Video: Alpinestars Supertech R10 helmet review
Alpinestars generated a mass of hype around their first race and road helmet - here’s the info behind that build-up
10 Jan 2025
Was in need of a new lid so thought I’d go with the R10. The lid was quite loud, but with earplugs it is perfect. My Cardo fitted in perfectly and mounted up to the side with ease. Glasses wearers, mine are tight to get on but it is doable and once on you don’t feel them there.
All in, a top lid and I’m please so far.
Fits very snug but breaks in pretty quickly. Super comfy and light but the most noticeable thing is the massive field of view! Makes my old helmet feel like looking through a letterbox. High quality as you'd expect.
Comfy from the start. Very light. Looks cool. Premium lid.
Usual excellent Sportsbikeshop service.
After the sales staff taking sometime with me making sure I got the perfect fit I went for the size medium…this helmet fits perfectly , it’s very comfortable , lightweight and quiet too…it also looks the part and worth spending the extra money on
Decided to treat myself ready for my new Aprilia. Stunning helmet. Size seems spot on. Very tight getting it on and off, however once my big dome is inside feels like being caressed by koala bear fur. Gorgeous feeling fit. Worried about ruining it's beautiful lines but dropped a Cardo Edge Pro on it. Still looks awesome
Great helmet, it super tight when breaking in but as soon as it’s fully broken in, it fits perfectly. It’s a bit bad for wind noise at higher speeds but that’s to be expected from a track helmet these days. You can even Pista flip the visor. Honestly no complaints about the Supertech R10 it’s genuinely everything I could ask for in a helmet.
Tried a few helmets on around this budget and obviously you go for fitment, this alpinestars helmet bought in a medium was tight to start with has now settled and after a week or so and was worn for 6 hours no complaints! I would agree with the other review this helmet does slightly whistle when the visor if lifted and but the ventilation is that good I only lifted when at standstill, after all it's a race helmet.... overall happy and all the accessories are great.
