Kali Protectives
Where advancements in safety can be made, Kali makes them. What started in a test lab roughly a decade ago as a quest to evolve traditional helmet construction is now the benchmark in helmet engineering. They call it Composite Fusion. We call it the future.
Composite Fusion is Kali’s proprietary in-molding technology that merges the helmet’s foam and shell together, creating a thinner, lighter bike helmet with increased dynamic range and better impact management. Because there isn’t an air gap between the liner and the shell, the helmet is stronger. The multi-density foam absorbs g-forces more efficiently and fits more comfortably since the softer foam is next to your head. Another benefit of Composite Fusion? Less torque on your neck while riding.
At Gear.com, we've long been fans of Kali's half-shell and full-face helmets and have been thoroughly impressed on many long rides with the lightweight performance of the Maraka and the bomber construction of the Maya. And if you've ever spent much time around big hit downhill rides or comps, you've surely seen Kali's popular rasta-colored knee pads and elbow guards. The flex and protection of Kali body armor have won fans from pro to amateur and everywhere in between. To take a design example from their helmets, Kali's intuitive head sizing mechanism is comfortable and customizable—without bolting a big dial onto the back of your skull.
In a bike world typically dominated by a few common brands, it's always nice to show up at the trailhead with a new favorite like Kali Protectives that delivers a better level of performance.
