GETTING THE FUNDAMENTALS RIGHT

First and foremost, the MK1S behaves and performs like any exceptional motorcycle helmet should. ECE 22.05 certification, lightweight, compact, aerodynamic, a stunning carbon finish, it's got all the characteristics you look for in a high end helmet.

At Forcite, smart is no substitute for safety.

Getting The Fundamentals Right Square Image

UNIQUE ANTI-SHOCK CONSTRUCTION

The chin section of your helmet is the first point of impact in up to 35%* of collisions.

100% of the electronics required to power your MK1S are contained within the ultra compact, patented chin mounted module. Not only does this allow us to achieve sleek and conventional proportions, it also ensures that there is no compromise to the shell's all important EPS layer.

In fact, our unique electronic integration method has enabled us to create an anti-shock feature, resulting in superior energy dispersion in the event of an impact.
