HJC RPHA-10 Zappy

[RidersDiscount]

There is no question that the HJC RPHA-10 is one of the best deals out there when it comes to helmets and we’ve already shown you the models sporting the replica graphics of MotoGP racers, Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies. The RPHA-10 race replicas are not the only options, however, and while already affordable in those trims, they become an even better value in some of the other graphics such as the Zappy pictured here available from Riders Discount. 

 

The shell of the RPHA-10 is an advanced composite that combines carbon fiber, fiberglass epoxy, aramid epoxy and organic fibers in a precisely aligned weave that excels in strength, energy absorption and weight savings. HJC calls this their Performance Integrated Matrix (P.I.M.) construction and it saves weight by reducing unnecessary overlap and resin build-up. The PIM shell is not only strong and light, but it is also aerodynamic and quiet thanks to extensive CAD design and wind-tunnel testing.

 

A hot helmet is an uncomfortable helmet, so HJC made sure that the RPHA-10 is able to keep your head cool and comfortable in warm weather. Ventilation comes from two large intakes on the top of the head, and one on the chin. All three are highly adjustable to allow for variable amounts of airflow depending on the conditions. These vents move a lot of air through the helmet without the higher noise levels that can come from some ventilation systems. Inside the shell, the full-removable/washable SilverCool liner helps wick away moisture and features a Gingko extract coating for a natural anti-bacterial guard.

 

All RPHA-10 helmets come with HJC’s newest HJ-20 Pinlock shield and insert for the best in fog prevention. These shields also feature an easy to use center locking mechanism that prevents the shield from accidentally popping open if you turn your head to look behind you or to the sides. 

 

The HJC RPHA-10 Zappy is shown here in the Red/White/Blue, but it is also available in a Black/White/Grey. The Zappy graphic is very sharp and features a red that fades to a slight orange tone from front to back.

 

 

 

Plenty of metallic flake in the blue.
