A helmet that has long been a favourite with paraglider, hang glider and microlight pilots all over the world, for its lightness, style and certified safety. But technology is constantly developing, and so Icaro have completely redesigned Nerv with new features to offer even higher levels of performance, protection and comfort. Icaro have recalibrated its internal ventilation, added an inner cap in the high-tech fabric Coolmax, and optimized sizes with two new outer shells. Characteristics that remain unchanged are the Italian design, the appealing style and colours, and the quality of a helmet made exclusively in Italy.

For Nerv 2.0, Icaro have introduced two outer shells, a larger version for sizes 60 and 61, and a smaller version for sizes 54-55, 56-57 and 58-59. The principal reason for this change was to increase safety by means of a higher thickness for the inner polystyrene shell. The smaller outer shell is 222 mm in width, the larger version is 236 mm in width. A minimal difference, just 14 mm. But this was essential for passing the stringent impact tests required for EN 966 certification.

Icaro have retained the 3mm-thick polycarbonate outer shell, which is both exceptionally light and very strong.>

The new rotary size regulator can be used to modify not only the helmet’s internal circumference, but also its position with respect to the back of the neck. It is simple to adjust and the operation can be performed directly by the pilot. Comfort is ensured by padding on the size regulator’s inner surface.

Icaro have introduced a cap in the high-technology fabric Coolmax, which increases comfort by wicking perspiration away from the head and enabling it to evaporate rapidly, keeping you cool and dry.

Every Nerv 2.0 helmet has a label that guarantees the use of this famous new textile, which is also soft to touch and so makes the helmet even more comfortable.
