The 100% Altis helmet is an open-face trail lid that comes loaded with nifty features. The most prominent being the unique Smartshock system, which sees the helmet’s liner suspended from the main shell by 11 blue elastomers. These little rubberised dampers not only aid with shock absorption, they also allow the helmet to rotate slightly around the rider’s skull during an angular impact.
The Altis is then built around a high-density EPS foam core, with an external polycarbonate shell that wraps around the underside of the helmet rim for maximum durability. There are 14 vents, and the multi-point adjustable visor is designed to be goggle-compatible. 100% offers the Altis in three sizes, with each featuring an adjustable ratchet for dialling in the fit, and strap splitters that ensure the main straps don’t rub up against your ears.
