It hides trail dust and road film better than anything else here and sits meaningfully above black in the flat light of a northern autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFour SHARP stars — the only MT helmet that has any\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSHARP's rating measures how well a helmet spread and absorbed energy beyond the legal minimum — it is a comparative scale rather than a pass mark. The \u003cstrong\u003eECE 22.06\u003c\/strong\u003e homologation is the pass mark, and the Track SV holds both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 Tested April 2026 at 1.6 kg, in sizes XS to XXL, and classified by SHARP as a full-face helmet despite the adventure peak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the matt grey finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eValue rather than colour decides both how dirty a helmet looks and how easily it is seen, and a mid grey sits at the useful point on that scale for both at once. Dust, spatter and dried rain marks all show least here — they read as haze on black and as obvious marks on white. And a driver resolves a mid-value object against dark tarmac appreciably faster than a dark one. Over a two-week trip, where the helmet will be washed rarely if at all, that tolerance is worth more than it sounds. 🔵 Like every matt finish it is washed rather than polished, and it holds dry dust more visibly than gloss — which on gravel is the one condition where it looks worse than a shiny shell. Between washes it recovers completely; nothing about matt is permanent except polish damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDual-sport — a full-face with a peak\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe useful question before buying is what proportion of your riding is unpaved. If the answer is „gravel tracks on the way to somewhere\", this helmet is right and the peak earns its keep at low sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 If it is „whole days off-road at pace\", a lighter competition helmet with a goggle aperture will serve you better — and cost you the road manners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHIRP, ECE 22.06 — and two different weights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull \u003cstrong\u003eECE 22.06\u003c\/strong\u003e approval means the current schedule rather than the superseded 22.05: more impact points, higher test speeds, and a rotational-impact assessment the older standard did not include.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 On top of that sits the SHARP result — four stars — which measures performance beyond that minimum rather than merely confirming it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe MT-ESP retractable sun visor\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSunset on a westbound road is the condition that decides whether a sun visor was worth having, and it is precisely the condition a peak handles badly — the sun is ahead of you rather than above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 The MT-ESP shield covers exactly that case, and retracts in a second when the light drops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe HS-12 visor and the anti-fog insert you buy separately\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFogging is the adventure rider's real optical problem rather than glare, because so much of the riding happens too slowly for airflow to clear a visor — picking a line through gravel, waiting at a gate, standing on the pegs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 Without an anti-fog insert a cold morning will mist the visor at every stop. Budget roughly 25–40 € for one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eERS — the Emergency Release System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEmergency release is standard on premium helmets and rare at this price, which makes its presence on the Track SV worth pointing out — alongside the SHARP rating, it is the second piece of genuine safety specification here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 Show a riding partner how it works. They are the person most likely to need it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInterior, fit and intercom preparation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 A new helmet should feel firm but never painful. The liner beds in over the first few hours and again across the first season, so a helmet that is perfect in the shop will usually be loose by the summer's end. Start tighter than comfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSix sizes cover XS to XXL — the same range SHARP lists for the tested helmet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe micrometric closure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 A loose strap is the most common way a helmet fails to do its job, and it has nothing to do with the shell or the star rating. If the helmet can be rolled forward off your head with the strap fastened, it is either too big or too loose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe micrometric closure adjusts finely enough to fix the second problem. It cannot fix the first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it sits in MT's range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin this model the price ladder is entirely paint. The \u003cstrong\u003ePure\u003c\/strong\u003e solids at 136 € and the two graphics at 144 € share the same shell, the same visor, the same sun shield, the same ERS and the same SHARP-rated construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🔵 The cheapest Track SV protects exactly as well as the most expensive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen something wears out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHelmets are consumables with a long life rather than permanent objects. MT, like every manufacturer, recommends replacement after around five years of use regardless of condition — and immediately after any real impact, because the EPS crushes once and does not recover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween those points, everything you touch on this helmet is replaceable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMT Track SV helmet — Pure A2 (HIRP shell)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear \u003cstrong\u003eHS-12\u003c\/strong\u003e visor, fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdventure peak, fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🔵 \u003cstrong\u003eNo anti-fog insert\u003c\/strong\u003e — the visor is ready for Pinlock DKS 623 or FogOff; both are separate purchases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🔵 No intercom — the helmet has a UCS pre-installation; the system is a separate purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSize guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead circumference\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e53–54 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55–56 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e57–58 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e59–60 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e61–62 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXXL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e63–64 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eModel\u003c\/em\u003e — MT-Helmets Track SV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart number\u003c\/em\u003e — 136700PA2203\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eColour\u003c\/em\u003e — Pure A2 — Matt grey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eHomologation\u003c\/em\u003e — \u003cstrong\u003eECE 22.06\u003c\/strong\u003e — 🔴 ECE only; MT lists no DOT marking for this model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eSafety rating\u003c\/em\u003e — \u003cstrong\u003eSHARP 4 of 5 stars\u003c\/strong\u003e — tested April 2026 under ECE 22.06, measured at 1.6 kg, sizes XS–XXL, classified as full-face. \u003cstrong\u003eThe only MT helmet in the SHARP database\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eHelmet type\u003c\/em\u003e — Dual-sport \/ adventure-trail — full-face shell with an adventure peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eShell\u003c\/em\u003e — \u003cstrong\u003eHIRP\u003c\/strong\u003e (High Impact Resistant Polymer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eWeight\u003c\/em\u003e — MT quotes \u003cstrong\u003e1.5 kg\u003c\/strong\u003e; 🔴 \u003cstrong\u003eSHARP measured 1.6 kg\u003c\/strong\u003e on their tested example.
