam with an emergency extraction system (ERS) and channels for hydration tubes, supporting rider safety and hydration needs. The chin strap uses a 25 mm nylon strap with stainless steel DD rings and removable covers for easy cleaning. Integrated channels on both sides of the helmet accommodate hydration systems, enhancing convenience during demanding rides. The visor detaching system is engineered to release upon impact exceeding 15 Joules, preventing injury by automatically detaching in case of severe impacts. Additionally, the helmet’s shell is reinforced with Alpinestars PLASMA technology integrated into the side pads, providing high-performance shock absorption and reducing injury risk in critical impact zones, especially around the collarbone area. This helmet is an ideal choice for off-road racing, combining advanced safety features, superior ventilation, and customizable fit for serious riders seeking optimal protection and comfort.
