Part number 0101-18597 features an interior liner with thicker front and rear pads and thinner side pads, helping accommodate riders whose heads are wider rather than elongated. The result is a secure, comfortable fit suited to everyday street riding and extended time in the saddle.\u003cbr\u003eThe helmet uses Arai’s Variable Axis System (VAS) shield system to lower the shield pivot point by an average of 24 mm. This creates a smoother shell surface in the critical temple area, helping improve the helmet’s ability to glance off impacts and reduce energy transfer. The improved VAS latch securely captures the shield to help prevent unexpected opening while the larger latch supports intuitive operation, including easier use of the de-mist function. A VAS-Max Vision shield is included and accepts a VAS-MV Pinlock lens, with a Pinlock 120 lens included for improved fog resistance.\u003cbr\u003eVentilation is managed by QVF three-position intake ducts and QVR exhaust ducts, providing effective airflow during changing riding conditions. The side vent continues to function as an exhaust outlet even when the front shutter on the top duct is closed. FCS® cheek pads use contoured shaping, multiple foam densities, and a foam spring to cradle the face, improve comfort during helmet removal, and help reduce wind noise. A water-repellent ES chin cover is installed to enhance the helmet’s egg-shaped profile, smooth airflow, increase exhaust from the mouth area, and limit wind noise from below. The PB-SCLC shell combines multiple materials and construction techniques for balanced performance and value.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eRound Oval Interior: Thicker front and rear pads with thinner side pads accommodate riders with slightly wider head shapes.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVariable Axis System (VAS): Lowers the shield pivot point by an average of 24 mm to create a smoother temple-area shell surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eImproved Glance-Off Ability: Helps the shell reduce impact energy entering the helmet in the critical temple area.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSecure Shield Latch: Captures and holds the shield closed while providing smooth access to the de-mist function.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eQVF and QVR Ventilation: Three-position intake and exhaust ducts provide effective airflow for street riding.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eContinuous Side Exhaust: The side vent remains functional even when the top duct’s front shutter is closed.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFCS® Cheek Pads: Multi-density foam and a supportive foam spring improve facial comfort, fit, and wind-noise reduction.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eES Chin Cover: Water-repellent cover smooths airflow, improves mouth-area exhaust, and reduces wind noise from below.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePB-SCLC Shell: Peripherally Belted Super Complex Laminate Construction balances performance and affordability.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVAS-Max Vision Shield: Included shield accepts a VAS-MV Pinlock lens, with a Pinlock 120 lens included.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ARAI HELMETS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49353271247083,"sku":"010118597","price":819.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/3882\/9547\/files\/5686869.png?v=1788637454","url":"https:\/\/ctracingservices.com\/products\/arai-quantum-x-helmet-wave-xs-part-0101-18597","provider":"Cascade Tire \u0026 Racing Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
