HJC RPHA 91 — Modular Performance at Mid-Range Price

HJC's RPHA range sits above their mid-tier IS series. The RPHA 91 brings a genuine composite shell to the modular category at a price that undercuts Schuberth and Shoei significantly.

Materials & Vegan Verification

P.I.M.Plus shell — HJC's acronym for their polycarbonate, glass fibre, and carbon weave composite. Interior lining is HJC Advanced Comfort padding: microfibre construction, fully removable and washable. No leather, suede, or silk used anywhere. Fully verified vegan.

Specs

  • Shell: P.I.M.Plus (polycarbonate/fibreglass/carbon FRP composite)
  • Weight: 1,650 g (size M)
  • Ventilation: 2 top intake vents + 2 rear exhaust ports
  • Visor: HJ-39 scratch-resistant visor; PINLOCK 30 clear lens included; integrated drop-down sun visor
  • Certification: ECE 22.06

Why This Helmet Works

PINLOCK 30 included at this price is the norm for mid-range, but the composite shell is not — most sub-€350 modulars use full polycarbonate. The HJC lining system removes and washes easily, which matters for multi-day touring.

Modular Use Note

ECE 22.06 certification covers the RPHA 91 chin bar in the closed position only. Open-face riding is legal per EU law (chin bar counts as a modular) but the certification specifically applies to the closed configuration.

⚠️ Verify current certification at point of purchase — ratings may vary between production runs.

Pros

  • Composite shell at mid-range price
  • PINLOCK 30 included
  • Removable/washable liner
  • Integrated sun visor

Cons

  • PINLOCK 30 (not 70/120)
  • Only ECE-certified closed
  • Ventilation limited
  • Heavier than full-face equivalents

Vegan Verification Notes

P.I.M.Plus composite shell. Advanced Comfort interior is 100% microfibre — no leather, suede, or real silk lining. Confirmed across all RPHA 91 colourways.
