Key Highlights: Purpose-built full-face helmet for young riders and small head sized adults, a segment historically served only by open-face designs New model launch; the Raider Youth Unicolor is the debut variant with additional decal editions to follow Full chin protection in addition to standard head coverage Available in two sizes: XXS (520 mm) and XS (540 mm), suited for children, teenagers, and adults with smaller head sizes 12 Unicolor options: White, Black, Cherry Red, Flame Blue, Lavender Pink, Pastel Green, Petrol Blue, Dark Pink, Chameleon Pink, Chameleon Blue, Matt Black, and Military Green Dynamic Ventilation System with Top Air Exhausts- Active channelled airflow, a step up from the basic passive vents common in this segment. Quick Release Visor with scratch-resistant coating and Quick Release Chin Strap Micro-fibre fabric liner for comfort during extended use ISI (BIS) certified Prices starting at ₹1,175 (MRP, inclusive of all taxes); prices for decal editions and online channels may vary New Delhi, 03 August 2026: STUDDS Accessories Ltd., one of the world’s leading two-wheeler helmet manufacturers, today announced the launch of the Raider Youth, a new full-face helmet model built for young riders and petite adults. Launching first in the Unicolor variant, it marks the entry of a dedicated small-size full-face helmet into the STUDDS range, with further decal editions in the pipeline. Children’s and youth helmets in India have traditionally been offered in open-face designs, which leave the chin and lower face unprotected in the event of a fall. The Raider Youth addresses this with a full chin-bar construction, extending the level of protection available to younger riders and smaller adults. It is equally suited for petite adults, including women, who have had limited full-face options in smaller head sizes. A New Model, Built for a Younger Rider The shell is modelled on adult premium full-face motorcycle helmets, giving the Raider Youth a design young riders will recognise and want to wear – a deliberate departure from the boxy, utilitarian profiles typical of most helmets in this segment. The Dynamic Ventilation System with top air exhausts actively channels airflow through the helmet, going a step beyond the basic passive vents common among youth helmets at this price. The Raider Youth is available in two compact sizes, XXS (520 mm) and XS (540 mm), covering the head circumference range typical of children, teenagers, and adults with small head size. The micro-fibre fabric liner keeps the interior comfortable during extended use. 12 Colours at Launch The debut Unicolor variant is available in 12 colours, first in the industry for this category: White, Black, Cherry Red, Flame Blue, Lavender Pink, Pastel Green, Petrol Blue, Dark Pink, Chameleon Pink, Chameleon Blue, Matt Black, and Military Green. The palette spans solid and matte finishes alongside colour-shifting chameleon options, giving riders across age groups and preferences a choice that suits them. MD Quote: Mr. Sidhartha Bhushan Khurana, Managing Director, STUDDS Accessories Ltd., said, "Young riders today are more aware of style, comfort, and safety than ever before, and parents are increasingly seeking products that offer enhanced protection without compromising on usability. The Raider Youth has been developed to address these evolving expectations through a purpose-built full-face design that delivers greater coverage and confidence for young riders. Its vibrant colour palette, modern styling, rider-focused comfort features, and trusted safety credentials have been brought together to make helmet usage both appealing and reassuring. We believe the Raider Youth will resonate strongly with young riders and their families while encouraging the habit of safe riding from an early age." Certified Safety The Raider Youth is ISI (BIS) certified. The helmet is built with a high-impact ABS outer shell and regulated-density EPS liner, engineered to absorb and distribute impact energy while remaining lightweight for younger wearers. Price and Availability The STUDDS Raider Youth is available across authorised STUDDS dealerships, STUDDS exclusive outlets, and the official online store at shop.studds.com. The Unicolor variant starting prices at ₹1,175 (MRP, inclusive of all taxes). Prices for the online channel and forthcoming decal editions may vary. *** About Studds Accessories Limited Studds Accessories Limited is the largest two-wheeler helmets player in India in terms of revenue in Fiscal 2023 and also the world’s largest two-wheeler helmet player by volume in Calendar Year 2024 (Source: CARE Report).
