The Arai Quantum-X Helmet in Steel Red is designed for riders with a round oval head shape, offering a comfortable fit for heads that are slightly wider rather than elongated. Its interior head liner uses thicker front and rear pads with thinner side pads to create a secure, balanced feel. The Small-size helmet features Arai’s focus on precise fit, comfort, and dependable performance for everyday street riding and extended trips.
The Variable Axis System (VAS) shield system lowers the shield pivot point by an average of 24 mm, creating a smoother shell surface through the critical temple area. This improved shell profile is designed to help reduce the energy transferred into the helmet during an impact. The improved VAS latch securely captures the shield when closed and helps prevent unexpected opening, while its larger design supports intuitive shield operation and includes a convenient de-mist function.
Ventilation is managed by QVF three-position intake ducts and QVR exhaust ducts to promote effective airflow while riding. The side vent continues to function as an exhaust outlet even when the front shutter on the top duct is closed, helping maintain ventilation control in changing conditions. FCS cheek pads use contoured shaping, multiple foam densities, and a supporting foam spring to cradle the face, improve comfort, ease helmet removal, and help reduce wind noise.
The water-repellent ES chin cover comes installed to enhance the helmet’s egg-shaped profile, smooth airflow, improve exhaust from the mouth area, and reduce wind entering from below. The PB-SCLC shell combines multiple materials and construction techniques for a balanced combination of strength, performance, and value. The Arai Quantum-X includes a VAS-Max Vision shield that accepts a VAS-Max Vision Pinlock lens, with a Pinlock 120 MaxVision lens included. Part number 0101-15737 identifies this Steel Red Small configuration.
