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.

The most effective helmet is one that fits properly. To measure your head, have an assistant use a dressmaker's tape or a piece of string to measure the circumference of your head. Start at a point about an inch above your eyebrows, looping around the back of your head at the point that results in the largest measurement, and finally around to the front again. It's a good idea to take two or three measurements to make sure you have the largest one.

Stilo Helmets ST5 FN ZERO Ultra 8860-2018 ABP Carbon Helmet
FIA 8860 Certification Valid Thru 2032 for the ST5 N Zero 8860 ABP Carbon Fiber Helmet
Stilo's Most Advanced Auto Racing Helmet
The ST5 FN Ultralight helmet was designed in conjunction with F1 driver Valtteri Bottas. This helmet takes our Zero class to the next level, by adding extra ventilation holes and lightening every aspect of the helmet, this helmet takes claim to the lightest 8860 ABP helmet on the market. With top safety in mind this rating includes an ABP rating. The Advanced Ballistic Protection (ABP) features reinforced areas above the shield opening, which is 10mm lower and narrower than non-ABP models. In short, this is the highest specification helmet ever developed.
Ultra Light Weight But Heavy On Features
The Stilo ST5 FN ZERO Ultra 8860-2018 ABP is the lightest-weight carbon fiber racing helmet on the market. While it lacks the integrated side ports of the Stilo Helmets ST5 GT 8860-2018 carbon helmet, it can still be outfitted with top forced air and a helmet eject system. The innovative design incorporates mounting and routing for these options at the time of manufacture, so integration is sleek and seamless with nothing hanging down or otherwise getting in the way. When not in use, you don't even know these features are there.
Looking for increased visibility? The Stilo Helmets ST5 FN ZERO 8860-2018 has a taller, lower-set eye port, giving you better visibility while not compromising safety. Stilo Shields use a center pinch-clip to make opening and closing easy, even while wearing Nomex racing gloves.
