‘S-Line’ lightweight flip-up with Pinlock systemBased near Nice in southern France, the Sifam Group (founded in 1994 by Pierre Manuel) is one of the largest France based distributors with a wide range of famous name and own brand hard parts available from their 3,900 sq m headquarters warehouse.
We featured their fast growing own brand ‘S-Line’ apparel range in IDN earlier this year, and seen here is one of the most recent additions to the programme – the ‘S-Line’ S550 flip-up helmet that the company describes as “mechanically and functionally excellent, with many high-end segment features setting a new standard for quality and price.”
Weighing in at 1,550 grams, it is said to be one of the world’s lightest flip front designs, “combining low weight with optimal stability.” There is an internal sun visor, and the “special shaping of the helmet shell and its aerodynamics make it perfectly stable with a perfect acoustic.”
The polycarbonate shell has a double solar screen (Pinlock system included), with frontal intake vents and rear extractors, removable and washable liner, micrometric buckle closure system, air and sound chin protector, removable nose protector and intercom headphone locations.
