Arai RX-7V: sporty design and construction experience in helmet development

A redefined shell in PB-SNC², a VAS (Variable Axis System) visor system and an even smoother and more resistant temple area are some connotative aspects of the helmet Arai RX-7V. A model visible on the occasion with the Nakagami GP2 color scheme.

Helmet

The shell, as mentioned, is entirely reshaped following the R75 Shape criterion, defined to be even smoother and more resistant, so that the helmet slides over any obstacles without risky rotations. The VAS visor system allows you to further lower the opening mechanisms, obtaining functional absorption even in the temple area.
Please note the use of a new resin PB-SNC², improving the cohesion between the fiber layers. The shell is more resistant and lighter. Furthermore, the Arai polystyrene, with differentiated density in a single piece, features 3 to 5 different density areas.
According to the indications, the new shell design implements the space in the chin area by 3 millimeters. Furthermore, the helmet is designed to pass, together with the mandatory ECE 22-05 approval, also the selective Arai internal tests.

Speaking of ventilation, the upper central air intake offers an 11% greater flow rate and there is also a new system for opening/closing the air intakes. The Air Channel routes the incoming air from the temple area to the side ducts, furthermore the new Diffusers are 20 mm wider and more efficient with a 19% higher air intake inside. Then the stability and attenuation of the buffering effect is linked to the Airwing, adjustable in five positions.
The new Variable Axis System visor system it allowed a reduction in the size of the mechanism and external supports, intensifying the helmet's performance in the event of an impact and facilitating its replacement. Furthermore, the visor lock system has also been completely redefined. A solution that can be operated with a single, extremely fluid and intuitive movement, even while wearing gloves.
- interior in Ecopure they can be washed with neutral soap and warm water. The lining fabrics and design make putting the helmet on even easier. The points most subject to stress are designed to flex or even separate, without interfering with the shell's absorption performance.

Proposal

By consulting the "BER stores" portal, combined with BER RACING Europe, the helmet sizes Arai RX-7V Nakagami GP2 they range from medium to XL. We report a figure of 1.079,00 euros.
