Catlike´s 2011 MPS retention

When landing on the back of your head in a crash, helmets have a tendency to tilt and move forward towards the forehead area, leaving the back of your head exposed.  This device, together with the straps, keeps the helmet in place at all times.

This retention was designed for Catlike´s t high-end helmets range, its design ensures a perfect fit & performance under any circumstances.  It was designed from scrap with 3 goals in mind: comfort, lightness and reliability.

The retention is extremely simple to prevent mechanical issues, it is formed by just 3 parts, less parts means less problems, you could almost say this retention is bullet proof.

This is how it works: a central piece with a rail stays in a fixed position at the back of the head while 2 side pieces move along the rail to tighten or loosen the retention.  Bi-injection has been used to provide a confortable material for the parts in contact with the head as well as for the finger areas to make it easy for the rider to recognize in which point they must press to trigger the mechanism.
