Designed specifically for off-road racing enthusiasts, the Alpinestars SM7 helmet combines lightweight comfort with advanced impact protection. Its aerodynamic composite shell features a streamlined profile that reduces friction during impacts, promoting efficient energy deflection to safeguard the rider's head, neck, and spinal column. The shell's curvature ensures smooth impact transfer and minimizes load points, while the inclusion of PLASMA technology at the lower shell edge offers enhanced energy dissipation during collisions, especially in the collarbone area. This integration significantly reduces injury risk and enhances overall safety during extreme off-road activities.
The SM7 is highly ventilated, equipped with 20 individual intake and exhaust ports—13 intakes and 7 exhausts—ensuring maximum airflow and rider comfort even during intense racing sessions. The helmet's fit can be customized further with Alpinestars replacement cheek pads, which are available in various thicknesses and are interchangeable across all shell sizes. A cutaway section on the left side of the EPS allows seamless integration of communication systems, with earphone recesses on both sides for speakers, making it ideal for racers who rely on radio communication. The interior linings are removable and washable, treated with antimicrobial fabrics to maintain hygiene and freshness.
Additional features include a crown pad and neck pad elastically connected for better impact management, with the top pad being height-adjustable via the A-head system for a personalized fit. The cheek pads utilize 3D foam with an emergency extraction system for quick removal in emergencies and include a channel for hydration tube installation. The chin strap is constructed with a 25mm nylon strap, stainless steel DD rings, and removable covers for easy cleaning. Integrated channels accommodate hydration systems, ensuring riders stay hydrated during demanding rides. The visor features a detaching system designed to release upon impact exceeding 15 Joules, providing reliable protection regardless of impact direction. Overall, the Alpinestars SM7 helmet offers a perfect blend of aerodynamics, ventilation, safety, and comfort, making it a top choice for serious off-road racers seeking high-performance gear.
