Midnight Racer helmet by FCR Original - Limited edition with custom paint and hand-stitched camel leather trim
The Midnight Racer helmet makes a simple graphic statement: a deep, glossy navy blue, crossed by a wide central black band framed by two fine white pinstripes. The composition holds together through the precision of its proportions and the quality of execution, with no overstatement. A direct, distance-readable silhouette that works as well on a classic neo-retro build as on a strong café racer.
The helmet is built on the Hedon Heroine Racer 2.0 base, hand-painted in the FCR Original French workshop. The craftsmen apply their signature palette: pearl varnish, deep navy blue, controlled contrast with the black band and the white pinstripes. The mastery of gesture and the manual finishing mean each piece carries its own micro-variations, the very signature of its uniqueness.
The most singular detail of the Midnight Racer lies on the trim: a tan camel leather hand-stitched with contrasting visible stitching. This material choice brings an artisanal warmth to the graphic design of the shell and immediately distinguishes the helmet within the range. The natural leather develops its own patina over the kilometres, accentuating the personal character of the helmet.
The FCR Original signature is engraved on a chin plate, closing the composition with the same rigour found on the motorcycles built in the workshop. The brass Hedon plate and polished brass hardware complete the visual identity, in coherence with the warm chromatic code of the leather trim.
Beneath this custom paint hides the reference quality of the Hedon Heroine Racer 2.0: composite fibreglass and carbon fibre shell, Hed-Armour 360° padded lining, antibacterial Merlin fabric, brass DD ring, 3-channel ventilation, dual ECE 22.06 and DOT homologation. A premium British base enriched by French craftsmanship.
Each piece is painted to order in the FCR Original workshop. A collector's piece to wear as much as to display.
