PCI Race Radios TRAX PCI Klim R1 Helmet Wired Medium Matte Black

If you're looking to kick your off-road experience up a notch, the Klim R1 Fresh Air TRAX PCI Helmet is where it’s at. Seriously, this helmet is making waves in the desert, and for good reason. The first thing you'll notice is the top air fresh air inlet, which does wonders for keeping the dust at bay while you’re tearing through the trails. It's like a breath of fresh air—literally.

Now, let’s talk about the fit. This medium-sized helmet sits comfortably without feeling bulky. It’s got a polycarbonate shell that not only seals out dust but also absorbs impacts like a champ. So, whether you're cruising through rocky terrain or just enjoying a leisurely ride, you can feel secure. Plus, it’s DOT approved and ECE 22-05 certified, so you know it meets safety standards for recreational use (though it's not meant for racing, just a heads up).

One of my favorite features is the internal drop-down sun visor. It’s a game changer when the sun is blazing down and you need to shield your eyes. And don’t worry about visibility; the EZ-Wipe optically-clear face shield ensures you have a crystal-clear view of the road ahead. Plus, it comes with a dust skirt to keep the grit out, which is a lifesaver in those really dusty conditions.

On the tech side, this helmet is wired for Trax Stereo Intercom Systems with a 5-conductor grey plug, complete with a custom PCI Trax setup that includes a microphone and large, high-watt speakers. You’ll be jamming out or chatting with your buddies without missing a beat. And if you’re worried about moisture, the Trax H2NO water-resistant pigtail has got you covered.

Weighing in at just 3.8 lbs when wired with the fresh air system, it’s surprisingly light for all the features packed in. The matte black finish gives it a sleek look, too. Overall, the Klim R1 is built for those who want to enjoy the ride while staying comfortable and safe. If you’re serious about your off-road adventures, this helmet is definitely worth checking out.

What is PCI Race Radios?

PCI Race Radios has been the leader in off-road and racing communications since 1972. The company takes pride in its extensive field testing, competitive prices, unparalleled customer service, and simplified packages that make communications easy with unmatched support even after the sale. With more than 45 years of experience in the off-road racing industry, PCI Race Radios develops and tests all of its own products. The brand has a full-service technical repair shop at its headquarters in Long Beach, California, and provides trackside, mobile services to its desert enthusiasts at off-road races. PCI Race Radios supports the ASA, CORVA, ORBA, and the San Diego Off-Road Coalition. It also sponsors District 37, SCORE, SNORE, MDR, MORE, CORR, BITD, and provides desert racers with the Weatherman Relay Service. 

PCI Race Radios is a family-owned company that is dedicated to taking the time to both “race and play.” The company tests its products on dirt bikes, motorcycles, quads, rock crawlers, race cars, Raptors, RZRs, Mavericks, and boats. It can, therefore, thoroughly understand consumers’ needs and offer hands-on recommendations from experience.

Who is Behind PCI Race Radios?

PCI Race Radios was started in 1972 when Bob Steinberger put communications in the vehicles of Bill Stroppe, Joe MacPherson and Walker Evans. At the 1974 Mint 400, Steinberger sent up three weather balloons with 500 feet of coax attached to them. It was that day when the first successful radio relay from a pit was made. Since then, Bob’s iconic status has spanned through nearly half a century of work with his communications brand, PCI Race Radios.

Bob Steinberger passed away in 2017, handing over the company to his son Scott, who has been racing since 1983. Scott Steinberger understands what goes into racing and the importance of quality (communication) products that help get you to the finish line.
