## Overview
- **Product**: V2
- **Brand**: N/A
- **Category**: Helmet
- **Summary**: MX-Helm der Mittelklasse mit MIPS Gehirnschutzsystem und Fiberglas-Schale. Der V2 ist von Fox Racing als hochintegres Helm-Schutzsystem konstruiert und nutzt eine Strukturschale aus Glasfaser-Verbundschale (Fiberglass). Dieser Schichtaufbau ermöglicht eine progressive Dissipation kinetischer Aufprallenergie bei Stoßverzögerungen, verteilt lokale Belastungsspitzen gleichmäßig über die äußeren Lamellenschichten und minimiert die Verformungsübertragung in den mehrteiligen EPS-Dämpfungskern. Zertifiziert nach DOT, ECE ... Weiterlesen

## Helmetsan Verdict
V2 — A purpose-built motocross weapon optimized for massive aerobic cooling, goggle stabilization, and roost deflection on intense dirt sessions.

### Verified Advantages
- Extra-wide eyeport with molded non-slip goggle strap stabilization channels
- Well-balanced 1464g center of gravity reduces rider fatigue on long highway stretches
- High-Performance Fiberglass Composite provides structural rigidity superior to standard polymers
- Dual DOT & ECE 22.05 certified for verified road and highway safety
