Helmet: ARAI CONCEPT-XE Full Face Frost Black

ARAI CONCEPT-XE Full Face Frost Black Helmet 

DESCRIPTION 

The 1980s. Motorcycles without fairings. An attitude that made you feel different from everyone else. Introduction of the Concept-X. In keeping with the simple but aggressive style of the time, this helmet comes from the heart of Arai’s R&D department. They loved the look, but that was about it. Now Arai engineers want a cool old-school look that suits your style and bikes. But they want coolness with modern Arai performance. The rugged simplicity of Concept-X is the product of imagination. But don’t draw the wrong conclusions. The retro-style may catch the eye, but it still had to pass Arai’s stringent internal tests. As a result, beneath the aggressive look is a strong, lightweight PB e-cLc shell with a smooth, rounded shape, reinforced with Arai’s proprietary peripheral belt to glide over surfaces and bounce off obstacles. The VAS-VC visor system, with its mechanical retro look, further enhances vision performance by lowering the visor pivot point to maximize a smooth top shell. Although it is reminiscent of the past, the Concept-X is, to a large extent, a helmet of the present. Ready for a generation of modern riders who demand a new, old-style – but with the performance and comfort that only an Arai helmet can provide.
