The VALECO is a modern, aerodynamic, and perfectly ventilated helmet, weighing only about 30 grams more than its bigger sibling, HJC’s Ibex. The helmet’s 12 ventilation holes will keep your head cool in any situation, from the spring classics to the hot climbs in the Alps during the summer season.
Top class and world tours proven!
With a Lotto Soudal design, this edition of the Valeco Helmet is sure to turn heads and has all the performance attributes you need for racing and training.
It's light, aerodynamic, and well-ventilated uses In-Mold technology for protection and offers plenty of adjustabilities to fit.

Tech Specs

Wind Tunnel Tested
HJC helmets are tested in the laboratory as well as in “real life” to meet the highest quality standards. HJC is one of the very few helmet companies equipped with its own state-of-the-art wind tunnel laboratory to test aerodynamics, ventilation, noise, and more. The HJC wind tunnel test lab measures the air forces in a variety of riding conditions to improve helmet performance.

Aerodynamic Design
Coming from MotoGP race-helmet design experience, HJC designers and engineers have become experts in aerodynamics and wind-ventilated helmets. Aero helmets, as the word implies, are more aerodynamic than the conventional racing bike helmet, but with compromised ventilation performance. With HJC Helmets, this compromise is very much reduced. HJC offers probably the best-ventilated semi-aero helmet on the market…. Save Watts with HJC Helmets!
-
Ventury Dynamics
In order to achieve maximum ventilation, a technical adaptation of Bernoulli’s principle is applied to HJC’s aerodynamically enhanced models. In motion, the rate of surface flow generally increases as it progresses toward the rear of the helmet. Through pressure differences, cool air from the frontal intake is extracted through the rear vent for internal heat dissipation, giving the cyclist optimum ventilation and perfect airflow while riding.
-
In-Mold Construction
In-mold is a method consisting in bonding the EPS together with the outer polycarbonate shell for greater structural strength. This improves the rider’s protection by providing a compact reinforcement and gives the product a perfect finish.
-
Internal Reinforcement structure
The helmets are reinforced with an internal frame integrated into the EPS, the skeletal frame not only holds the helmet in one piece but also makes it stronger and more resistant to protect your head in the event of a collision.
-
Advanced Air Channel System
A certain amount of air passes through the front air-intake port, then circulates inside the helmet, and finally exits through the exhaust port. The internal airflow is then increased to cool the head and evacuate the heat.
-
Feather Light
HJC bicycle helmets are designed and engineered through precise measures to have the lightest weight possible. Density, placement, shapes, and materials all play a part in weight optimization.
