RUPI

Order number: A9779130

The lightweight Inmold full-face helmet RUPI is made for children and weighs only 385 grams. The removable chin bar makes the helmet particularly flexible to use. "Rupicapra rupicapra" means "chamois" in German. These are the eponym for the new children's bike helmet and climb effortlessly through terrain where we would rope up. They are even faster downhill. With the RUPI, ambitious kids may not be as sure-footed as chamois, but they are much better protected! The Ceramic Shell in combination with the Hi-EPS core ensures that forces can be absorbed in the event of a fall. The Run System ensures that the helmet fits perfectly, because only then is the best possible protection available. Since good ventilation is also essential when going downhill, the Rupi has 15 ventilation openings.

Technologies

Ceramic Shell

All Alpina helmets manufactured using the inmold process are fitted with a robust ceramic shell. A polycarbonate plate is stretched under intense heat onto the shape of the helmet in the making and pressed onto the Hi-EPS body under high pressure and thermally bonded to it. The Ceramic shell is characterized by several qualities: It is impact- and scratch-resistant, UV-stable and antistatic.

Hi-EPS

The inner shell of all Alpina helmets is made of Hi-EPS (High Expanded Polystyrene). The material has microscopically small air chambers that absorb the forces acting on the helmet in the event of an impact. Hi-EPS provides optimum protection and at the same time allows for extra-thin helmet wall as well as narrow helmet shapes.

Inmold

In the inmould production process, the polycarbonate upper shell is thermally bonded to the Hi-EPS inner shell of the helmet body under intense heat and pressure. This creates a large and inseparable connection between the upper and lower shell. Advantage: The helmet is very light and at the same time extremely stable.
