It’s the same lid that Ben Spies wears in MotoGP, and comes in three shell sizes, centrally locking, tinted, anti-rain visor, and is claimed to weigh no more than 1250g.

There’s an anti-bacterial, wicking liner that’s removable, and the wide visor aperture is said to provide good visibility.

The R-PHA 10 comes in sizes XS-XXL (54-64cm) and costs £229.99 in plain black, £249.99 in graphics and £319.99 for the Ben Spies replica.
