We were invited by Kask, to Bergamo, Italy for a Factory Tour! Kask showed us around their testing facility, including a first look at their new Defender helmet and how they have been rigorously testing it with all kinds of safety checks. Not only is the Defender strong but it's incredibly light! We sat down with the guys at Kask to talk design and hear how they're managed to shed the grams whilst not compromising on safety!
