The helmet’s design and features cater to the specific demands of each of these disciplines, making it the perfect all-around helmet for racers who participate in various types of competitive events.
• Classic Bandit Flagship Design: The Super Bandit draws upon the timeless and iconic Bandit helmet design—a favorite among racers for decades. Combining both style and function, the classic look has been enhanced with modern engineering to improve aerodynamics and overall helmet performance. Aerodynamic improvements through design innovations reduce drag and enhance stability, making the Super Bandit a top performer at high speeds, whether you’re on the track or at the drag strip.
• Head and Neck Restraint (HANS) System Compatibility: Safety is paramount, and the Super Bandit is built with compatibility for advanced head and neck restraint (HANS) systems. This system is essential for minimizing the risk of neck and spine injuries during high-impact accidents. The helmet’s design includes mounting points for HANS posts, though they are sold separately. This feature ensures that you can integrate this vital safety gear with ease.
• New Visor Pivot System: The Super Bandit comes with an upgraded visor pivot system, which makes visor changes and adjustments smoother than ever before. The new system allows for easier manipulation of the visor, reducing friction and ensuring that you can quickly open or close it when necessary, even with gloves on. The design ensures optimal seal performance and prevents the visor from shifting unexpectedly during use.
• Newly Designed Visor Latch: The Super Bandit features a newly designed visor latch that makes opening and closing the visor a breeze. With improved ergonomics, this latch is easy to operate, allowing you to focus on your race without worrying about visor functionality. The latch securely holds the visor in place while also allowing for quick adjustments when needed.
• 3mm Clear Visor Included: The helmet is supplied with a 3mm clear visor to provide exceptional visibility on the track. The visor is made from durable, impact-resistant material, ensuring that it holds up against the rigors of racing while offering maximum optical clarity. The clear visor protects your eyes from dust, debris, and environmental elements, helping to maintain your focus and reaction time while racing.
• Impact-Absorbing and Fire-Retardant EPS Liner: Inside the Super Bandit is a one-piece EPS liner (Expanded Polystyrene), designed to provide outstanding impact absorption in the event of a collision. The liner is also fire retardant, offering an additional layer of protection in case of a fire hazard. This feature ensures that the helmet not only protects your head from blunt force trauma but also reduces the risks associated with fires during racing accidents.
• Comfort and Convenience: The Super Bandit is designed with the driver’s comfort in mind. It comes with a drawstring helmet bag, which provides protection for the helmet when not in use, preventing scratches, dirt, and other damage. The bag is a convenient way to store your helmet while keeping it in pristine condition for your next race.
