Roof boxer desmo review.
It s hard to believe that the roof boxer was first unleashed on the world way back in 1995.
This roof helmet might not perform quite as well as a dedicated full or open faced helmet but they re not far off.
The roof always has been in our view an urban style helmet or at least a helmet for shorter weekend rides.
There were very few changes over the decade or so that the helmet was in production it still is by the way.
The boxer v8 range of crash helmets are well built cool looking and incredibly versatile.
It s well finished and feels good quality.
They have a good safety rating and owners are generally very happy with them.
Sharp 4 star rating.
The roof desmo is a very clever helmet that looks pretty cool and imposing too.
It s not for everyone and while its looks may be polarizing it is a popular helmet with webbikeworld readers and many owners throughout the world.
Like the original roof boxer review the boxer v8 is as quirky as they come.

The chin guard can be moved from full to open faced positions and back with just one hand.
The boxer was dropped several times nothing too drastic more like desktop height and accidentally externally doused with gas once.
It s a helmet for those who love the idea of an open face but who accept that occasionally a full face makes more sense.
It s always been a brilliant concept and this is the ultimate version.
It s dual homologated meaning that it s been tested and approved as both an open faced and full faced crash helmet.
Coming up from the south and gusts were up to 30mph.
