The Belvedere Helmet by Les Ateliers Ruby

Posted: 12 Jul 2012 07:06 PM PDT



Another luxury helmet design from Les Ateliers Ruby, the "Belvedere®" helmet is based on the original Ruby® helmet: the "Pavillon®", however the new addition to the Ruby motorcycle helmet range has the added advantage of an articulated visor that covers the riders entire face; it acts as a pivoting windscreen.

While the "Pavillon®" is a contemporary classic design, and is based on the classic, "retro", even historic forms. The Belvedere becomes a completely different; the simple addition of the visor and the two aluminium visor pivots takes the Ruby® helmet in to a retro-futuristic world, the helmet mimics the 'Robot' like characteristics of cartoon characters in Japan.

Every "Belvedere®" comes with 3 separate visors: one transparent, one smoke and one racing dark. It takes just a few seconds to change the visor: Simply unscrew the aluminum plates that lock the visor in place. The articulation system allows you to open the visor in three positions, plus an extra notch to hold it firm at high speed.
