Our experience with Limar has been with their exceptional Ultralight helmet, but they also have offerings for the dirt crowd, specifically the freeride enthusiast.
Limar has regularly won international awards such as the “IF Design Award” and the “Best Junior Helmet” award, and now brings its innovation to the MTB world with a new selection dedicated to DH, Enduro and Freeride.
FREE RIDE: HEAD SAFETY WITH COMFORT
Limar has exploited its expertise in moulding, designing and engineering to develop two helmets specifically for the bravest enduro riders, but also suitable for all mountain pros.
Positioned at a good price/quality ratio, the 949 DR (DR stands for dirt) offers high performance and great comfort. The helmet is made of a safe, double-in mould shell, with 23 air vents, an adjustable visor and an integrated/removable camera base plate on its top.
At a lower price point is the 848 DR: a minimal design, a dedicated fit system, an adjustable visor and extended rear coverage, everything an Enduro or All mountain lover needs at good value for money.
More on the all-mountain side, the 888 Superlight is a great evolution of its predecessor 885, in terms of fitting and comfort.
FREERIDE: FULL FACE SUPERLIGHT
For those who wants the best possible Gravity gear, Limar is offering model DH5 and DH1, highly ventilated and comfortable full face helmets. The first one with carbon fiber outer shell of less than 1000 grams, cooled by 11 enormous vents with no sacrifice at all in terms of comfort, performance and aerodynamics. The helmet employs the COMPOSITE FUSION™ plus technology patented by Kali Protectives.
