HJC RPHA 12 Venom 3 Marvel MC1SF Black / Red is an ECE 22.06 premium full-face sport motorcycle helmet for riders who want aerodynamic stability, wide vision and a secure performance fit. Its PIM EVO shell combines carbon-aramid fibre, carbon fibre, glass fibre, organic non-woven fabric and natural linen fibre. This officially licensed Marvel edition applies the Venom 3 design to the MC1SF Black and Red colourway.

Who It's For

The RPHA 12 suits sporty road riders, fast touring riders and track-day users who prefer a performance-focused full-face design, a Double D-ring fastener and a wide eye port. It does not use an internal sun visor. HJC supplies both clear and smoke external HJ-42 visors, allowing riders to choose a visor suitable for the light conditions and permitted use.

Key Benefits

• Current safety approval: ECE 22.06 certification for road use.

• Anti-fog support included: supplied with a clear Pinlock 120 XLT MaxVision DKS495 insert.
• Airflow: HJC's ACS Advanced Channeling Ventilation System manages airflow through the helmet.
