Contour-X Helmet - Diamond Black - Medium
The ARAI HELMETS Contour-X Helmet in Diamond Black offers advanced aerodynamic performance combined with innovative safety features. Its ultra-slim 3.5 mm thick duct incorporates two central 10 mm intake ports, optimized for low-speed riding and upright riding positions. The logo duct is designed for easy opening and closing with summer or winter gloves through a short-stroke lever at the top; when the lever is not visible and the logo appears in its normal position, the duct is open, providing efficient airflow management. The helmet features a breakaway logo duct that ensures safety by detaching upon impact, minimizing injury risk. An integrated aerodynamic rear spoiler, inspired by the DF-X2 Corsair-X but tailored for touring, is mounted further forward on the shell and is fed by three ports to smoothly draw air and streamline airflow over the helmet, reducing buffeting and enhancing stability at highway speeds. This design significantly decreases rider fatigue during extended rides. The spoiler is constructed as a single-piece exhaust/spoiler assembly operated via a three-position switch*open, midway, and closed*allowing customizable airflow while ensuring durability and impact safety. The helmet's chin vent includes a sliding air-scoop with three positions, providing a high volume of airflow with a replaceable filter, and features a thicker, glove-friendly actuating mechanism for easy control. Designed to accommodate communication systems, the shell allows seamless external mounting without compromising helmet integrity. Its outer shell employs Peripherally Belted Complex Laminate Construction (PB-cLc2) along with extra super fiber belting in critical areas, ensuring lightweight strength and rigidity. The Variable Axis System (VAS) lowers the visor mounting position by approximately 24 mm across the temple areas, enhancing peripheral vision and energy deflection. The shell's flare around the opening facilitates easier donning and doffing, especially for new users. An internal stitched opening in the neck roll discreetly manages excess wiring for communication systems, maintaining a clean, aerodynamic profile. Overall, the Contour-X combines innovative airflow management, safety features, and comfort-focused design, making it suitable for touring riders seeking performance and style in a lightweight shell.
