New enduro head protectors from Alpina

The helmet and eyewear specialist Alpina is launching "Carapax", an enduro-specific helmet line. This includes one adult and two children's models, which are designed to offer the best protection. In addition to the Carapax line, the downhill helmet "Fullface" has been added, which offers safety at an affordable price.

Hard on the outside, soft on the inside: this is how the "Carapax" enduro helmet is described. With its advantages copied from the tortoise shell, its shell is designed to offer even better all-round protection than conventional cross-country helmets thanks to its compact shape, which extends far down on all sides. Thanks to its relatively closed shape and large shield, it not only protects against sunlight, but also against branches in thickets. The Carapax comes at the recommended retail price of 169.00 francs.

Fullface
Alpina calls the "Fullface" downhill helmet the most affordable life insurance of the year. Downhill riders demand safety above all else from their head protection. The "Fullface" meets these requirements with flying colors and also looks really dynamic, which is also a very important criterion. Because you have to look good even when you're going fast. Alpina recommends combining it with the matching "Panoma Magnetic D" goggle. The "Fullface" in titanium-red is available for a record-breaking 149.00 francs.

Carapax Junior and Carapax Junior Flash
The little ones' heads are also taken care of. Alpina has developed the Carapax Junior and the Carapax Junior Flash with rear light from the large Carapax so that the little ones can also have fun downhill and look cool at the same time. Both offer great protection for little mountain bikers thanks to their Inmold construction, ceramic shell, Edge Protect edge protection and Run System Classic twist lock for perfect adjustment. The Carapax Junior costs 89.90 and its Flash version with LED rear light 99.00 francs.

Eye-5
Alpina also provides a remedy for watery eyes. To be effective in sports such as road cycling, cross-country biking or triathlon, sports glasses need to be extremely streamlined. Alpina's "Eye-5" fits extra snugly and defies the wind with its gentle curves. In addition, they must never fog up, even under extreme physical and climatic conditions. This is why the "Eye-5" has a Fogstop coating on the inside of the lenses. Its frame, which is open at the sides, ensures optimum air flow. But their fit is also important. Thanks to Coldflex and 2-component mix, the "Eye-5" can be easily adjusted to the shape of the head and the nose bridge to the shape of the nose. This means that they always stay where they belong, even at high speeds. The "Eye-5" is available for 119.00 francs.
