DescriptionThe whole story▼
The KYT R2R in the Parsec Matte Grey / Red colourway is a study in purposeful design — a subdued, race-inspired matte grey shell punctuated by sharp red Parsec graphics that give this helmet a character entirely its own. Built on KYT's Racing Road DNA, the R2R bridges the gap between track pedigree and everyday rideability without compromise.
Key Features
- ADT thermoplastic shell offered in two shell sizes for a precise, proportionate fit across the size range
- ECE 22.06 certified — meets the latest European safety standard for road use
- Scratch-resistant visor with UV380 protection, central locking mechanism and tool-free removal
- Integrated drop-down sun visor operated by a side-mounted slider
- Pinlock MaxVision 70 insert included as standard — near-elimination of visor misting
- Hydrocool interior lining: moisture-wicking, breathable, removable and machine-washable
- Micrometric quick-release buckle — effortless to operate even with gloves on
Shell and Safety
The R2R's outer shell is formed from ADT thermoplastic, a material chosen for its strong impact resistance and the manageable all-day weight it delivers. Two shell sizes across the XS-to-XXL range mean the helmet is never visually oversized on smaller heads, and the structure always sits correctly in relation to the EPS liner. ECE 22.06 certification confirms the R2R has passed the most current European homologation cycle.
Vision System
A wide field of view is guaranteed by the R2R's large main visor, which is treated to resist scratching and blocks UV radiation up to 380 nm. The central locking mechanism holds it firmly at speed, and swapping to a tinted or photochromic alternative requires no tools whatsoever. The integrated sun visor drops in smoothly via a side-mounted lever, handling bright sun or low-angle light without the rider needing to stop. Every R2R ships with a Pinlock MaxVision 70 anti-fog insert already in the box.
Interior Comfort
Inside, the Hydrocool lining actively draws heat and moisture away from the skin, keeping the environment around the rider's head noticeably fresher than a standard textile liner. The cheek pads are shaped to accommodate glasses arms without pressure points, and cavities are pre-cut to accept intercom speaker pods. The entire lining lifts out for washing. An emergency quick-release system on the cheek pads assists first responders in removing the helmet safely after an incident.
Ventilation
Two large intake vents at the chin and forehead feed air into internal channels that route it across the EPS before exhausting through spoiler-integrated outlets at the rear. The result is a continuous airflow circuit that reduces heat build-up and visor fogging on warm days — a genuine benefit on commutes and extended touring alike.
Closure
The micrometric quick-release buckle is reinforced for longevity and micro-adjustable for a secure, repeatable fit. Its oversized lever makes single-handed operation straightforward even in thick gloves.
