HJC RPHA 70 ST Isle of Man HelmetThe HJC RPHA-70 ST Isle of Man helmet is here at last. Like the other HJC RPHA-70 ST helmets, the Isle of Man is built with the RPHA Premium Integrated Matrix that makes it strong, light and safe, with an ECE and DOT safety rating. HJC RPHA-70 ST helmets also have the added internal sun shade and increased ventilation control making the Isle of Man a comfortable, functional and safe helmet.
The HJC RPHA-70 ST Isle of Man helmet takes the RPHA-11 Pro race technology and adds an HJ-L1 integrated and changeable sun visor. You might think that the new sun shade and hi-flow venting add weight to the HJC Isle of Man helmet compared to the RPHA-11 Pro series, but it only adds a .17th of a pound (XL to 2XL comparison). That means the RPHA-70 ST Isle of Man helmet with the sun shade only has the weight increase of about 3 pennies! Another important note about the HJC Isle of Man helmet is that it is both ECE and DOT certified. You have to hand it to HJC helmets because when some helmet manufacturers are satisfied with just the standard in-house, non-verified, D.O.T rating for their customers, HJC has the riders safety in mind, providing the rider with the superior 2nd party ECE rating, as well as an economical price. The HJC RPHA-70 ST Isle of Man helmet is definitely worth the review, because it checks all the boxes for safety, looks, functionality, and price.
The Isle of Man HJC RPHA-70 ST is part of the HJC premier helmet line. The RPHA series is designed for high performance with HJC's Premium Integrated Matrix (P.I.M) construction. The P.I.M. construction is a woven blend of Carbon fiber, Fiberglass epoxy, Aramid epoxy, and Organic fibers that is incredibly strong and light. The Isle of Man helmet P.I.M materials are hand-laid by RPHA certified technicians, which virtually eliminates resin buildup that is typically found in automated production.
Most riders have had a helmet that feels like a kite, but the RPHA-70 ST series like the Isle of Man helmet, was CAD designed for rapid proto type which allowed for extensive wind tunnel testing. The result is the HJC IOM helmet is optimized for air flow around the helmet in all riding positions, that means no more air grabs when you are looking to the left or right. HJC designed the RPAH-70 ST to give the rider a smooth, quiet and well vented riding experience.
Special considerations have been made for the Isle of Man helmet interior. The redesigned plush pads and self-cooling properties reduce pressure points and make it a helmet that is comfortable all day long. The antibacterial Polygiene infused silver chloride pads are completely removable, washable and replaceable, keeping your IOM HJC helmet nice and fresh. The HJC Isle of Man helmet also has recessed speaker pockets with removable ear pocket pads, recessed wiring raceways, plus RPHA-70 ST cheek pads are interchangeable in all sizes.
Safety was also a design goal and why HJC did not settle for the standard D.O.T. rating, but also obtained the privately tested ECE rating. This is a huge step up for most helmets that have interior sun shades and only a DOT safety rating.
The HJC designers are very proud and confident of their RPHA-70 ST Isle of Man helmet, so they topped off the design with a 5 year limited warranty.
HJC helmets like the RPHA-70 ST IOM helmet push the envelope on comfort, design, safety, graphics and warranty. It is not hard to see why HJC helmets are #1 in the world.
