The new Givi demi-jet 10.4 Air 2 helmet is now on the market and technological-looking helmet gets an update with a new interior airflow system which is more efficient, and some additional styling features. The original 10.4 Air model was introduced in 2006, and the updated model continues the tradition of the good fit and innovative visor.
The 10.4 Air 2 has two external shell sizes and an anti-scratch poly-carbon visor with a 2-mm thick surface. To this, the new helmet adds a new internal lining colour and a flat cover for the exterior air intakes on the shell. Givi says that the Air helmet now has a better airflow system, with cooler air entering the helmet from the top more quickly.
A new air intake at the front, which can be closed, has been added, as have two rear air outlets. The visor gets a new look and there are new graphics for the exterior. The EPS shell comes in a double thickness but is still lightweight, and the buckle system has been improved with a micro-adjuster.
The Givi Air 2 also comes with a wide options range including jet-mask, bluetooth system and tinted visor. The Air 2 sells for about €113 - see the Givi website for more details.
Givi has done a restyling of its full-face motorcycle helmet, the Givi 40.1 model. It’s a top of the range composite fibre helmet which is now available in new colours and graphics in a new modern style.
Three air intakes are included at the front, combined with two rear extractor vents. The Givi 40.1 also has a fumé visor and Givi opening system. The internal lining is made from anti-allergenic and anti-bacterial material and can be removed. The closure is a double ring system.
The 2010 Givi 40.1 costs about 159 euros for the two mono-colour versions and for the versions with graphics the price is about 173 euros. For more details, see the Givi site.
