Stand21 FHR Available in the US
I just got this email from Stand21 https://mailchi.mp/ac61426429e7/brea...7?e=502ba7ce6e
Their FHR restraints are available in the US now. What I found interesting was that their developement was seperate from HANS since 2007. Also, their base model, weighing only 1.41lbs is only $379! I don't need another, but for that price I'm tempted to buy one to test out. If anyone needs one, that's a deal that would be tough to beat. |
Are the anchors same as regular HANS?

I have a 30 degrees HANS for my formula car. Unfortunately it is kind of a pain when I race a sports car. May buy a 20 degrees FHR for the sports car.
Thanks for the heads up :) |
From the pictures the anchors sure look like standard HANS. They don't say any place. I found all the links a bit confusing and am not sure I tried all them but when I got to an actual store, all it sold were HANS. Anyone have a link to where we can get the Stand21 version? With the new PCA rules I'll need my older helmet, and a second H&N restraint if I want to take students out in my car.

I have two of the Stand21 Ultimate HANS devices. These are the devices many of the pro drivers in WEC, DTM, VLN and other European series wear. They are amazingly lightweight - you do not know you have it on! Is it expensive - yes! Is it worth every penny? YES!!!
Stand21 has owned the right to manufacture HANS devices for many years. They are manufactured at their headquarters/factory in Talant, France which is just on the outskirts of the city of Dijon as you head towards Circuit Prenois (site of the French Grand Prix for a number of years). Yves Morizot is Stand21's founder and CEO, and his focus on safety is legendary. All I can say is I find Stand21 to be THE BEST in terms of safety equipment for the driver. Up until this announcement, Stand21 could not sell their devices in the US. I bought mine direct from Yves Morizot (I spoke to him prior to RR V and he literally brought mine over for me to pickup from their trailer at Laguna). It's good to see that they are now selling in the US. My FIA8860/SA2015 helmet is from Stand21, custom-painted and I persuaded Yves to sign it for me during manufacture (I actually have a picture of Yves signing the helmet prior to the clear coat applications). Truly a one-of-a-kind helmet! https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...86d4ecc02a.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...ade314558c.jpg IMHO, you CANNOT go wrong buying your safety equipment from Stand21. They are more expensive than some, but worth EVERY PENNY! No affiliation with Stand21, other than being a long-time, very satisfied customer! Toby |

I wouldn't leave out some time in the city. I've done a great biking cave (wine) tour near by and had some real fun in Dijon. I wasn't able to visit Stand21 that trip, but would love to go back. Yves is a great guy and conversations with him solidified to me just how safety focused he is in all aspects of his products.

I have one ordered from the UK, and it was an extreme value for the dollar. Love that I was able to source it for around $300 bucks and although a little tight on the neck when sliding it on, works great and seems light weight!
