AGV GP-Tech 5 Continents Rossi Helmet GP-Tech, the top of the AGV helmet line, was conceived, designed, and developed with the one precise objective of being the benchmark for helmets primarily destined to racing use. Made on the basis of the best of AGV racing experience, the GP-Tech combines safety, ventilation, and perfect comfort with an extremely innovative and aerodynamic design. GP-Techs design is the most innovative in the market today, and its assertively modern lines clearly distinguish it from its competitors. Aesthetics is not merely an end in itself, however the slender and streamlined chin guard, the lines at the sides, the top air vents and the back tail all make the helmet extremely aerodynamic, ensure excellent ventilation, and guarantee perfect safety performance in case of impact. 2-piece dual-density carbon Kevlar construction Ventilated by the IVS (Integrated Ventilation System) which features channels hollowed directly into the shell of the helmet Features a fully removable and washable Cool Max liner Comes with an anti-fog and anti-scratch polycarbonate clear Racer-X visor with tear-off system Replace the shield within seconds without the use of tools Double D-ring chin strap Clear shield included with helmet, dark smoke shield sold separately Comes in 3 Shell Sizes (XXS, XS, S, M),(L, XL),(XXL, XXXL) DOT and ECE-2205 certified

Now everyone on here said the graphics of the helmet looked better in person. I was leaning towards the Winter Test but with the price of the Five Continents I just couldn't pass it up, and I'm glad I didn't. The colors on the helmet are vibrant beyond belief. The detail is second to none. I was thoroughly impressed with my first ride as well. The helmet was very stable at speed and did not move or increase drag during head checks to neighboring lanes. My only regret is not buying a GP Tech sooner. A silly benefit with the GP Tech is my last helmet, Shoei X-11, would leave three rows of lines in my hair when I would take my helmet off. The padding on the GP Tech however is so nice there are no lines in my head any more, which my wife appreciates . Ride Safe!

The helmet is completed by the concealable visors in different tints that let the helmet be adapted to the needs and style of each and every rider and make his or her look even more decisive and rebellious.
