We don’t usually launch a brand-new lid in the fall, but the RKT 240-Series has been such a runaway hit in Canada that we couldn’t wait for spring. Meet the RKT 240-SERIES REACTOR™—a fresh graphic on our best-selling helmet platform, landing just in time for those crisp, golden rides when the bugs are gone and the roads are all yours. If you loved the Solar Flare, this one’s the same recipe of comfort, performance, and value—now turned up visually and available in four new colourways: Red, Red/Yellow, Pink, and Grey. Yes, all four are in stock (for now).
Why has the RKT 240 taken off like a loon at sunrise? It delivers proper specs riders actually use, not fluff. The shell is an A.T.P.A.™ Advanced Thermo-Poly Alloy that meets the latest ECE 22-06 standard, so you’re not just looking good—you’re legit covered. Inside, the fit skews intermediate oval, and the Dry Tech® liner is moisture-wicking, removable, and machine-washable. Translation: warm fall ride, cool head, easy clean. Weight is a tidy ~1400–1450 gdepending on size, spread across two shell sizes to keep the profile sleek. It secures with a Quick-Connect chin strap, because fumbling in the cold isn’t it.
Fall riding in Canada can change faster than a May long-weekend forecast, so venting and visibility matter. The REACTOR rides on the 240’s Cross Link™ Variable Flow system with 10 total vents (6 intake up front, 4 exhaust out back) to keep air moving on those weirdly warm afternoons—and shut it down when the temp dips. Up front you get our Lightspeed™ quick-change shield system, plus a Clear Cut™ optically correct, anti-scratch, UV-resistant faceshield—and yes, the dark-tint shield is included in the box for those low-sun, leaf-peeping days. For “sun’s out, cloud’s out, sun’s out” riding, the Single-Stage internal sun visor is a thumb flick away. Canadian convenience, eh.
Fog? Not today. The REACTOR’s shield is Pinlock® 70-ready, and we stock the RKT 240-Series Pinlock® 70 Lenses so you can see clear from first frost to last ride. Pop one in and you’ll wonder how you ever rode shoulder season without it. Coffee breath is optional; fogged visor is not.
And because it’s a Joe Rocket Canada® helmet dropped for Canadian riding, the details line up with how we actually ride: practical price point, durable finish that shrugs off real use, and graphics that look mint on everything from naked bikes to ADV rigs. The new REACTOR™ graphic adds just enough attitude without screaming for attention—think “clean and fast” instead of “loud for the sake of loud.” With four colours to choose from, pairing to your bike or jacket is as easy as grabbing a double-double.
We’ll level with you: we don’t expect these to sit around. The last RKT 240 graphic drop proved there are a lot of riders looking for a legit ECE 22-06 full-face with real features and a fair price, and this is that—again. If a new lid was on your fall checklist, or you just want to roll into next season with a helmet that does October and July equally well, the RKT 240-SERIES REACTOR™ is your move. Grab your colour, add a Pinlock®, and go make the most of the season while it’s still playing nice.
Ride safe. Ride warm. And ride something that looks as sharp as the air feels.
