Shark Helmets Unveil New Spartan RS With ECE22.06 Ratings

Shark Spartan range is among the most popular from the French manufacturer thanks to its versatility to accommodate sports bikes and touring riders.

While the Spartan remains a popular choice, Shark Helmets decided it’s time for an upgrade to meet the latest ECE 22.06 safety ratings.

The Spartan RS is the first Shark helmet to meet the ECE 22.06 ratings, setting a new high for the brand’s 2022 lineup.

Nonetheless, Shark retained several key elements from the previous-gen Spartan, including the carbon fibre and fibreglass shell, UV380 sun visor and Pinlock 120 MaxVision insert.

Thanks to a new VZ 300 visor, the Spartan RS now achieves an optical class 1 rating, the highest certification for reduced optical distortion.

It also features a new 4-point anchoring system taken from the flagship Race-R Pro GP helmet.

Other features include:

  • retractable sun visor
  • three air intakes and four air vents
  • removable Alveotech interior
  • removable chin curtain
  • Shark EasyFit (for riders that wears glasses)

The Shark Spartan RS is available from XS and XXL and price at EUR349.99 (RM1.6k).
