Although updated to meet the newest Snell SA2020 certification, the Stilo ST5 GT retains its FIA 8858-2015 homologation as well. This makes the helmet legal for nearly all road race usage (some sanctioning bodies require FIA 8860 homologated helmets).
INTEGRATED FLEXIBILITY
The Stilo ST5 GT Composite is unsurpassed in built-in flexibility. Its two side ports can be fitted with 3 different types of integrated communication electronics, forced air, helmet eject system, or a hydration system. Thanks to its innovative shell design, mounting and routing these options to the ST5 GT is sleek and seamless. When not in use, you don't even know the features are there.

Industry-standard M6 threaded receivers are molded into the helmet shell to accommodate anchors for whichever head-and-neck restraint you use.
Size Note: We have found that customers who typically wear a size 59 helmet are most comfortable in size 60, which uses the large shell. Please order accordingly.

An effective helmet is one that fits properly. Have an assistant use a dressmaker's tape or a piece of string to measure the circumference of your head, starting at a point about an inch above the eyebrows and around a point in the back of the head that results in the largest measurement, finally wrapping back around to the front. It's a good idea to take a few measurements and order your helmet based on the largest.
Size note: We have found that customers who typically wear a size 59 helmet are most comfortable in size 60, which uses the large shell. Please order accordingly.

Safety First, Second, and Always: While it boasts of its Snell SA2020 certification (major bragging rights there), it hasn’t forgotten its FIA 8858-2015 roots. Basically, it's the cool kid that’s welcome at almost every racing party.
The Swiss Army Knife of Helmets: With ports for communications, forced air, and hydration, the Stilo ST5.1 GT is a multitasker's dream. And thanks to its design genius, all these features blend seamlessly, keeping you focused on the road.
Get the Perfect Fit: Trust us, size matters. So get your head measured correctly (maybe turn it into a fun evening activity?). And if you’re teetering between sizes, might we suggest going a size up? After all, comfort is king.
Specifications to Make You Swoon:
Noise attenuating earmuffs to ensure your ears are blissfully ignorant of the outside world.
Ports ready for whatever you throw at it—be it communications, forced air, or hydration.

The ST5.1 GT Carbon is Stilo's Snell SA2020-compliant version of their best-selling carbon helmet. With an autoclave molded carbon fiber shell, the ST5.1 GT Carbon offers strength superior to fiberglass and composites while minimizing weight.
With its large eyeport, the Stilo ST5.1 GT Carbon offers unsurpassed peripheral vision and all of the available tinted, mirrored, and iridium-colored visors (sold separately) have a center pinch-clip to make opening and closing easy, even while wearing nomex racing gloves.
Although updated to meet the newest Snell SA2020 certification, the Stilo ST5.1 GT Carbon retains its FIA 8858-2015 homologation as well. This makes the helmet legal for nearly all road race usage (except for those sanctioning bodies requiring FIA 8860 homologation).
INTEGRATED FLEXIBILITY
The Stilo ST5.1 GT Composite is unsurpassed in built-in flexibility. Its two side ports can be fitted with three different types of integrated communication electronics, forced air, helmet eject system, or a hydration system. Thanks to its innovative shell design, mounting and routing these options to the ST5.1 GT is sleek and seamless. When not in use, you don't even know the features are there.
Whether you're using side-mounted communications, side air, or a built-in hydration kit for staying hydrated during long enduro stints, everything is neat, tidy and completely out of the way when not needed. Stilo offers simply the best modular racing helmet on the market.
Industry-standard M6 threaded receivers are molded into the helmet shell to accommodate anchors for whichever head-and-neck restraint you use. Size Note: We have found that customers who typically wear a size 59 helmet are most comfortable in size 60, which uses the large shell. Please order accordingly.
To get the most accurate measurement please have an assistant use a fabric measuring tape or a piece of string to measure the circumference of your head starting at a point approximately one inch above your eyebrows in front, around a point in the back of your head that results in the largest possible measurement, and finally wrapping back to the front. It is a good idea to take several measurements to make sure you have the largest one.
STILO ST5 GT CARBON FIBER HELMET FEATURES:
Noise attenuating earmuffs to reduce exterior noise
Ports for integrated communications, forced air, or hydration
SA2020 Snell certification offers increased protection
