/ SHELL CONSTRUCTION /

CONCEPT VIRTUAL IMPACT DATA

=

enables us to impact-test any design virtually before building a 3D model.

IN-MOULDING INTELLIGENT FUSION =

different densities of material depending on the characteristics of each model.

ABS POLYMER OUTER SHELL

=

one-piece thermoplastic construction. Highly durable and excellent abrasion resistance.

HOMOTHETIC EMBEDDED SKELETON

=

dissipates the force of impact over the whole shell.

AIR INFLOW VENTS AIRFLOW_2_CHIN

=

big air vents on the chin guard for good respiration-essential for high-performance.

COMPATIBILITY

=

compatible with most available neck braces and goggles.

NO HEARING LOSS

=

It is fundamental for safety to be able to hear well, even when you have pulled on your helmet.

/ PADDING / FRONT PAD GEL O2

= hypo-allergenic, anti-bacterial, made from thermo-stabilising polyurethane morpho-gel. Keeps you cooler.

ANTI-ALLERGENIC COOLMAX™ PADS

= high-tech material assures rapid evaporation of absorbed perspiration for greater comfort.

ANTI-ALLERGENIC INTERIOR PADS

= anti-allergenic fabric. Hand washable. / STRAPS AND LATERAL DIVIDERS / KEVLAR™ STRAPS

= ventilated, with breathable and ultra-resistant they have numerous advantages over traditional straps.

LATERAL DIVIDERS STRONG FIT

= positioning them correctly, then blocking them in the chosen position is child’s play.

DOUBLE-D BUCKLE

= can be adjusted perfectly and won’t need to be retightened as is the case with an automatic buckle. / RETENTION SYSTEM / RETENTION SYSTEM GRAVITY OCCIPITAL LOCK 2

= includes a vertical adjustment. Broader contact area, the pressure is distributed in a homogenous way.

RETENTION SYSTEM GRAVITY OCCIPITAL LOCK

= there is a dial at the back of the helmet for easy one-hand size adjustment. / VISOR / MX TYPE ADJUSTABLE VISOR

= tool-free angle adjustment. The peak is attached using anodized aluminium screws. A style statement too!

MX TYPE ADJUSTABLE VISOR WITH S.O.R. DEVICE

= In head-on impacts, the visor unclips from its attachment preventing it from knocking the head backwards. / OTHER FEATURES / REFLECTIVE REAR STICKER

= at night or in tunnels, makes the bike visible to drivers approaching from behind.

REMOVABLE KIT FOR CAMERA MOUNT

= stick your camera mount to our MOPOV support. Leaves your helmet clean and tidy when not filming.

GOGGLE LOCK

= keeps your goggle strap in place on the helmet.

Brave

An unbeatable track record.

In only three seasons, the Brave helmet has imposed itself as the absolute leader in the world of full-face helmets. Winner of the Mégavalanche® in the Alpe d’Huez in 2010,2011 and 2012, BMX world champion title winner with Shanaze Reade, many victories in the Downhill World Cup, and the list goes on... It is the perfect illustration of the Bluegrass development philosophy: products which are ‘ready for combat’ and whose technical excellence is validated in competitions.

7

Guide ribs on the headband, XL field of vision, lower part of the shell with no protrusions: everything has been thought out so as to optimize the fit of the helmet/mask and helmet/ neck brace. Fully compatible with most other models available.

Professional riders who helped develop the Explicit/Brave helmets insisted from the outset on how important it is to have air vents on the chin guard because good respiration is essential for high-performance. We listened and went on to create the most ventilated chin guard on the market. Its design was also dictated by our search to find the best balance between maximal protection and minimum protrusion.

Explicit

Strong and good-looking.

Explicit’s purist design only serves to highlight the best technical wizardry available.

If today Explicit and Brave are the gold standards of full-face fibreglass helmets, it is because they offer the best technical solution for the demanding rider’s every need.

The difference in price between the two models is due to the graphic solution (plain colours) chosen for the Explicit model. This is less costly to produce than the Brave model which requires the application of numerous transfers onto the shell. We have simply passed on this difference in costs for the benefit of the customer.

11

Both Explicit and Brave are available in 3 different shell sizes. Compare that with other brands: 3 different shell sizes ensure that your helmet is the right size for your head giving much greater protection.

Our Research and Development team have designed their own IT tool called Virtual Impact Data.

When we are ready to launch production of the first prototype we have already been able to test and fine tune the design virtually so it will offer the best volume/ weight/safety/rigidity/ventilation ratio possible. Our competitive edge is visible and even measurable. Our helmets are among the most resistant and lightweight - and we don’t even need to use carbon. Â

Intox

The next generation.

Brain protection should be a helmet’s primary mission.

The EPS inner-shell was designed to dissipate the force of an impact and prevent the brain from hitting the skull in the event of an accident. With Intox, learning to be speedy comes naturally but safely. It is every bit as stylish as helmets seen on the SX pro circuit, and as for safety, it’s up there with the big boys.

15

The MX type visor protects the face and especially the eyes from the risk of being hit by branches and from the sun or, if the weather is less favourable, from being splattered by mud. The visor is also a basic style statement. Tool-free angle adjustment. Attached using aluminium screws on side.

Derived from motorbikes, the double-D system means the strap can be fitted perfectly without having to retighten it from time to time, as is the case with an automatic buckle (known as a quick release buckle) By simply sliding the strap to the end you can take off the helmet or just wear it in rest position without having to undo the buckle.

Golden Eyes HES

The Bluegrass Eagle extends its grip.

“One of the cutting edge engineering projects that we have developed recently is HES (Homothetic Embedded Skeleton) construction technology. By partially embedding two shells into each other, we can reduce the weight of the helmet while increasing its shock absorption capacity. It also offers our engineers new design opportunities.

This promising technology has been used in Golden Eyes, the first All-mountain helmet designed by Bluegrass.

19

Born on the slopes of the Bluegrass Enduro Tour, Golden Eyes is the fruit of two years of research and development in the field.

A helmet destined to take on any type of terrain and conditions in the pure spirit of endurance as we know and love.

From now on anyone can film themselves while they are riding.

And to help you the Golden Eyes comes fitted with a MOPOV (My Own Point Of View) kit which allows you to fit your onboard camera onto your helmet in a flash.

The removable MOPOV kit is fitted to the middle of helmet. An Allen key is all you need to fit the kit. Light weight. The self-adhesive fitting on your camera fixes to the MOPOV and not to the actual helmet. Nothing stays on the helmet after use. System suitable for multi-brands.

Super Bold

Build your network.

If you are in training for the next Vienna Air King, then the Super Bold is the helmet for you. But it would be just as at ease if it accompanied you to the Tate Modern in London, to the Sydney Opera House or to sit on the terrace of the Granola in Copenhagen.

The Super Bold’s design is iconic...and icons need no comment!

23

At Bluegrass, style goes hand in hand with functionality.

It is not by chance that the English top model Juliet Elliott fell in love with the Super Bold at first sight. Why don’t you get the Superbold look, and don’t be surprised if you make lots of new friends ;-)

The role of the Gravity Occipital Lock is to ensure that the helmet is held firmly on the head whatever the situation even when doing the most acrobatic tricks.

It also makes it easy to adjust the size using only one hand thanks to the dial at the back of the helmet. The internal mechanism was designed for precision and reliability.

Our engineers ride.

1500m of ascents and 2000m of descents somewhere between the Umbrail pass and the village of Poschiavo in Switzerland, during a beautiful summer’s day, was enough to convince our engineering team of the need for a knee/ shin guard that you can easily pull on for long descents and just as quickly fold away in a backpack during long climbs.

Thanks to the use of d3o technology, integrated into a neoprene sock, the Super Bobcat d3o™ us particularly flexible. You can almost roll them up to put them away. see more

On the fastener above the knee and the elbow, the rougher hook side of the Velcro is integrated into the adjustment strap and faces downwards. The softer loop side of the Velcro is integrated into the sock which means that it faces upwards. If, once your guard has been adjusted to fit, the fastening strap doesn’t completely cover the Velcro on the sock, the lining of your shorts or your sleeve will only rub against the softer loop side and not be damaged.

Grizzly

What if man didn’t descend from the ape but from the armadillo?

The design of the Grizzly protective core was strongly inspired by an armadillo’s armour with its 18 bony plates.

The only difference is that, unlike him, you won’t need to roll yourself up into a ball whenever you feel threatened.

You’ll just need to concentrate on your riding to overcome the obstacle.

Available in junior sizes (from 8 years old), the Grizzly feels just at home in a mountain bike park as on a BMX track. see more

Wolverine

Anatomically superior.

Designed to be worn under shorts or trousers, Wolverine protective shorts have the dual task of protecting highly sensitive and exposed areas of the body while at the same time going totally unnoticed so that they don’t get in the way of pedalling and guarantee a comfortable ride even after many hours in the saddle.

Every zone of Wolverine protective shorts has been designed to meet these two criteria. The result: A product which looks very sleek and simple but is highly functional. see more

The Bluegrass Active Race Ergonomics protocol was developed specifically to engineer and design all our protective gear. The BARE protocol is an indispensible interface between the protective clothing and the rider so that the task of the former (the protective gear is there to give maximum protection to the rider) is completely compatible with the needs of the latter (nothing should prevent the rider from concentrating on his riding).

You have the controls.

Cougar gloves give you the most efficient, safest and the highest performing interface between you and your bike.

Lynx

For intuitive riding.

When designing Lynx, our designers had a very clear target in mind: bringing together in one product all the features and qualities needed to create versatile gloves which will perform well over any terrain, able to magnify the tactile experience in all circumstances and in complete safety.

Mission accomplished!

The palm is reinforced on the outside and at the base of the fingers by RAAW (Resistant Abrasion And Wear) panels. RAAW fabric has a molecular structure which strengthens handlebar grip even during extreme weather, but also gives an excellent resistance to wear and protects against shocks in the most vulnerable areas. see more

Finger licking good.

Designed as much to please the wearer as the observer.

If you prefer climbs rather than downhill, these gloves are probably not for you. At home over any terrain, Red Wolf gloves make riding a real pleasure.

With added safety.

Silicone grip print on fingertips of index and middle finger.

Controlled breaking doesn’t only depend on the quality of the disk and pads; it also needs precise and firm finger control.

So enjoy yourself (but don’t brake too much)! see more
