Alpinestars' flagship helmet, the Supertech R10, is reviewed for both street and track use. As the flagship of the company's full-fledged entry into the helmet market, its light weight, protective performance, and refined aerodynamics are put to the test.
A helmet is something you only really understand once you've worn it and actually ridden - not from the looks or the price tag. The Supertech R10 is Alpinestars' flagship. Checking its weight, protection, and aerodynamics both on the street and on the track - I think that's exactly the right approach for a review. You can only call something 'good' once you've checked how it handles wind noise and weight over long stretches of wear. I don't want to compromise on the gear that protects my head.

The R10's design is way too cool, Alpinestars is really getting serious.
If the protection is up to standard, I'd want to wear it on the street too, what certification does it pass?
Top of the line probably means top-of-the-line pricing too... easily over 100,000 yen.
For that price, wouldn't an Arai RX-7X or SHOEI X-Fifteen be just as good?
Alpinestars is an apparel company, right, can they really get serious about helmets?
Interesting to see how far they can chip into Arai and SHOEI's stronghold.
The Supertech R10, how many grams does it weigh? Want to see the actual number if they've pushed the weight down.
