The Baden-Württemberg-based manufacturer is launching the Pacer 2.0 as an addition to the previous Pacer model. The new model is aimed at touring cyclists and commuters. The Air Channel Technology is designed to ensure sufficient ventilation despite reduced ventilation openings. An optional rear light can be retrofitted for road use.

Equipment and construction

The CFS adjustment system allows stepless height adjustment over 360 degrees. A Steplock lock secures the adjustment. The strap guide makes it easier to put the helmet on. A C-clip distributor is used to adjust the straps. Reflective details increase visibility. The insect protection net is foamed in and the visor can be removed.

Cratoni offers the Pacer 2.0 in two sizes. The S-M version covers head circumferences from 54 to 58 centimetres and weighs 265 grams. The L-XL size fits head circumferences from 58 to 61 centimetres and weighs 285 grams. The CleanTex pads are washable and antibacterial treated.
