This is almost a no-brainer. Californian awardwinning<br />

firm 6D have delivered a youth version<br />

of their latest ATR-2 off-road helmet and<br />

any parent with a youngster discovering (or<br />

racing) two-wheels needs to seriously consider<br />

their next helmet purchase. The ATR-2Y<br />

boasts the same Omni-Directional system as<br />

it’s senior brother; a form of engineering that<br />

6D claim is ‘the next level in brain protection’.<br />

The ATR-2 was a step forward from the gamechanging<br />

ATR-1 thanks to the new outer liner<br />

and the changeable inner liner that allowed<br />

even more protection against linear and angular<br />

acceleration and the kinds of impact that<br />

ultimately lead to concussion and more serious<br />

ailments.<br />

The ATR-2Y has the same refined shell and<br />

the upgrades across most of the helmet, such<br />

as the reinforced brow rib and cervical protection<br />

zone. In addition 6D say it ‘features<br />

a removable, washable comfort liner with a<br />

genuine DriLex antibacterial fabric, as well<br />

as 16 transfer ports and 6 exhaust ports that<br />

work in unison with the Air Gap Ventilation<br />

System to keep the rider cool.’ There are four<br />

Youth shell sizes from Small to XL. You won’t<br />

spend a better 450 dollars for the mini rider<br />

in the family.
