The Fox Proframe RS is designed to meet the needs of all mountain riders and enduro racers, offering increased ventilation and decreased surface contact in a bid to keep the rider cooler on extended rides. The helmet then gets an Ionic and anti-microbial liner and cheek pads to offer a great fit, says Fox.

As for fit, that's taken care of thanks to a BOA fit system and there's a Fidlock magentic closure as well as a four step adjustable cradle and two thicknesses of cheek pads allowing the rider to tailor the helmet's fit. Along with that, the visor is three-position adjustable with space for goggles and there's a removable under-visor GoPro mount.

However, the star of the show is the brand-new Mips Integra Split tech. It's an all-new protection system that employs both an EPP and EPS layer with the Mips protection.

Available for £310, the new Fox Proframe RS comes in a selection of four sizes, seven colours and it's rated to downhill certification.
