“Merry Force be with you! Hurry and get your Limited Edition R2D2 Fox Helmet before it’s too late!” Those were the words from RIVA Racing‘s Instagram page introducing many to the Fox Racing V3 Star Wars R2D2 LE Helmet. Now you can let your inner Star Wars geek shine with one of only 250 of these limited edition Star Wars R2D2 helmets from Fox Racing! Each one is serial numbered, comes with a certificate of authenticity, and arrives in a special hard box wrapped in cellophane. Heck, it might just be too nice to wear…nah!
And while the special edition paint scheme is very cool, Fox Racing dedicates a huge portion of its time and efforts into developing class-leading protection. Exclusive to Fox helmets is MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System), which imitates the brain’s protective fluid. “The secret behind MIPS’ unique patent comes from the human brain. The brain is surrounded by a low-friction cushion of cerebrospinal fluid. MIPS gives the helmet its own low-friction layer between the EPS and comfort liner, to absorb much of the energy created by an angled blow to the head. The combination of the brain’s own protection and MIPS ensures maximum protection – simple and effective.”
So what else makes this helmet special (besides Fox’s MIPS), you ask? How about a shell made with multiple composite technology construction; superior fitment through three shell and four EPS sizes to choose from for a precise fit; dual density EPS liner for better protection; a Dri Lex® comfort liner; 14 intake and 4 exhaust vents for optimum airflow; and y’know ratings that exceed ECE 22.05 and DOT certifications. So yeah, it’s a world-class helmet that also looks a lot like everyone’s favorite astromech droid. Go to RIVA Racing to get yours before its gone.
