Purpose-built for the street. A new benchmark in comfort, quiet, stability, and ventilation. Arai applied the same tireless 24-7 focus devoted to our race helmets to designing it, refining and adapting proven concepts to a new purpose. On the rounder end of the head shape spectrum, the Quantum series has always been the "go-to" helmet of choice. The new Quantum-X brings that shape back in a feature-rich package. Features Round oval shape, achieved by using an interior head liner that combines thicker front and rear pads with thinner side pads, is designed for riders whos heads are slightly wider rather than elongated In addition to the de-mist function, the larger latch allows for intuitive and seamless shield operation Improved Shield Latch — The VAS latch captures and securely holds the shield closed to help prevent unexpected opening Side vent still serves as an exhaust vent even when the front shutter is closed on the top duct Improved Glance Off Ability — Variable Axis System (VAS) shield system lowers the pivot point by an average of 24 mm, making the shell surface area in the critical temple area much smoother and better able to reduce impact energy getting into the helmet QVF & QVR Intake/Exhaust Ducts — Features QVF three-position intake and QVR exhaust ducts for excellent air intake and exhaust performance when riding Water repellent ES Chin cover comes installed, enhancing the Egg Shape of the helmet FCS® Cheek Pads — The contoured shape—combined with multiple layers of varying foam densities supported by a foam “spring”—cradles the face and makes on-off easier while helping to block even more wind noise Comes with VAS-Max Vision (VAS-MV) shield that accepts the VAS-MV Pinlock® lens Chin cover smooths airflow, increases exhaust from the mouth area and reduces wind noise coming up from below The Peripherally Belted - Super Complex Laminate Construction (PB-SCLC) shell design combines multiple materials and techniques that deliver both performance and affordability Pinlock® 120 MaxVision™ included
