GMS Ride Jet Helmet – Classic protection for city and country roads
For longer commutes or weekend trips, you need a helmet that provides reliable protection without carrying around unnecessary weight. The GMS Ride open-face helmet does just that – a minimalist design that doesn't distract you, but focuses on the essentials: your sense of safety. Whether you're on the motorway, navigating city traffic or using the country road for an after-work trip, this robust open-face helmet proves itself in every situation. The scratch-resistant visor can be flipped up with a simple movement, and the fastener sits securely, keeping you in place even at higher speeds. What sets the GMS Ride apart from other jet helmets is the combination of solid workmanship, practical design and honest value for money that won't surprise you.

What sets the GMS Ride jet helmet apart in practice
The polycarbonate shell has proven itself over many years. It is robust enough to absorb the impact of falls, but not so heavy that your neck becomes tense after two hours of riding. This is particularly noticeable on longer motorway journeys – after 300 kilometres, you will notice that the helmet's low weight is a real advantage. Compared to solid full-face helmets, this open-face helmet simply saves you the unnecessary weight on your neck. The scratch-resistant visor deserves its own chapter here. In practice, flipping it up is an intuitive movement – perfect for stop-and-go city traffic or when you want to quickly talk to someone at a traffic light. The flip-down function also means that you can get air immediately when needed. Anyone who has ever sat in a helmet in stifling heat and longed for fresh air knows why this is not a luxury. The clear, scratch-resistant material maintains its clarity – even after many seasons. A feature that is often overlooked: the glasses channel. For those of us who need it – and that's a lot of us – it makes the difference between a comfortable ride and a headache. Your glasses stay in place without the arms pressing into your temples. GMS understands that when it comes to motorcycling, it's all about the details. What I particularly like about the GMS Ride is that you can remove the inner lining and cheek pads and wash them. After a rainy day or a particularly hot summer ride, this is a practical solution – you lift out the pads, throw them in the washing machine, and your helmet smells fresh again. No compromises, no strange odours that linger. The ratchet fastener with Microlock system is simple but effective. The fastener can be opened and closed quickly with gloves on – no fiddling around with complicated systems. The helmet sits securely, does not slip and stays firmly in place even when riding at speed.
