HJC Valeco 2 Helmet

The VALECO 2 helmet is a regal representation of HJC’s cycling helmet innovation, perfectly combining form and function to create a stunning, trendy design. Its unique shell design, with separated island-like structures, is a fresh and innovative design element that is sure to capture attention.

Features

The VALECO 2 features an aerodynamic shell shape that delivers an unparalleled level of performance satisfaction. It allows riders to experience HJC’s representative technologies of COOLPATH™️ and SELFIT™️. The VALECO 2 is a right helmet for all riders who appreciate the joy of riding with an optimal satisfaction in both design and performance.

The new VALECO 2 combines various advanced technologies developed for the other models to offer you the best possible experience in terms of safety, ventilation, comfort and design. The Helmet is also equipped with more classic features such as: adjustable occipital cradle, goggle mount, strap splitters.

This helmet comes with a bag to protect the helmet when you take it with you.

Technologies

SELFIT™

SELFIT is an automatic self-adjusting fitting system which is a revolutionary technology in bicycle helmet fitting.

Once the helmet fit is set for your head it doesn’t require further adjustment, even when your head is moving during the ride. The SELFIT system automatically adjusts the gap and provides consistent fitting and comfort for your head.

5-Step Snap Fit

5 snap fitting positions provide consistent fitting and comfort for all different types of head shapes and sizes. The rider can adjust the fitting with precision, resulting in a helmet that will ideally adjusted for a perfect ride, time after time.

COOLPATH™

COOLPATH is a new technology replacing the inner padding, allowing the cool air to flow around your head and improving your comfort during the ride. The cool air flow and the lightness of the helmet enhance the fitting and provide an excellent riding experience.

Wind Tunnel Tested

HJC helmets are tested in the laboratory as well as in “real-life” to meet the highest quality standards. HJC is one of the very few helmet companies equipped with its own state-of-the-art wind tunnel laboratory to test aerodynamics, ventilation, noise, and more. The HJC wind tunnel test lab measures the air forces in a variety of riding conditions to improve helmet performance.

Aerodynamic Design

Coming from MotoGP race-helmet design experience, HJC designers and engineers have become experts in aerodynamics and wind ventilated helmets. Aero helmets, as the word implies, are more aerodynamic than the conventional racing bike helmet, but with compromised ventilation performance. With HJC Helmets, this compromise is very much reduced. HJC offers probably the best ventilated semi-aero helmet on the market…. Save Watts with HJC Helmets!

Ventury Dynamics

In order to achieve maximum ventilation, a technical adaptation of Bernoulli’s principle is applied to HJC’s aerodynamically enhanced models. In motion, the rate of surface flow generally increases as it progresses towards the rear of the helmet. Through pressure differences, cool air from the frontal intake is extracted through the rear vent for internal heat dissipation, giving the cyclist optimum ventilation and perfect air flow while riding.

Advanced Air Channel System

A certain amount of air passes through the front air-intake port, then circulates inside the helmet and finally exits through the exhaust port. The internal airflow is then increased to cool the head and evacuate the heat.

In-mold Construction

In-mold is a method consisting in bonding the EPS together with the outer polycarbonate shell for greater structural strength. This improves the rider’s protection by providing a compact reinforcement and gives the product a perfect finish.

Feather Light

HJC bicycle helmets are designed and engineered through precise measures to have the lightest weight possible. Density, placement, shapes and materials all play a part in weight optimization.
