Back in October 2007, the first Pavillon helmet by Les Ateliers Ruby appeared in a shop off La Rue Saint-Honore in Paris.
A year and a half after that, Jerome Coste unveiled his second creation: the Belvedere helmet, with a retro-futuristic visor.
Over five years, a run of new collections have been released with these two models interpreted into 286 versions, as well as into limited editions and also a few one-off pieces.
Today, for their landmark anniversary, the family is growing again with the arrival of the Ruby Castel, intended to provide users with even greater protection.
Jerome Coste envisioned this as a full-face version of the classic Pavillon helmet, refined and made deliberately without a visor*, to be worn with glasses.
Castel: when Evel Knievel meets James Hunt on Friday the 13th!
A helmet with character and soul that will leave no one unstirred.
Only the wide chin piece alters the original shape designed to reflect the image of the full-face helmet we all have in our collective unconscious.
From today the Castel can be discovered in our Paris shop just off La Rue Herold, and also throughout the world in around a hundred official Ruby dealers who run for this strongheaded.
* The Eclipse peak currently available for the Pavillon helmets fits the Castel Helmet.
A full-face version intended for superior speed will also be unveiled in the first semester of 2013.
