Givi was first formed in 1978 by Giuseppe Visenzi, a MotoGP pilot for a few seasons who won third place in the 1969 Championship of the 350cc class. From there he quit the world of racing in exchange for setting up his own business creating motorbike accessories.

The Givi 50.5 Tridion Raptor is a full-face helmet made from thermopolymer material. It features a visor with predisposition for Pinlock lenses, a visible smoked sun visor inside the visor, and front air intakes for ventilation: two upper and one on the chin guard. The rear extractor helps keep the air flowing smoothly, and the quick release micrometric strap makes for a quick and comfortable attachment & detachment. The interior is constructed from a hypoallergenic fabric, which is fully removable and washable because…you know…face sweat!

The Raptor comes with a chinstrap screen and is available in sizes XS-XXL, colour choices being Black/Neon Yellow, matt Titanium/Black & a White/Black/Red design. The full-face helmet is regarded as the best style for full protection, with the main body of the helmet covering the head, thus protecting it from all angles except of the visor opening. The Raptor is suitable for on the road, sport and touring.

The Givi 50.5 Tridon Raptor is a great mid-range helmet: light enough for a full day’s wear and a very comfortable interior. It provides an adequate visual with both the visor and interior sun-visor, which easily pops out of place when you don’t need it, providing you with exactly what you pay for. This helmet, ready to be used with GIVI I303S Bluetooth intercom system, is available in sizes ranging from XS to XXL and retails at prices from RRP £105.90 to £109.90.
