Leatt has developed a new helmet and clothing collection in collaboration with MTB racers Gregor Egger and Lukas Baum from Speed-Company-Racing. The new products include jackets, waistcoats, jerseys, bib shorts and gloves for men and women. The target group: endurance athletes from the XC, marathon and gravel sectors.

Leatt has also taken this experience to heart when developing the new Endurance collection. According to Leatt, the result is a perfect compromise between comfort, durability and functionality. And the look is right too - at least we think so.
The new Leatt Endurance collection in a nutshell:
Highly technologised and ready to race: the new endurance helmets from Leatt
The two helmets from the MTB Endurance collection are equipped with 360° Turbine technology. According to the manufacturer, this technology reduces the acceleration of the brain in the event of an impact by up to 30 per cent. The system is even said to reduce rotational acceleration by up to 40 per cent. In addition, the moulded-in power bridge ensures an even distribution of impact forces. All these features reduce the risk of concussion in the event of a fall.
Maxiflow air channels also ensure effective air circulation. The helmet can be put on and taken off quickly and easily with the Fidlock buckle. Thanks to a dock with an anti-slip function, goggles can be securely fastened to the helmet if they don't sit on the nose. Leatt packs all these technologies into a lightweight polymer compound shell. The helmets are available in sizes S (51-55 centimetres head circumference), M (55 to 59 centimetres head circumference) and L (59-63 centimetres head circumference). The basic model MTB Endurance 3.0 costs 149.99 euros and weighs 350 grams in size S according to the manufacturer. The lighter MTB Endurance 4.0 model costs 189.99 euros and is said to weigh 315 grams in size S >> e.g. at Decathlon available.
