retro helmet

HJC (Hong Jin Crown) is ready to take on the Shoei Glamster, Arai Rapide Neo, Biltwell Lanesplitter and Bell Bullit with the new V10 retro full-face helmet.

  • HJC finally has its own retro-style full face helmet.
  • The V10 will go up against the Biltwell Lanesplitter and Arai Rapide Neo. 

The South Korean brand has been busy in the last few weeks as the company launched a range of new RPHA ranges, including the RPHA 1, RPHA 11, RPHA 71, RPHA 91 and the latest RPHA 31. 

Nevertheless, the HJC V10 has captured our attention thanks to its retro build. 

Unlike the rest of its competitors, HJC has never produced a full-face retro-style helmet, with the V90 being the closest you could get to vintage-style headgear. 

That said, the V10 marks a new direction for HJC.

The HJC V10 seems to be inspired by the Biltwell Lanesplitter, especially the boxy chin bar.

In addition, the V10 features premium components, including a fibreglass construction shell and emergency release cheek pads. More importantly, the new V10 helmet meets the UN’s new ECE 22.06 safety standard.

According to their website, the V10 is listed for EUR329.90 (RM1.5k) and is available in seven different colours ranging from White, Black, Flat Black, Nardo Grey, Deep Green, Deep Red and Depp Yellow. 

Meanwhile, the graphic option comes with a slightly higher price tag at EUR369.90 (RM1.7k). 

Bell Eliminator Stockwell sees signature retro lid gain a hot new flavour thanks to its flame-emblazoned graphics.
