Its aerodynamic shape reduces drag and wind noise, enhancing the overall riding experience and its outer shell is constructed from a composite blend of carbon fiber and Kevlar, which not only ensures a lightweight construction but also delivers superior strength and impact resistance setting the ATR-3 apart from conventional helmets, making it a top choice for riders who prioritize safety without compromising light weight.

At the heart of this helmet’s safety features is the patented ODS (Omni-Directional Suspension) technology, which employs a series of dampers that allow the outer shell and inner liner to move independently. In the event of an impact, the ODS system disperses the force across a larger area, reducing the risk of injury. This advanced technology is particularly effective in mitigating rotational forces that can cause brain injuries in the event of collisions.

Comfort is also a critical factor when choosing a helmet, and the 6D ATR-3’s inner liner is designed to provide a snug yet comfortable fit, ensuring it stays securely in place while riding.

Despite its advanced ventilation system, the 6D ATR-3 is designed to minimize wind noise. The aerodynamic shape of the helmet, combined with the strategically placed vents, helps reduce the noise levels, allowing for a quieter and more enjoyable riding experience.

The FXR 6D ATR-3 helmet stands out for its innovative safety features, exceptional comfort, and superior performance. Its advanced materials, coupled with the patented ODS technology, make it one of the safest helmets on the market.
