Leatt DBX 3.0 helmet


The DBX 3.0 is Leatt’s first foray into the open-face trail/enduro lid market. It offers good coverage, especially towards the rear, and goes beyond certification requirements when it comes to safety. Leatt’s ‘360 Turbine’ system is designed to allow some rotation of the head within the EPS liner and provide extra impact protection. The retention system tightens securely with a reassuringly tactile ratchet. It took a while to get used to the fit of the DBX 3.0, because it’s designed to sit slightly higher on the forehead than most enduro-style helmets (if worn too low, we found it caused tight points), resulting in a shallower fit. Leatt have been refreshingly transparent about their safety ratings by publishing the full certification test results of the lid on their website.
