Kali Protectives has unveiled the Kru, a pioneering full-face trail helmet that seamlessly integrates downhill-level protection with the ventilation and comfort essential for modern trail and enduro riders. This innovative helmet features a 360° titanium chin bar, marking a significant advancement in rider safety and performance.
Innovative Design and Construction
The Kru’s standout feature is its continuous 360° titanium chin bar, which is directly molded into the helmet’s structure. This design eliminates the need for bolts or mechanical joints, enhancing both strength and durability. The titanium frame not only provides robust protection but also maintains a lightweight profile, addressing the common trade-off between safety and comfort. (road.cc)
