The new, and light, LS2 Vector II Carbon helmet has just become available to buy in 2023, and with prices starting from £259.99 it’s an affordable way to enjoy modern safety and aerodynamics.
Using 100% high-grade wide weave carbon fibre, you get a weight of around 1350g, compared to approximately 1500g for the fibreglass composite Vector II range launched in 2022. And it’s actually £10 cheaper than the carbon version from the original Vector line-up, which is quite surprising.
Certified to the latest ECE 22.06 safety standards, it’s designed for stability at speed, which should reduce neck ache combined with the light weight . And the long-oval shell is manufactured in six sizes, to help reduce unnecessary drag and give you the best fit.

New LS2 Advant X Carbon Flip-Front Helmet For 2023
Want a modular motorcycle helmet with a bit more technology and less weight? Then check out the new LS2 Advant X Carbon flip-front which has launched for 2023.
The Advant range launched in 2022 with a standard model to replace the outgoing Valiant, and expanded with the X version. But now you can not only get a 100% wide-weave carbon fibre shell, but it’s also the first flip-front helmet to also offer a full carbon chin bar.
The LS2 Advant X Carbon helmet is certified to ECE 22.06, and for use in both open and closed positions, so you get full flexibility when riding. And it’s light at 1550 grams, utilising the low weight and strengh of the carbon fibre. The chin bar is also designed to sit closer to your face, which means you get less leverage on your neck and head when you’re adjusting it. And the visor will lift automatically, which makes life easier.

And for 2022, it gets a complete redesign, with a new High Performance Fibreglass Compositve (HPFC) shell available in an impressive six outer sizes. LS2 is the first company to offer this many options to suit the XS-3XL range, meaning you’ll get the maximum benefit from the aerodynamic design.

New LS2 Advant Flip-Front Motorcycle Helmet
As a replacement for the outgoing Valiant, the new LS2 Advant flip-front motorcycle helmet features a new design, a slightly lighter weight, and a similar price to the previous model.
The Valiant has been around for a few years, and offered a chin bar which could be swung 180 degrees to switch between full and open face riding, or just avoid having to take your helmet off so often at petrol stations and cafes. The new LS2 Advant offers the same flexibility with the visor opening automatically when you raise the front, and it’s certified to be used legally in both positions.
The new LS2 Advant flip-front motorcycle helmet is available in sizes XS-3XL in a choice of five solid colours or four Codex and Cooper graphic options. For the plain paint, prices start from £249.99, and include a Pinlock inset, helmet bag, carrying rucksack and air bag support, while the graphics and special colour options begin at £269.99, which is about the same as the previous Valiant helmet.
