Stilo Venti WRC ZERO Carbon Fiber Helmet 8860-2018
from $6,500.00
Stilo Venti WRC ZERO 8860-2018 Carbon Fiber Helmet
Uncompromising Safety and Performance
Stilo Venti WRC ZERO 8860-2018 Carbon Fiber Helmet
The Stilo Venti WRC ZERO 8860-2018 Carbon Fiber Helmet is engineered for professional rally drivers and co-drivers who demand elite protection, exceptionally low weight, and clear in-car communication. Combining an advanced carbon fiber shell with Stilo’s weight-saving PURO technology, integrated WRC electronics, and FIA 8860-2018 certification, this open-face rally helmet is built for the most demanding stages in motorsport.
The Venti WRC ZERO is the premium, weight-focused version of Stilo’s championship-winning Venti rally helmet. Its compact shell, noise-attenuating earmuffs, adjustable microphone, and recessed communication connection create a complete helmet and intercom platform designed around the needs of a rally crew.
FIA 8860-2018 Protection for Elite Competition
The Stilo Venti WRC ZERO is certified to the FIA 8860-2018 advanced helmet standard. Developed for high-level motorsport, this certification subjects the helmet to demanding impact, penetration, flame-resistance, and structural performance requirements.
Its high-tensile carbon fiber shell delivers exceptional strength without the unnecessary bulk associated with heavier helmet constructions. Factory-fitted HANS post anchors allow the helmet to be connected to a compatible frontal head restraint without requiring separate anchor installation.
Ultra-Light ZERO Carbon Construction
Every part of the Venti WRC ZERO is designed with weight reduction in mind. Stilo’s PURO carbon technology eliminates the need for a conventional final clear-coat layer, reducing unnecessary material while revealing the helmet’s distinctive raw carbon fiber finish.
The result is the lightest helmet configuration in the Venti WRC range, with a listed weight of approximately 2.6 pounds, depending on helmet size and equipment configuration. Reducing weight at the driver’s head can help limit neck fatigue during long rally stages, endurance events, and repeated high-load driving conditions.
Stilo uses three shell sizes across the Venti WRC range so each helmet can maintain a more compact and proportional exterior profile. This approach helps prevent smaller sizes from being placed inside an unnecessarily large or heavy shell.
Integrated Stilo WRC Communication System
The Venti WRC ZERO is designed around Stilo’s integrated WRC intercom system. Noise-attenuating earmuffs surround the built-in speakers, helping isolate the driver or co-driver from engine, drivetrain, gravel, and cabin noise.
An adjustable magnetic dynamic noise-canceling microphone is mounted on a reshaped boom designed to improve voice clarity. The microphone position can be adjusted closer to or farther from the mouth to achieve clearer communication while reducing unwanted ambient sound.
This integrated design eliminates the need to install a separate headset inside the helmet, creating a cleaner fit and reducing interference between the communication equipment, helmet padding, and the wearer’s ears.
Wireless and Hard-Wired Intercom Compatibility
The helmet’s recessed side communication port is shaped to accept the Stilo WL wireless key, sold separately. Once installed, the wireless key follows the contour of the shell to help prevent interference with FHR straps and helmet hardware.
The integrated electronics are also compatible with traditional hard-wired Stilo DG and WRC-series amplifiers. This allows a competitor to use the same helmet in vehicles equipped with either Stilo wireless or conventional wired communication systems.
Driver-Focused Visibility and Ventilation
The redesigned shell and adjustable peak provide the visibility needed for constantly changing rally conditions. The peak can be raised or lowered to help manage low-angle sunlight, glare, and changing terrain without obstructing the driver’s forward view.
The Venti WRC ZERO is also compatible with Stilo short visors, sold separately, for competitors who want additional eye protection. Integrated top ventilation openings help reduce heat and moisture buildup and allow the helmet to be used with a compatible Stilo Top Air system.
Comfort for Long Rally Stages
Updated interior padding works with the helmet’s soft noise-attenuating earmuffs to create a secure and comfortable fit. Expanded-polystyrene cheek protection supports the sides of the face while preserving the acoustic isolation required for clear communication.

How to Measure for a Stilo Helmet
Use a soft measuring tape to measure around the largest circumference of your head. Position the tape approximately one inch above your eyebrows, pass it above your ears, and wrap it around the widest point at the back of your head.
Take the measurement two or three times and use the largest result. Compare the measurement in centimeters with the Stilo sizing chart. The helmet should feel evenly snug around the entire head without creating sharp or painful pressure points.
With the chin strap secured, the helmet should not rotate independently when moved from side to side. New helmet padding may relax slightly as it conforms to the wearer, so a new helmet should not begin with a loose fit.

Stilo ST6 FN ABP Carbon Fiber Racing Helmet | FIA 8860-2018 ABP
$4,199.95
Stilo ST6 FN ABP Carbon Fiber 8860-2018 Racing Helmet
The Stilo ST6 FN ABP Carbon Fiber Racing Helmet is built for professional drivers who demand Stilo's highest level of open-cockpit protection without sacrificing weight, airflow, visibility, or comfort. Developed with direct input from Formula 1 and endurance racing teams, the ST6 generation advances the championship-proven ST5 platform with updated aerodynamics, a redesigned ventilation system, improved downward visibility, new interior padding, and an entirely new visor system.
This FN ABP version combines Stilo's lightweight Carbon PURO Tech construction with FIA 8860-2018 ABP homologation. Advanced Ballistic Protection extends the protected area across the forehead, making the ST6 FN ABP specifically suited to high-level open-wheel and open-cockpit racing where protection from airborne debris is critical.
FIA 8860-2018 Advanced Ballistic Protection
ABP stands for Advanced Ballistic Protection. The ST6 FN ABP incorporates an extended protective area across the forehead to address the additional hazards faced by drivers in exposed cockpits.
The FIA 8860-2018 ABP configuration represents one of Stilo's highest-specification full-face racing helmet platforms and is intended for competitors operating at professional and international levels of motorsport.
Developed with Formula 1 Experience
Stilo developed the ST6 with extensive input from drivers and teams competing at the highest levels of Formula 1 and endurance racing. Feedback from professional drivers influenced the helmet's airflow, visibility, comfort, aerodynamics, and hardware.
The result is not simply a cosmetic update to the ST5. The ST6 was re-engineered around the real demands of modern high-speed race cars, particularly open-wheel applications where aerodynamic stability, cooling, vision, and helmet security all become more critical.
Carbon PURO Tech Shell
The ST6 FN uses Stilo's Carbon PURO Tech construction, developed to produce an extremely lightweight carbon shell while maintaining the structural performance required for elite motorsport.
PURO technology minimizes unnecessary finishing materials and coatings, allowing the carbon construction itself to deliver a clean finished surface while reducing excess weight.
Up to 11% Lighter Than the ST5
Weight reduction was a major focus during development of the ST6. Stilo states that the new generation can be up to 11% lighter than the ST5 while delivering improved safety performance.
Reducing helmet mass can be especially valuable in formula and open-cockpit racing, where high lateral loads, braking forces, aerodynamic buffeting, and long race durations place substantial stress on the driver's neck.
Three-Shell Sizing System
The ST6 range uses three shell sizes to better match the exterior helmet dimensions to the driver's actual head size.
Rather than placing a broad range of sizes into a single oversized shell, this approach helps keep the helmet as compact and light as practical for each driver. Stilo also offers an additional extra-small Zero shell on selected ST6 Zero models.
F1-Inspired Airflow System
The ST6 FN ABP features a redesigned airflow system based on Stilo's Formula 1 experience. Front ventilation was reshaped to move more air through the helmet while maintaining the structural and aerodynamic requirements of high-level competition.
Top ventilation openings channel air through the helmet's internal structure to help reduce heat, sweat, and moisture during demanding race sessions.
Improved Downward Field of View
Stilo increased the ST6's downward field of vision compared with the ST5. This change provides drivers with improved visibility toward the steering wheel, dashboard, controls, mirrors, and nearby cockpit surroundings.
The additional visibility can be especially useful in formula and prototype cockpits where the seating position and surrounding bodywork can make downward sightlines particularly important.
Injection-Molded ST6 ABP Visor
The ST6 introduces a new injection-molded visor designed for optical performance, durability, and smoother operation.
The visor receives Stilo's new high-performance washable anti-fog treatment, helping maintain clear vision while allowing the visor to be cleaned and maintained more easily than traditional anti-fog coatings.
The ST6 FN ABP requires the dedicated Stilo ST6 ABP visor family to maintain the helmet's Advanced Ballistic Protection configuration.
Dual-Position Visor Lock
Stilo redesigned the visor locking mechanism for the ST6 generation. The system is engineered to comply with current FIA requirements with the visor in both the fully closed position and ventilation position.
This allows the driver to use a controlled partially open setting for additional airflow while retaining a secure mechanical locking system.
Updated Visor Hardware
New visor pivots, sliders, and mounting hardware provide smoother operation and easier installation compared with the previous generation.
The updated design also makes visor removal and replacement more straightforward when changing between clear, tinted, mirrored, or other compatible ST6 ABP shields.
Improved Cheek Pad Stability
The ST6 uses newly designed cheek padding intended to improve both comfort and helmet stability. The revised shape helps hold the helmet securely around the driver's face while reducing unnecessary pressure during long sessions.
This is especially important in open cars where wind loading, vibration, and high cornering forces can continually act on the helmet.
Designed for Open-Cockpit Performance
The ST6 FN ABP interior and aerodynamic package are specifically optimized for performance in open cars. The combination of improved cheek support, airflow management, ABP forehead protection, and refined external aerodynamics makes the helmet particularly well suited to formula, prototype, and other exposed-cockpit race cars.
Communication-System Ready
The ST6 FN ABP is prepared for installation of multiple Stilo communication configurations. Internal routing provisions allow compatible microphones, earbud connections, earmuff speaker systems, radio connections, and other electronic components to be integrated cleanly into the helmet.
This gives teams flexibility to configure the helmet around the communication system required by the car, championship, or driver's preference.
Integrated Equipment Routing
Stilo redesigned the internal padding channels of the ST6 platform to simplify installation of racing electronics and related equipment.
The routing system helps keep communication wiring and other components organized while minimizing interference with helmet fit and driver comfort.

ST6 FN ABP vs. ST6 FN
The primary difference between the ST6 FN ABP and standard ST6 FN is the additional Advanced Ballistic Protection incorporated into the ABP model.
The standard ST6 FN provides the core ST6 carbon construction, airflow, visibility, visor, and comfort improvements. The ST6 FN ABP adds the extended forehead protection required for ABP homologation and uses dedicated ST6 ABP visors.
ST6 FN ABP vs. ST6 FN Zero ABP
Both models provide Advanced Ballistic Protection, but the ST6 FN Zero ABP represents Stilo's ultimate weight-focused configuration and provides access to the additional smaller Zero shell for the appropriate head sizes.
The standard ST6 FN ABP offers the same core ST6 design philosophy and FIA 8860-2018 ABP protection in Stilo's Carbon PURO Tech construction.
ST6 ABP Visor Compatibility
The ST6 FN ABP requires dedicated Stilo ST6 ABP visors. Genuine ST6 ABP shields are available in multiple configurations, including clear, smoked, silver, mirrored, and double-glazed options.
Because the ABP visor is part of the helmet's protective system, standard non-ABP ST6 visors should not be substituted when ABP compliance is required.
Getting the Correct ST6 Fit
Stilo revised its sizing and shell structure for the ST6 generation, so drivers moving from an ST5 should not automatically assume that the same labeled size will provide an identical fit.
A correctly fitted helmet should provide light, even pressure around the entire head without isolated pressure points. The helmet should remain stable when the head moves and should not rotate independently around the driver's head.
Measure around the widest part of the head with a flexible measuring tape, approximately one inch above the eyebrows and around the rear of the skull. Take the measurement multiple times and compare the largest consistent measurement with the ST6 sizing chart.

The helmet uses Bell's 3mm SE07 shield platform, providing access to compatible clear, tinted and mirrored replacement shields for different racing and lighting conditions.
Bell Racing SmartLock Visor System
Bell's SmartLock mechanism helps securely retain the visor during competition while providing straightforward operation for the driver. Combined with the DSAF shield, the system is designed to provide excellent visibility and reliable visor security at racing speeds.
Advanced Aerodynamics and Noise Management
The RS7 Ultra Lite shell and shield profile are optimized to improve aerodynamic performance while helping reduce internal noise and improve overall energy management.
Optional rear spoilers, top gurneys and chin-bar gurneys allow racers to further tune the helmet's aerodynamic characteristics for specific vehicles and cockpit environments.
Flexible Interior With Included Ear Cups
Bell's multi-purpose fit system allows the RS7 Ultra Lite to be used with or without the included ear cups. This provides racers with additional flexibility when configuring the helmet for noise reduction, communications or personal comfort.
The standard interior uses dark grey high-strength, high-comfort flame-resistant fabric. Alternative interior colors may also be available by special order.

Ultra-Lightweight Carbon Fiber Construction
The Bell M8 ULTRA features an ultra-lightweight carbon fiber shell engineered to deliver excellent strength-to-weight performance while reducing unnecessary helmet mass.
Carbon fiber construction helps minimize the weight supported by the driver's neck during demanding racing sessions, making the M8 ULTRA an attractive option for endurance racing, club competition, and frequent track use.
Beneath the carbon shell, an advanced multi-density, multi-piece liner works to manage impact energy while maintaining a comfortable and secure fit.
The helmet combines this modern construction technology with the timeless appearance of Bell's original M-Series racing helmets.
Large Eyeport for Maximum Racing Visibility
One of the defining features of the Bell M8 ULTRA is its generously sized eyeport, which provides excellent visibility in closed-cockpit racing environments.
The large opening is particularly beneficial for drivers who wear prescription glasses or prefer additional peripheral vision while monitoring mirrors, navigating traffic, and approaching corners.
Compared with narrow-eyeport racing helmets, the M8 ULTRA emphasizes an open field of view without sacrificing its full-face protective design.
This makes the helmet particularly appealing for sports car racing, touring cars, endurance racing, and performance driving events.
Advanced Ventilation and RS7 Forced-Air Compatibility
The Bell M8 ULTRA incorporates a versatile ventilation system designed to promote airflow during demanding track conditions.
Lower front chin bar ventilation works alongside upper air intake openings to encourage circulation throughout the helmet.
Bell equips the M8 ULTRA with the same top air intake pattern used on compatible RS7 models, allowing drivers to use selected Bell RS7 air intake vent kits and top forced-air cooling accessories.
This compatibility makes the M8 ULTRA an excellent choice for drivers who want the flexibility to add external helmet cooling for hot-weather racing or endurance competition.
Forced-air intake kits and external cooling equipment are optional accessories and are not included unless otherwise specified.
Radio Communication and Hydration System Compatibility
Communication and hydration are important considerations for drivers competing in longer racing events.
The Bell M8 ULTRA includes integrated routing channels within its facepiece that accommodate compatible radio communication equipment and hydration systems.
These channels provide installation options for microphone wiring, communication components, drinking tubes, and hydration valves.
Unlike communication-equipped Bell RD models, the M8 ULTRA does not include a factory-integrated ZeroNoise communication system. Compatible radio and hydration accessories are available separately.
M6 Terminals for Head and Neck Restraint Systems
The Bell M8 ULTRA incorporates M6 mounting terminals designed for installation of compatible frontal head restraint (FHR) anchor hardware.
This allows the helmet to be configured for use with approved head and neck restraint systems commonly used in competitive motorsport.
Verify compatibility with your specific HANS or FHR device and use the appropriate approved anchor hardware according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Bell SRV-8 Shield and SRV-1 Pivot Compatibility
The M8 ULTRA uses Bell Racing's SRV-8 shield platform, offering compatibility with replacement shield options for different track conditions and visibility preferences.
The helmet also uses SRV-1 pivot hardware, allowing compatible replacement components to be installed when necessary.
The synthetic rubber gasket helps reduce unwanted dirt and water intrusion while maintaining a secure seal around the shield opening.
