Caberg Hyper X Helmet



Caberg is an English motorcycle helmet manufacturer attempting to make waves in the lucrative, but crowded US market. The company comes to the US with a new design, the Hyper X helmet. It features a clear visor that virtually wraps around the entire helmet.

The Caberg Hyper X looks like something you will see in a Sci Fi movie, or to be specific it looks like something from the prop shop of Ridley Scotts Alien prequel "Prometheus".

The Caberg Hyper X is a unique convertible helmet in that the chin section is removable which transforms it into an open face helmet. It's Bluetooth ready with seating pads for glasses or sunglass.

Speaking of sun, there is also a retractable sun visor that is operated by a single button placed atop the helmet. This helmet can be operated with one hand and with gloves one. The Caberg Hyper X also features a fully removable and washable inner liner. There is also a second large, textured button atop the helmet that opens and closes the vents for air circulation.
