Check out the Kabuto helmet as worn by La Bresse World Cup winner Greg Minnaar.
KABUTO IXA
If you’ve been wondering what helmet Santa Cruz Syndicate rider Greg Minnaar has been running this year and kind of fancied one yourself then we can tell you it’s a Kabuto IXA.
OGK, who have been making motorbike helmets for years, are the company behind Kabuto and the lids are now available through www.globalracingimports.com (which is the company set up by Greg Minnaar and Martin Whiteley)
The helmet has plenty of vents and the chin guard has been designed to allow maximum airflow to keep you cool. The level of protection seems high too and the only point that we can pick up on is that the sizing is a bit on the small side.
