ASTM F1952
ASTM's F1952 Downhill Mountain Bicycle Racing helmet standard is significantly more stringent than traditional bicycle helmet standards and is the only standardised test for the safety of the chinbar. The Vanguard Core exceeds by 40% the ASTM deflection limits. An ASTM certified helmet needs much more coverage and is tested at higher impact levels.
CHIN GUARD
With the chin guard, the Vanguard aims for breathability and safety – and over-delivers on both. Hot air easily escapes via the central vent, helping you to breathe easy on even the steepest climbs. The removable mud grill clips easily onto the chin guard, protecting you from splashes on the sloppier days.
