Nexx is keen to promote its “made in Europe” credentials to differentiate itself from the swathe of Far Eastern produced budget lids swamping the market. The Y.100 is the brand’s new entry-level helmet, made at the firm’s Portuguese factory with a Polyfusion shell that meets ECE 22.06 standards. Although budget priced, the Y.100 does have some practical features – the quick-release visor is Pinlock ready, and there is a drop-down sun visor too. The interior is removable and washable and is lined with X.MART Dry wicking material which has anti-allergen properties. It is also ready for the fitting of an X-COM3 comms system to add phone and music capabilities. Prices start at £109.99 for the Y.100 Pure in black, with the Core version in titanium or pearl white at £139.99 and the B-Side graphic options at £169.99 – the Core and B-Side include a Pinlock 70 insert and a Go-Pro mount in the SRP.
