ARAI HELMETS Contour-X Star Helmet Large - Part 0101-18582 with Advanced Aerodynamic Features

The ARAI HELMETS Contour-X Star Helmet in Large offers cutting-edge design and superior protection for serious riders. This helmet features a low-profile 3D Arai logo duct, measuring just 3.5 mm in depth, which effectively channels air through two central 10 mm intake ports. This duct performs optimally at low speeds and in an upright riding position, with a convenient short-stroke lever at the top allowing easy opening or closing even with summer or winter gloves. If the lever is not visible and the logo is in its normal position, the duct is securely open, ensuring reliable airflow management. The logo duct is designed to break away upon impact, enhancing safety without compromising structural integrity. The aerodynamic rear spoiler, inspired by the DF-X2 of the Corsair-X but redesigned for touring, features a one-piece exhaust/spoiler that improves airflow and stability at highway speeds. It is operated via a 3-way switch for open, midway, or closed positions, effectively reducing buffeting and rider fatigue during high-speed overtaking. Made as thin and lightweight as possible, the spoiler is engineered to break away upon impact, maintaining safety standards. Ventilation is further enhanced with a three-position sliding chin vent that delivers a high volume of airflow and includes a replaceable filter. The vent's thickened actuating mechanism allows easy operation with gloves. The helmet's exterior is designed to facilitate seamless attachment of communication systems without compromising EPS liner protection, thanks to an exterior-friendly design. Its stylish, organic shape utilizes Peripherally Belted Complex Laminate Construction (PB-cLc2) for lightweight strength, with integrated side ducts and an extra layer of super fiber belting in crucial areas for added rigidity. The Variable Axis System (VAS) lowers the visor mounting position by approximately 24 mm across the temple areas, enhancing aerodynamics by increasing the chance of glancing off impacts. The shell flares 5 mm around the opening for easier fitment, especially for newcomers, although initial snugness is expected. A discreet stitched opening inside the neck roll allows easy routing and concealment of wiring during intercom system installation, contributing to a clean and professional appearance. Overall, the Contour-X Star helmet combines advanced aerodynamics, safety features, and rider comfort, making it an excellent choice for touring enthusiasts seeking both style and functionality.
