You can't judge a book by its cover. These words apply to helmets as well as books, and are especially pertinent to Icon's Airframe helmet with the Burn Baby Burn design. Sure, it boasts a bikini-clad babe riding a spark plug like Major Kong on the falling bomb, but it's also an intelligently designed helmet.
The Airframe helmet's shell is constructed of a composite of fiberglass, dyneema, and carbon fiber with a dual-density EPS lining. This helmet is DOT and Snell approved. You don't get a better surrogate skull than that.
Icon's Proshield provides a large eye port that is optically correct and locks into place. Supposedly, this shield will stay locked down in a 150-mph head-first crash. This isn't the kind of thing you want to experiment with, so let's take their word for that. In order to prevent such an incident, the Proshield is fog-free and UV protective. You can also get the Airframe's shield in a variety of tints.
Excellent ventilation will keep you comfortable while you ride, and the HydraDry liner will prevent your helmet from getting funky.
Now that you know how much the Airframe has to offer, you can appreciate its substance as well as the ample endowment of the graphic. Some folks would consider the design of this helmet to limit it to male customers, but the ladies can also enjoy the bold moves of this electric jockey and consider her to be an ambassador of their inner vixen.
If you'd rather play it nice than naughty, check out the KBC TK-8 Heart Helmet.
