White carries the forward blocks around the brow and chin bar, blue fills the flanks, and red appears in small quantities at the edges where it draws the eye without taking over. Under a gloss clear coat the block edges stay knife-sharp; a matt lacquer would soften exactly the boundaries the design depends on. Two practical consequences follow from the large white area, and both are worth having on a commuter helmet: it is the most visible helmet in the Monza family at dusk and in rain, and it runs cooler in standing traffic than either of its darker siblings because most of the shell reflects rather than absorbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThree shells, and what KPA actually is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA word on what a polymer shell does in a crash, since it differs from a composite. Fibre shells are stiff, spread load quickly across a wide area, then delaminate. A thermoplastic flexes further before failing, spreading the impact over more time rather than more area. Both approaches work — ECE and SHARP care about the head inside, not the route taken. KPA gets there by deforming, and it did so well enough here to score five out of five at two of the three tested speeds. \u003cstrong\u003eThree shells\u003c\/strong\u003e cover XS–3XL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNinety degrees, and how the chin bar locks\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo things keep a modular chin bar working for years, and both are maintenance rather than design. Grit in the pivots is the first: after a wet, salted winter ride a rinse with clean water does more than any lubricant. The second is not forcing the bar past its stop when it is stiff — that is what bends the ratchet, and what turns a fifteen-euro part into a new chin bar. The ratchet system is available separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat ECE 22.06 and the P\/J label mean\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorth a paragraph rather than a table row, because most shops leave it as one. The oblique test drops the helmet onto a slanted anvil faced with abrasive paper while instruments record how fast the head rotates, and compares that against the Brain Injury Criterion. It is the first time European regulation has limited the mechanism that does most of the damage in a real crash. The visor and every fitted accessory go through the process in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwin Visor, sun visor — and the Pinlock that is not in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe visor aperture on a modular helmet has to seal against a chin bar that moves, which is a harder sealing problem than on a full-face and the reason cheap flip-ups whistle. Here the screen carries a scratch-resistant hardcoat, UV stabilisation against yellowing, and a quick-release mechanism designed to be worked at the roadside rather than on a bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAir, the breath deflector and the elastic-band liner\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything that touches your head comes out and goes in a washing machine, and that is worth more than it sounds. A liner absorbs sweat and hair oils, and those break the foam down chemically as well as making the helmet smell. A liner washed twice a season lasts markedly longer than one that is never washed — and on this helmet the liner is a sixty-euro spare part rather than a reason to replace the whole thing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e1700 grams, no emergency release, and the rest of the honest list\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1700 grams (±50), measured mid-size without accessories. Think of it as load rather than a number: your neck is not holding a helmet up, it is stabilising a mass on a lever every time the road moves. It is the lightest flip-up in our range and it is still around two hundred grams more than a comparable full-face — the unavoidable cost of a hinge, a latch and the reinforcement they need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe other honest notes: no emergency release, no supplied Pinlock, and no published decibel figure, because none exists for this model and we will not manufacture one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen something wears out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeven visors are stocked for the Strobe II: clear, light tint, dark tint, three iridium mirrors and a rainbow. Worth planning as a pair rather than one at a time — a clear screen for winter and something tinted or mirrored for summer, swapped in a minute by the quick-release. Remember that the Pinlock is pinned to one visor and does not migrate between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLS2 FF908 Strobe II helmet — Monza White Blue Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarrying bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReflective stickers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🔵 No Pinlock® insert — the visor is prepared for one (DKS520), sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eModel\u003c\/em\u003e — LS2 FF908 Strobe II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart number\u003c\/em\u003e — 569082202\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eColour\u003c\/em\u003e — Monza White Blue Red — Monza graphic, gloss white with blue and red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eHomologation\u003c\/em\u003e — ECE 22.06, dual P\/J (protective and jet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eSafety rating\u003c\/em\u003e — SHARP 4 of 5 stars (tested August 2026, ECE 22.06); chin bar fully locked in 37 % of impacts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eHelmet type\u003c\/em\u003e — Flip-up \/ modular, chin bar raising 90° with locking system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eShell\u003c\/em\u003e — KPA (Kinetic Polymer Alloy), three shell sizes (XS–S \/ M–L \/ XL–3XL)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eWeight\u003c\/em\u003e — 1700 g (±50 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eSizes\u003c\/em\u003e — XS to 3XL (seven sizes)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eAnti-fog\u003c\/em\u003e — prepared for Pinlock® 70 MaxVision™ (DKS520) — insert NOT supplied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eVisor\u003c\/em\u003e — Twin Visor System, scratch-resistant, UV-stable, quick-release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eSun visor\u003c\/em\u003e — integrated, tinted, drop-down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eImpact liner\u003c\/em\u003e — multi-density EPS with moulded ventilation channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eRetention\u003c\/em\u003e — micrometric ratchet buckle, reinforced chin strap, chin bar lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eEmergency release\u003c\/em\u003e — not fitted on this model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eVentilation\u003c\/em\u003e — chin intake, top intake, rear exhaust port, breath deflector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eLiner\u003c\/em\u003e — 3D laser-cut, elastic-band crown, hypoallergenic, breathable, removable and washable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eIntercom\u003c\/em\u003e — prepared for the current LS2 Bluetooth system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eServiceability\u003c\/em\u003e — complete chin bar available as a spare part in every one of the twelve colourways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LS2","offers":[{"title":"XS \/ Monza – Gloss White\/Blue\/Red","offer_id":53597224108298,"sku":"569082202_XS","price":227.0,"currency_code":"BAM","in_stock":true},{"title":"S \/ Monza – Gloss White\/Blue\/Red","offer_id":53597224141066,"sku":"569082202_S","price":227.0,"currency_code":"BAM","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ Monza – Gloss White\/Blue\/Red","offer_id":53597224173834,"sku":"569082202_M","price":227.0,"currency_code":"BAM","in_stock":true},{"title":"L \/ Monza – Gloss White\/Blue\/Red","offer_id":53597224206602,"sku":"569082202_L","price":227.0,"currency_code":"BAM","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL \/ Monza – Gloss White\/Blue\/Red","offer_id":53597224239370,"sku":"569082202_XL","price":227.0,"currency_code":"BAM","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXL \/ Monza – Gloss White\/Blue\/Red","offer_id":53597224272138,"sku":"569082202_XXL","price":227.0,"currency_code":"BAM","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXXL \/ Monza – Gloss White\/Blue\/Red","offer_id":53597224304906,"sku":"569082202_XXXL","price":227.0,"currency_code":"BAM","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/LS2FF908StrobeIIMonzaWhiteBlueRed_Flip-UpCommuterHelmetECE22.06P_J.png?v=1788177224","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-ba\/products\/ls2-ff908-strobe-ii-monza-white-blue-red-helmet","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
