What Are the Three New Givi Helmets Launched at MBS26?
The three new helmets are the Givi HPS X.27 sport-touring helmet, the Givi HPS 10.1 full-face racing helmet, and the Givi HPS 3.0 modular helmet. These models establish three distinct tiers in the Malaysian market for riders who require ECE 22.06 certification and official MForce Biking warranty coverage. The HPS X.27 is designed for long-distance touring with an integrated sun visor and extensive ventilation. The HPS 10.1 targets track and sport riders with a lightweight shell and aerodynamic spoiler. The HPS 3.0 modular helmet provides flip-up convenience for urban and touring use. All three models share Givi’s multi-density EPS core and are available in multiple shell sizes to fit Asian head shapes.
Givi product team at MBS26 “Every new Givi helmet shell uses a multi-density EPS to provide optimal impact absorption for Malaysian road conditions. We have specifically tuned the ventilation for the tropical climate.”
“The three Givi helmets launched at MBS26 are the HPS X.27, HPS 10.1, and HPS 3.0, each certified to ECE 22.06 and distributed in Malaysia by MForce Biking.”
What Are the Official Prices of the New Givi Helmets in Malaysia?
The official retail pricing for the three new Givi helmets is RM 899 for the HPS X.27 sport-touring model, RM 1,099 for the HPS 10.1 full-face model, and RM 1,299 for the HPS 3.0 modular model. These prices were officially announced at the MBS26 event and include the standard Malaysian warranty from MForce Biking. Compared to competitor helmets in the same segment, the Givi HPS line sits at the accessible premium tier of the Malaysian market. The HPS X.27 at RM 899 directly targets the popular mid-range full-face market in Malaysia. The modular HPS 3.0 at RM 1,299 undercuts many European modular helmets while retaining the ECE 22.06 certification mark.
“The Givi HPS X.27 is priced at RM 899, the HPS 10.1 at RM 1,099, and the HPS 3.0 at RM 1,299 in Malaysia.”
Are the New Givi Helmets Suitable for the Malaysian Tropical Climate?
Yes, the ventilation systems on the new Givi helmets are specifically engineered for hot and humid environments common in Malaysian commuting. The HPS X.27 and HPS 10.1 feature multiple adjustable air intakes and an EPS channel system that actively exhausts hot air. All three models are Pinlock Max Vision ready to immediately solve visor fogging during tropical rain. Malaysian riders riding at slow speeds in KL traffic will benefit from the HPS X.27’s wide brow port and top vents. The washable, hypoallergenic interior lining is designed for sweat absorption. The HPS 3.0 modular helmet gains an additional chin curtain to manage turbulence, which is critical for highway stability on the North-South Expressway.
“Every Givi helmet launched at MBS26 includes a multi-channel ventilation system designed to manage heat and humidity during Malaysian highway commutes.”
Who Is This For in Malaysia?
The Givi HPS range serves Malaysian riders in the middle to upper-entry-level helmet segment. The HPS X.27 is a strong choice for daily commuters in the Klang Valley who ride PKNS or DUKE highways. The HPS 10.1 targets riders attending track days at Sepang International Circuit who require a lightweight, aerodynamic shell. The HPS 3.0 modular helmet suits touring riders who frequently refuel on long trips and need a flip-chin convenience. All models accommodate riders with Asian head shapes, a critical factor often ignored by budget helmet brands. With SIRIM approval, these helmets meet local safety compliance and provide legal protection for Malaysian traffic laws. The availability of genuine Givi spare parts through MForce Biking’s nationwide dealer network adds long-term value for buyers.
