This article is a presentation of the **CKX Tranz 1.5**.  It is the **modular helmet** that has it all to be a major asset in you equipment during the **coming winter season**.

# Presentation of the CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV

In the family of **CKX helmets**, the **Tranz 1.5** is the **top of the line** CKX **modular** helmet. Very well liked by **snowmobile, ATV and UTV enthusiasts**, this helmet is a charmer with its modular helmet features but with all the advantages of a full-face helmet, such as the **retractable visor and its rubber breath deflector**. It is available in over eight graphic designs in a wide variety of colours from the exuberant fluorescent yellow to the plain matt black.

# CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV – Visors

The **CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV** is available with the **double visor or double electric visor** for those who have a recurring problem with fogging up on their trail outings. The plastic visor has **anti-fog and anti-scratch treatment** allowing you to fully enjoy your experience.  As for the retractable amber visor, the open and close **mechanism** is on the left side of the helmet and **easy to use**, even with a pair of frozen gloves. It is easily interchangeable if you prefer the dark smoked visor.

# CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV – Modular helmet and mechanism

The **CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV mechanism** to open is on the inside of the **chin strap near your chin**.  The reason for this is to allow you to press the release button and open the helmet in a simple fluid motion.

# CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV - Comfort, size and weight

I found the **CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV** very **comfortable** compared with other **modular helmets** available on the market. The inner linings keep your head warm during the cold and beautiful winter days. In addition, the **breath deflector** and the **rubber chin guard** are patent pending, and they hug the facial curves better than other conventional neoprene deflectors. This helps keep the water vapour far from your face at all times. And, the **retractable visor** interacts perfectly with the deflector to allow you to ride with an open visor!

For the fit of the **CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV**, I chose the size that seemed to conform to industry standards. I wear a Large and it is the size that gave me the most comfort and safety. But I recommend that you try it on before buying it as each head has its own shape!

The Tranz 1.5 weighs close to **1850 grams**. This may seem high for a helmet, but those who love long outings are ready to choose a slightly heavier helmet which gives them endless comfort, and features that you can’t live without once you have had them.

# CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV - Colours, graphics and  certification

As mentioned above, the **CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV** is available in **eight different graphic** designs. In total, that represents **34 colour choices** available to you when you are choosing this helmet. For safety certifications, it complies with or is superior to DOT Standard FMVSS218.

# Target group for the CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV?

This helmet is a **must for passionate trail drivers** who want a quality product to face the rigours of winter during long periods. Usually, for this type of **experienced** and **passionate** riders, whether on **snowmobiles**, **ATVs** or **UTVs**, the days are long and exhausting and log many kilometres on machines in areas very often far from rest areas to warm up. This is why you must be **confident with your equipment** at all times to be able to concentrate on the road. If you see yourself as this type of passionate rider, the **CKX Tranz 1.5 RSV** is definitely a helmet to consider for the coming winter season!
