Morning Pride Ben 2 Low Rider Helmet, NFPA 2013 Certified

The NEW & IMPROVED Ben Franklin 2 “Low Rider” delivers a lower center of gravity and is the most durable composite helmet you can buy because the color molded throughout "FYR-Glass" Shell (including ridges) resists chipping, cracking and peeling far better than even Kevlar reinforced shells.

The Low Rider helmets offer a newly designed suspension and headband cover system that allows both the Ben 2 to ride lower on your head which lowers the center of gravity therefore improving balance while it also reduces strain on the head, neck and shoulders. The long term result is that the Ben 2 is the most cost effective, lightweight composite traditional helmet. It offers comfortable fit, balanced feel, low head ride and light weight of "old" traditional helmets, but with NFPA required performance levels.

PART OF THE MORNING PRIDE SERIES

For over 20 years, the iconic Morning Pride Ben 2 helmet with EZ-Flips™ has had a particularly dedicated following. Here’s why…

Features and Benefits:

  • EZ-FLIPS™
  • The 2013 edition of NFPA 1971 raised the requirements for helmet-mounted faceshields below the brim. Our team worked arduously to develop a new generation of EZ-Flips™ that would meet the rigorous new criteria. The new EZ-Flips™ were born...outperforming those tough requirements, making the Ben 2 the only helmet with flip-down face protection certified to NFPA 1971, current edition.

STRONGEST SHELL:

  • Did you know that the Ben 2 helmet offers the strongest shell on the market? The Ben 2 is made of FYR-Glass - a proprietary custom-blended material found only in Morning Pride helmets. Our testing shows that FYR-Glass helmets are 39% more resistant to impact penetration than conventional fiberglass helmets and offer superior heat performance.

LOW PROFILE:

  • With a low center of gravity, the Ben 2 also rides low, resulting in better balance and significantly reduced neck strain.

  • Plus, the Ben 2 provides a 6-position suspension with one-piece headband and ratchet assembly that can be adjusted without disassembly.
