Extra signs UK and Ireland distribution of HJC helmet label

Extra UK has picked up the distribution rights to the HJC helmet brand in the UK and Ireland.

As seen adorned to the Lotto Soudal UCI Pro Tour team, including André Greipel – winner of Stage 1 at the Tour Down Under – HJC will be a feature of the coming CoreBike show, starting this weekend at WhittleBury Hall.

Those heading along should look out for the brand’s new high-end road focused Furion and IBEX helmets, among other lines. The Furion is an Aero focused road helmet with ventilation that strengthens the speed of air flow, while the IBEX has additional ventilation to balance air resistance with exhaust ventilation. Both helmets have been extensively tested in HJC’s own wind tunnels.

HJC commented on signing Extra: “We are pleased to reveal Extra UK as our exclusive distribution partner in the UK and Ireland.

“Extra UK have a strong history of distributing quality brands within the cycling market and we are looking forward to a long and successful relationship as we progress our commitment to working with riders at the pinnacle of the sport.”
