HJC Y50 Kids' Motocross Helmet: Safety and Custom Fit

Motocross places specific demands on riders, even the youngest ones: light weight, effective ventilation, and a secure fit. The HJC Y50 was designed to meet these needs, featuring a lightweight, impact-resistant APC (Advanced Polycarbonate Composite) shell that provides an optimal fit.

Its visor has been specifically tested in a wind tunnel using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) to provide maximum stability and reduce drag, and features a shatterproof design engineered to withstand the frequent falls typical of motocross riding. The helmet also features the BCS (Bespoke Contour System), an adjustment system designed to provide a personalized fit and optimal comfort, particularly useful for adapting to children's head shapes.

In terms of ventilation, the ACS system distributes air through 6 inlets and 2 outlets--a generous configuration designed to effectively dissipate heat during the most intense sessions. The OEKO-TEX-certified antibacterial fabric lining, which is removable and washable, rounds out this helmet designed to keep young riders safe.
