Compact is the new top-of-the-range flip-up helmet from the AGV collection. This model is as much intended for touring as for urban use and comes richly equipped as standard. This makes it leader in its segment for comfort, size, safety and functionality. Thus, this helmet is ideal for those wanting the good look and safety of a full face helmet and the handiness of an open face version. This solution also boasts some first class technical innovations.

Comfort comes top of the list. The internal components are covered by three patents. The sanitized Lycra® crown pad features breathable micro-perforations and has a concave three-dimensional layout pre-formed as a single component to match the exact shape of the rider's head. There is also no stitching in the contact area. The removable, washable Dry-Comfort cheek pads ensure excellent protection against draughts and noise.

This helmet is P/J homologated thanks to having passed the relevant tests with the chin guard closed (as a full face helmet) and with the chin guard open (as a jet helmet). To release the chin guard when in full face mode, the rider has to press a single button downwards. This type of mechanism prevents the chin guard from accidentally opening in the event of an impact.

The Compact has been designed to accept the new integrated communication platform SHARE.
