Klim employs the idea of pas-
sive and active protection in all
their products. Passive protection
keeps the rider alert by ensuring
they're cool and comfortable, while
active protection uses technology
in the equipment to protect the
rider in the event of a crash. This
concept is tangible in this helmet,
as you can clearly see, touch and
feel the level of thought and in-
novation that went into developing
this premium product.
It's not inexpensive at $999.99,
but you pay for what you get, and
what you get with the GT1 Expedi-
tion is a top-quality, great-looking
to the GT1's super-quiet interior.
Klim didn't forget how real custom-
ers use this type of helmet, and the
build is ready for easy installation
of the most popular communica-
tion systems.
Ventilation is excellent, and I
love the ratcheting lower vents.
Because they're spring-loaded,
they are easy to open and they
stay open, even at freeway speeds.
The vent on the top of the helmet
is easy to operate and clearly indi-
cates whether it's open or closed.
The Koroyd impact-absorption
material and the channeled EPS
foam keep air moving through the
helmet and are designed to prevent
excessive heat buildup inside the
helmet, making long days under a
hot sun safer and more enjoyable.
helmet with ECE 22.06-level protec-
tion and modular functionality
without the goofy-looking chinbar
you see on other modular designs.
For my money, the styling, function-
ality and highest level of protection
are worth every penny.
Keith Dowdle
The Klim GT1 Expedition's
styling, functionality, and highest
level of protection are worth every
penny of its $999.99 price.
