HJC Helmets Unveils the New Shadow the Hedgehog™ RPHA 12 Helmet

Today, SEGA of America, Inc. and HJC Helmets, announced the release of a brand-new Shadow the Hedgehog themed helmet, following the release of the Sonic the Hedgehog™ helmet. Fans can now bring their favorite brooding hedgehog along with them on their own Dark Rider adventures.

The RPHA 12 helmet features Shadow the Hedgehog's distinctive mischievous smile, including his trademark red eyes, complemented by a striking black and red color scheme that captures his fearless and intense personality.

The transition from the RPHA 11 to the RPHA 12 showcases HJC's commitment to continuous improvement. The RPHA 12 is designed for both racetrack and street use, making it a choice for riders looking for exceptional performance in various riding conditions. The new RPHA 12 helmet is lightweight, which will play a role in the all-new aerodynamics of the helmet. The new aerodynamics will help with less wind resistance and head movement, allowing riders to experience less drag. Additionally, the new vents keep the rider cool and help prevent fogging.
