Description

Giving more than simply speed and protection, the Procen ensures you stay cool and comfortable through the intense efforts of a time trial. Proven to be fast thanks to extensive CFD testing and time on the track, the helmet utlises the Venturi effect to manage airflow through the helmet for ultimate speed. A distinct trailing edge pushes air away from the shoulders to further aid aerodynamics and management of airflow to find ultimate speed.

Large ventilation inlets at the front of the helmet help force air through the helmet, providing whole-head cooling and using the Venturi effect to optimise airflow around the head and shoulders.

The Procen utilises an innovative 2-position lens system to overcome a problem common with all visor helmets: lens fogging. In the 'start position', the lens sits around 10mm away from the helmet to ensure air can move naturally, ideal to prevent fogging while in the time trial start gate. It's also possible to ride with the lens in this position, with a clear line of sight in all directions. The visor lens is fully detachable, and will also break away from the helmet in a crash thanks to an innovative temple design.

A comfortable whole-head adjustment system makes it easy for every rider to find a secure fit, ensuring optimum protection while delivering maximum speed.

Details

EPS Liner:

PC Shell:
The outer PC Shell: is lightweight and enhances the structural integrity of the helmet.

CFD Tested
Extensive CFD testing and evaluation helped ensure the helmet is as fast as possible.

Track Tested
The helmet's design and ventilation have been put to the test on track to ensure both speed and comfort.

Molded EVA zone
The lower zone of the rear of the helmet is molded in malleable EVA to improve comfort behind the neck.

Venturi-inspired airflow
The helmet's airflow zones are inspired by the Venturi effect to reduce drag and improve all-round aerodynamics.

Distinct trailing edge
The helmet's sharp and distinct trailing edge pushes air away from the shoulders to ensure air moves in the best possible direction.

Detachable visor
The detachable visor features short temples that snap into the helmet for security.

Breakaway visor
If the visor gets pushed in towards the face, it will break away from the helmet for improved safety.

Lens start position function
The 2-position lens can sit around 10mm away from the helmet to prevent fogging at the TT start gate. It can also be pushed out mid-ride to improve airflow.

Removable lens
The lens can easily be removed mid-ride if dirt or rain drops begin to obstruct your view.

Lightweight adjustable fit system
The minimalist size adjustment system is very lightweight and gives a secure fit.
