The ARAI HELMETS Contour-X Helmet in Fluorescent Yellow offers advanced aerodynamic features and innovative design elements for enhanced riding comfort and safety. Its lightweight outer shell, constructed with Peripherally Belted Complex Laminate Construction (PB-cLc2), provides superior strength and durability while maintaining a sleek profile. The helmet features a low-profile 3D Arai logo duct that measures just 3.5 mm in depth, efficiently feeding two central 10 mm intake ports to improve airflow and cooling during rides. The aerodynamic rear spoiler, inspired by the DF-X2 of the Corsair-X but redesigned for touring, sits slightly forward on the shell and is fed by three ports, effectively drawing air while smoothing airflow over and from the helmet sides. This design significantly reduces buffeting at highway speeds, leading to improved stability and decreased rider fatigue. The spoiler is engineered to break away upon impact, ensuring safety without compromising protective integrity.
The helmet includes a versatile venting system featuring a three-position sliding chin vent that allows for easy adjustment with gloves, providing a large intake volume through a replaceable filter. This venting system helps regulate temperature and airflow, enhancing comfort across different riding conditions. The shell design incorporates an adjustable visor mounting system with the Variable Axis System (VAS), which lowers the visor position by an average of 24 mm for better peripheral vision and improved aerodynamics. Additionally, the helmet's opening is flared by 5 mm around the face opening, facilitating easier donning and doffing, especially for new users.
For communication system integration, the Contour-X features a dedicated exterior connection area that does not compromise inner EPS protection. Inside, a neat stitched opening on the neck roll allows for clean wiring management when installing intercom systems. The helmet's overall shape is organic and stylish, with smooth contours that enhance both aesthetics and aerodynamics. The rear exhaust/spoiler is operated by a three-way switch, inspired by the Corsair-X but optimized for touring, and designed to be easily accessible. An extra layer of super fiber belting in the outer shell maintains rigidity, especially around critical areas, while flat sides facilitate the installation of communication devices.
Designed for both performance and comfort, the Contour-X Helmet is an ideal choice for riders seeking a lightweight, durable, and aerodynamically efficient helmet with excellent ventilation and communication compatibility.
