Who’s buying one of these helmets (on sale next month)?

I’m interested Alpinestars is getting into the helmet business, albeit I bet the first product’s pricey.

They’ve been making MX helmets for years, they are good quality in my experience.

I take it that's what Jorge Martin is wearing? A replica paint job will cost a bomb I guess.

Suspect it's being pitched at those thatbwould be in the market for a AGV Pista or Bell RaceStar in CF, not seeing anything really groundbreaking in it ....

Looks nice, I'll see what the price is for my next one, though it'll be a while as I have a new Shoei XS-PR Pro at the moment.

Who actually make these for them? I assume, not themselves?

Looks cool, just struggling to see what would make you buy it over something from the top brands that have been doing it for years.

That launch 'colourway' is doing it no favours at all.

I don’t know but it wouldn’t surprise me for the ‘limited edition’ launch version to be 1k euros or pounds.

After that is got be competitive with the rx7 and x spirit I’d have thought.

Like any lid fitment is the most important. Bet people will spend lots on a lid they have not tried. nuts
