Alpinestars generated a mass of hype around their first race and road helmet - here’s the info behind that build-up
Customers express high satisfaction with the helmet's comfort and fit, praising its lightweight construction and exceptional ventilation system that keeps heads cool.

The helmet fits snugly and settles well over time, accommodating features like communication systems. The fitting process is crucial, with some needing to adjust sizes. Overall, customers appreciate its premium experience, considering it worth the investment despite the high price.
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.
Fits well, is comfy & good build quality.
After years wearing Aria,s RX7 and AGV’s Pista RR I spent a lot of time researching this helmet as it commands a hefty price tag and everything that was said was true the air flow and venting are the best I’ve ever experienced keeping my head cool in our +30 degree summer heat, field of view vision brilliant especially left and right peripheral, my medium size was spot on with comfort better than my Arai which is saying something. I found the noise levels similar to my AGV but it did quiet down more if the ear covers were in place as I’ve a coms system fitted as I removed mine. The quality of the finish is the best I’ve ever had all complemented by a stylish carry bag to store your helmet and accessories in not just a soft pouch and a draw string.
I fully recommend this helmet for all its tech and next level styling.
The whole Sportsbikeshop experience was perfect as you would expect.
The helmet is super light with good aerodynamics but with the visor open it makes a terrible whistle.
Had a lot of brands. By far best fit and very good quality
This helmet offers a superior level of comfort, cradling the head securely. The ventilation system is remarkably effective, keeping the rider cool even in warm weather. Its aerodynamic design minimizes wind noise and buffeting. The visor mechanism is smooth and precise, allowing for easy adjustments on the go. The build quality is exceptional, reflecting a high level of craftsmanship. The lightweight construction reduces rider fatigue during long rides. The liner materials feel luxurious against the skin. Overall, it provides a truly premium riding experience.
Love this! Wore Shark for years...I'll keep that for pillion-rider!
Snug, lightweight and great ventilation
What a helmet. Went to store to try sizes and got some great advice on got, pressure points adjustment. Been bedding in the helmet at home and it’s the best fitted helmet I have owned. It’s an expensive purchase but put a price on you head. It’s full carbon, comes with 2 visors and alternative spoiler along with an amazing helmet bag. I got a great deal too as sportsbikeshop price matched a 10% off deal being run on another website.
Stealth helmet, best lid Iv owned fits perfectly and the vents let a lovely flow of air through, will be brilliant in the summer months. I tried on at my local store before purchase as it's pricey but well worth the money.
It is very comfortable and value for money.
So pleased with this purchase this helmet is stunning even better in person the most comfortable helmet I've ever worn really light weight and made with high quality materials fairly priced for what it is also available in other styles
Ordered a medium size in this helmet which sportsbikeshop sent out but it was a little tight even though my head measured as a medium so they are a slightly smaller fitting than other brands, so I organised my free return and was sent a large which is perfect, looks and is quality and has good vision also. Would definitely recommend
Whilst very expensive it really is a fantastic helmet - very comfortable and quiet and very stable at speed on a naked bike
Quality is superb
Fits my visual size, great quality, best fitting helmet ever, I usual wear arai rx7 or profile v stability at speed no buffeting! Needs the chin guard as air flow big! Cools very well, but when you first try on the extended cheek guards pinch on the temple bit after fist ride, snug as! Cannot say enough how good it is! Pricey but worth it!
Find it cheaper at any major motorcycle accessory retailer, online or in-store and we‘ll match it.
