Roux Helmets — Authorised Australasian Distributor, Dealer & Importer

Harris Race Radios is the Authorised Australasian Distributor, Dealer and Importer for Roux Helmets — your direct source for genuine Italian-made Roux products in New Zealand and Australia. We stock the full current Roux range for Speedway, MEGA, endurance, circuit racing, rally, karting, and off-road motorsport.

All helmets are personally selected and recommended by Aaron Harris — Barcelona 24 Hour class winner, Bathurst competitor, MSNZ Licence Examiner for helmets, racewear, FHR and HANS, and motorsport race engineer.

Made in Italy by Pininfarina

Every Roux helmet is designed and manufactured in Italy by Pininfarina — the legendary Italian design house behind some of the world's most iconic race cars. In a market flooded with helmets manufactured in China and badged with European-sounding names, Roux is the real thing. Italian quality, accessible price, no compromises on where it's made.

Current Roux Helmet Range — SA2025

Roux R1-F SA2025 — Full Comms Fiberglass Helmet

The flagship Roux motorsport helmet for Speedway, MEGA, endurance, circuit racing, and rally. SA2025 certified, made in Italy, with integrated radio communications (noise-cancelling mic and speaker pods), built-in drink system, and pre-fitted HANS anchor posts. The R1-F (F = Full Comms) is the right choice for any driver who needs to communicate with their team.

Roux R1-N SA2025 — Fiberglass Helmet (No Comms)

The same premium Italian fiberglass shell and SA2025 homologation as the R1-F, without the factory-fitted comms package. Speaker-ready for one-way receive systems including NitroBee, Quin Tracks, and GT Members. The R1-N (N = No Comms) is for drivers who don't want to run communications at all — if you already have a radio system, you still need the R1-F.

Roux R1-F GT SA2020 — Matte Black with Peak Visor (Clearance)

The R1-F in GT configuration — peak visor instead of shield, full comms, drink tube, and HANS posts. SA2020 / FIA 8859-2015 certified. Clearance pricing — limited stock remaining.

Roux R1-F SA2020 — Full Comms Fiberglass Helmet (Clearance)

Previous-generation R1-F, SA2020 / FIA 8859-2015 certified. Full comms, drink tube, HANS posts. Clearance pricing — limited stock remaining. For SA2025 certification see the current R1-F above.

Roux by Pininfarina Karting Helmet — CIK-FIA & Snell CMR/CMS

Italian-designed composite karting helmet certified to CIK-FIA and Snell CMR/CMS standards. Includes clear and dark smoke FIA-certified visors, extra gasket seal, and the Roux RELEASE emergency helmet removal system. Available XS to XXL for junior and senior karters.

Roux Helmet & HANS Bundles

Roux Visors, Peaks & Accessories

We stock the full range of Roux visors and peaks — clear, light smoke, dark smoke, amber/yellow, and iridium blue — plus helmet bags, cheek pads, coil cord adapters, and more.

SA2025 — What You Need to Know

The Snell SA2025 standard is the latest and highest current Snell rating for motorsport helmets, offering improved impact protection over SA2020. SA2025 helmets are required or strongly recommended for MSNZ and Motorsport Australia sanctioned events from 2025 onwards — check your specific event regulations. Aaron Harris is an MSNZ Licence Examiner and can confirm compliance for your licence category and event.
