For a long time, the unique painted design of AGV helmets, from the Rossi’s painting with obvious personal characteristics to the various paint schemes today, has been one of the incentives for many riders to buy them.
Painting is not just about painting, there are Easter eggs hidden inside
Taking the protagonist of this article, “PISTA GP RR Performance”, as an example, what do the numbers on the paint mean? Let the editor analyze them one by one for you!
- 190-degree wide field of view
- 85 degree vertical viewing angle
- 5mm lens thickness
- 971mm² ventilation area
- 1.9% reduction in CX (air resistance)
- 56% reduction in Z-lift (lift)
- Maximize air flow
- HIC (Head Injury Criteria) Less than 51% of the standard value
- The G value (maximum impact value) transmitted to the head is 36% less than the standard
- Bric ( brain injury index ) of oblique impact is less than 35% of the standard value
Straight-line impact test, with 18 impact points in total.
Hit the cap at a height of 1.84 meters and a speed of 6m/s. The maximum impact value must be <180g and HIC <1,300
Hit the cap at a height of 3.43 meters and a speed of 8.2m/s. The maximum impact value must be <275g and HIC <2,880
Oblique impact test
The object is dropped freely at a speed of 6 m/s and hits a 45-degree plane. The test is performed at five different angles.
BrIC (brain injury index) < 0.78
From the above, we can see that PISTA GP RR – Performance has not only passed the stringent European standard ECE22.06 and FIM certification, but its streamlined cap design also keeps the head stable at high speeds. Combined with a wide field of view and ventilation, you can have no worries when competing fiercely on the track. It is a top-level track cap that satisfies any passionate rider.
