ALPINESTARS SM8 FEATURES

→ Shell construction utilises a highly advanced moulding technology with a multi-composite combination: uni-directional carbon composite with aramid layer that gives significant radial strength around the shell, preventing compression but allowing controlled deflection for reducing transmitted impact energy, and providing critical penetration protection.

→ This combination of layers is given even greater performance with an epoxy resin bonding that offers the best possible strength and energy management; limited outer shell deflection means the energy spreads wider and is better absorbed by the EPS liner.

→ The result of the unique shell lay-up process employed in the S-M8 construction results in extremely effective impact protection. With a fully equipped helmet testing facility, within Alpinestars Racing Development Centre, an exhaustive impact research program has resulted in the Supertech M8 returning linear and oblique impact performance which far improves upon current helmet regulation standard limits. For direct, linear, impact by an average magnitude of 41% and for rotational acceleration, oblique, impact performance by an average of 48%.

→ The Supertech M8 liner construction combines with the shell to offer highly efficient impact energy management.

→ S-M8 in four anatomical shell sizes. The Supertech M8 shell construction is optimised to offer best fit across the range of four size options. Shell sizes are manufactured in small, medium, large and extra-large to ensure that riders have the correct fit which not only improves comfort but, most importantly, the effectiveness of the helmet in an impact.

→ The Supertech M8 liner construction combines with the shell to offer highly efficient impact energy management.

→ Formed with a multi-density EPS polymer, the energy absorbing layer gives an inner helmet profile which soaks up impact forces dissipated over the outer shell at the point of an impact and provides a shape offering a close and comfortable fit.

→ The energy absorption performance of the S-M8 is substantially improved by a four section construction that allows for specific densities of polymer to be prepared for different zones around the helmet lining. Not only is energy performance improved but also fit and comfort.

→ Patented A-Head fitting height and angle adjustment system.

→ The Supertech M8 incorporates a patented system to allow the helmet to be tuned exactly to the riders preference for the height and angle at which the helmet sits on the head. This unique technology allows for an ultra-specific set-up that can be adapted for the type of riding and the rider's preference.

→ With a micro-adjustable pad that is connected to the helmet inner shell, it is possible to raise or lower the helmet fit and also, to tilt the helmet forward, or backwards.

Shipping

*There are some exclusions to the FREE and FLAT RATE shipping offers as follows;

Bulky Items: Items that carry the “Bulky” Banner are classed as too big and/or too heavy to qualify for free shipping but are still allowed by Australia Post and will attract a bulky freight charge.  Items such as, but not limited to, gear bags, stands, tyres, ramps

Items that cannot be shipped: There are some items that exceed the size restrictions of Australia Post and/or are considered dangerous items and are subsequently unable to be shipped by our current logistics partners. These items are Warehouse Collection only.

Returns

 AMA is committed to customer satisfaction and have ensured our returns policy is consistent with our responsibilities under the guidelines of Australian Consumer Law and the ACCC.

If for any reason you are unsatisfied with your purchase, you may return the unused product/s within 30 days of delivery for a refund, or alternatively, exchange for another product. Please note that return freight is the responsibility of the customer.

All returned item/s must be in original unused condition, with all tags attached and product packaging intact.  

Refund or Store Credit - If your order qualified for the “Free freight over $100” promotion, a freight restocking fee equivalent to the original postage cost incurred by AMA will apply. If you have multiple items on the order and the order is still over $100 after removing the returned items, a freight restocking fee will NOT apply. 

Exchange - If you are wanting to exchange a product due to size, colour, or satisfaction reasons, AMA Warehouse will happily accommodate this. If we are unable to fulfill your desired exchange, a friendly AMA team member will give you a call to discuss alternative options.
