An overrated helmet from Japan
I wanted to buy after a lot of years a decent helmet to protect my head.Paying over 400E i was convinced that these ARAI are the best helmets ever.Over 60miles or 100km/h the left side of this helmet makes it unbearable to wear it on,even with noise canceling aid and balaclava on it still is very noisy.
I send an e-mail to both ARAI and FC MOTO and nobody answered or offer a solution.

Bester Helm! Qualität und Design Top
Empfehle ich jedem! Die Qualität ist seinen Preis wert! Arai Helme sind die besten auf dem Markt.
Empfehle jedem wirklich nach cm Kopfumfang zu gehen. S hat zu stark gedrückt mit richtig Schmerzen aber M war viel zu groß. Aber man kann super einfach die Polsterung in mehreren Stufen rausnehmen extra von Arai gedacht für optimalen Sitz. Und jetzt sitzt S perfekt! Fest und sicher! Bequem und keien Schmerzen! Ich liebe den Helm und den super guten Service immer bei Fc moto! Bestelle immer wieder gerne hier :) Danke ans ganze Team

Arai ist ein top Produkt und passt.
Versand, Verpackung und Produkt ist absolut ok. Einzig die Beschreibung für die Montage der Pinlock ist nur in englisch verfasst und umständlich beschrieben. Die Bedienungsanleitung ist dann wieder mehrsprachig.

<strong>Arai Concept-X Backer Helmet</strong></p><p>The 1980s. Motorcycles without fairings. An attitude that made you feel different than everyone else. Introduction of the Concept-X. In keeping with the simple but aggressive style of the time, this helmet comes from the heart of Arai's R&D department. They loved the look, but that was about it. Now Arai engineers want a cool old-school look that suits your style and bikes. But they want coolness with modern Arai performance. The rugged simplicity of Concept-X is the product of imagination. But don't draw the wrong conclusions. The retro style may catch the eye, but it still had to pass Arai's stringent internal tests. As a result, beneath the aggressive look is a strong, lightweight PB e-cLc shell with a smooth, rounded shape, reinforced with Arai's proprietary peripheral belt to glide over surfaces and bounce off obstacles. The VAS-VC visor system, with its mechanical retro look, further enhances vision performance by lowering the visor pivot point to maximize a smooth top shell. Concept-X's sleek outer shell hides a secret: Arai's internal ventilation system. Cooling air passes through the visor's eyebrow-level vents, through the comfort liner and three top vents, and out through a hidden, multi-stage air duct inside the EPS liner via the negative pressure created by the combined venturi effect of the side vents and the neck vent. At the front, six mesh-covered slots can be closed to prevent fogging and opened for airflow.</p><p><strong style="font-size:12px;">Features:</strong></p><ul><li>PB e-cLc shell construction</li><li>Variable Axis System (VAS)</li><li>Free Flow System (FFS)</li><li>Concealed multistage air duct</li><li>Ventilation over the eyes</li><li>Inner closure (latch) for chin ventilation</li><li>Venting flaps on the sides and back of the head</li><li>Fixed chin spoiler</li><li>Facial Contour System (FCS)</li><li>Replaceable inner lining</li><li>5 mm removable ear pads/cheek/temple pads</li><li>New visor closure</li><li>Speaker bags</li><li>Suitable for eyeglass wearers</li></ul><p><strong style="font-size:12px;">Specifications:</strong></p><ul><li>Sizes: XS - XXL</li><li>Visor type: VAS MaxVision </li><li>Retention system: double D</li><li>Safety norm: 22-05</li></ul><p><u>Manufacturer's Note:</u></p><ul><li>Fluorescent and extremely bright finishes may fade over time due to sunlight.
