Our time trial helmet combines cutting-edge aerodynamics and a sleek design for ultimate speed.
After hours of wind tunnel testing and simulation with our partner Swiss Side, this helmet has been race-proven by our pro team.Extreme aerodynamics for unique performance
- AerodynamicsExceptional air penetration, beat your records
- Field of visionVery wide visor providing a 180° field of vision
- VentilationFront air intake connected to rear extractor via a deep duct
- Anatomic designTurn-ring system for a micrometric adjustment. Occipital adjustment
- Visual efficiencycomes with two visors to ensure good vision in all weather conditions
- Impact protectionIn-mould construction for maximum protection
- This helmet is personal protective equipment (PPE), so its protection will depend on the condition of your helmet. We can only accept helmets returned in new condition. If your helmet doesn't suit you, please return it with the user guide and tags.
- The RCR-X range, which stands for eXtreme raCeR, is Van Rysel's dedicated time trial range. The faster you ride, the more you have to battle air resistance as it fights your acceleration. The XCR range is at the cutting edge of research in terms of aerodynamics. All of the products have been designed in a digital simulation and then tested in a wind tunnel. We compare our products to be sure that the cyclists who place their trust in us always get the very best product we can create.
- Our RCR-X is both extremely high-performance and comfortable over long distances.Having a short helmet is much less of a disadvantage at times when your neck is relaxed, when long helmets are more susceptible to wind resistance. It is therefore the ultimate weapon for long-distance triathletes
- Size M: 55-59 cm 540 g with visor size L: 59-62 cm 540 g with visor
- Recent studies show that heat management during exercise is a key factor in performance. Located in a high-pressure zone, the air intake is optimally positioned to maintain aerodynamics. This helmet has a wide, deep duct that connects to the rear extractor, allowing heat to be evacuated very efficiently.
- We've developed this helmet's aerodynamics with our partner Swiss Side.
- The RCR-X helmet is a latest-generation helmet with a very large volume and a very short 'body'.Highly effective above 40 km/h, it will help you beat your records. Its large volume is particularly stable, even in crosswinds.Used by our team's riders in the Tour de France, it has demonstrated its full potential in very high-level races.
- Without impeccable vision, there can be no performance.The helmet comes in a cover with two visors. - A tinted visor (category 3) for timed runs in sunny weather - A transparent visor (category 1) for timed runs in cloudy weather
- Helmets don't last forever. To ensure maximum safety, we recommend replacing your helmet at least every 5 to 7 years. It is important to store it in its case, in a dry, cool place away from sunlight. Extreme temperatures will deteriorate the helmet's foam more quickly. After a significant impact, it is essential to replace your helmet, since it may no longer be effective if there are cracks inside the structure.
