Caberg’s elegant new ‘Uptown’ classic jet style helmet has been “conceived for the touring world, while also being ideal for everyday urban use,” according to the Italian manufacturer.
Available in two 1,150 +/-50gr polycarbonate shell sizes, two front air vents and rear extractors deliver excellent ventilation and features include Caberg’s exclusive Double Visor Tech system with glove-friendly inner sun visor. The extra wide aerodynamic outer transparent visor is anti-scratch treated and prepared to fit the Pinlock lens; lateral ratchets prevent the visor from rubbing against the shell.

The micrometric buckle makes for safe and easy adjustments, and a ring means secure attachment of the helmet to the bike. The removable and washable lining is made from breathable fabrics and ‘Uptown’ is preset for use with Caberg’s ‘Just Speak S’ Bluetooth wireless communication system, which allows the rider to communicate with the passenger and their cellphone, to connect to a GPS system and to listen to music through an mp3 player or mobile phone. ‘Just Speak S’ uses the Bluetooth A2DP profile.
Also seen here is Caberg’s ‘Droid’ flip-up – “a model with an aggressive look and a distinct identity, with avantgarde technical solutions for the most demanding touring riders.”
Available in two 1,550 gr +/- 50 gr polycarbonate shell sizes, the chin guard has two individually adjustable air vents to drive air directly to the inner surface of the visor, avoiding misting even during extreme weather conditions, according to the company. The glove-friendly ventilation system has a wide adjustable front vent and inner air channels and two additional chin guard vents.

Caberg say they were the first Italian manufacturer to introduce a flip-up and that the experience gained has resulted in a design that has received the dual P/J homologation which, among other benefits for the stocking dealer and their customers, allows the helmet to be ridden with the chin guard open thanks to the lever on the left side of the helmet – when in the ‘J’ position this lever locks the chin guard in the fully open position, avoiding accidental closing.
‘Droid’ is also equipped with Caberg’s exclusive Double Visor Tech system with anti-scratch treated inner sun visor and anti-scratch/anti-fog clear outer with Max Vision Pinlock lens.
The ‘Droid’ has an entirely removable and washable lining and is made with high-grade hypoallergenic and transpiring fabrics, spectacle-friendly cheek pads and is Caberg ‘Just Speak S’ comms system ready.
