Description

Description

Shell:

• PB-ScLc2 Shell: The new Peripherally Belted Super Complex Laminate Construction shell combines multiple materials and techniques created internally by Arai over more than 6 decades of experience that deliver both performance and affordability.
• ES Chin Curtain: This curtain accentuates the egg-shaped form of the shell and blocks turbulent air from entering the underside; works with pull-down spoiler.
• Outward-Flaring Hyper-Ridge: Flares out to provide a larger opening for easier ingress and egress; the reinforcement band circles the bottom of the shell adding strength and lowering the helmet’s center of gravity.
• Improved glance off ability: A smooth shell is key to a helmet’s ability to slide across a surface or Glance Off an obstacle during an impact. Arai’s VAS shield system lowers the pivot point by an average of 24mm, making the shell surface area in the critical temple area much smoother and better able to reduce impact energy getting into the helmet.
• Long oval fit package: The Signet-X’s longer interior shape is specifically designed for riders whose helmets can cause painful forehead hotspots due to interior shapes that aren’t made to fit their longish oval heads.

Ventilation:

• Pull Down Spoiler: Helps to minimize wind noise and turbulence, this movable piece under the chin also aids with the extraction of hot air from the rider’s face.
• Brow Vents: Gives you more cooling air in the temple and forehead area without holes in the critical forehead section of the shell or impact absorbing liner.
• Cowl Exhaust Vent: Exhausts heat more efficiently; these vents are sculpted into the rear shell shape for optimal aerodynamic characteristics.
• QVF Series Top Vents: The three-position front intake duct provides optimal cooling and aerodynamics.
• QVR Series Top Vents: This rear exhaust duct features a three-position sliding lever and stabilizing aerodynamics for a smoother ride.
• Chin Vent Shutter: This closable gate in front of the center vent allows the rider to block out extreme weather conditions. Can be opened in warmer weather.
• QVF and QVR intake/exhaust ducts: The Signet-X features QVF three-position intake and QVR exhaust ducts for excellent air intake and exhaust performance when riding. Even when the front shutter is closed on the top duct, a side vent still serves as an exhaust vent.

Shield:

• VAS Shield Mechanism: The Variable Axis System (VAS) incorporates a moving pivot point allowing for a lower shield mount position. A dual-function lever releases the cover plate and shield pin for quick shield removal.
• VAS Shield Demist Latch: This innovative latch captures and securely holds the shield closed to help resist unexpected opening. The demist function allows the shield to be opened just a bit while still fastened and is larger to allow for intuitive and seamless shield operation.
• VAS Max Vision BV Shield: This shield features brow vents and a cavity to receive the Pinlock lens insert and provides better visibility for all types of riding.
• Pinlock Lens Insert: This clear fog mitigating lens insert is made of a special material by Pinlock to absorb moisture and enhance visibility in all conditions.
• Pro Shade System (Optional accessory not included): This shield system offers a convenient external shade to block ambient light, while functioning as an aerodynamic peak in the raised position.

Interior:

• FCS® Cheek Pad Design: Arai’s patented Facial Contour System adds just the right amount of support by moving out of the way when putting the helmet on, but once the helmet is on, cradling the rider’s face and jaw area.
• FCS® cheek pads: The contoured shape – combined with multiple layers of varying foam densities supported by a foam “spring” – cradles the face like nothing that has ever come before, even from Arai. The spring makes on-off easier, while helping to block even more wind noise.
• 5mm Peel-Off Layer: This removable layer gives the rider a micro-fitting option to easily adjust the cheek pads to one size thinner cheek pad.
• Emergency Release Cheek Pads: These allow for easier access to an injured rider by sliding out via integrated pull tabs built into the cheek pad underside.
• Removable Neck Roll Pad: This removable pad allows easier cleaning and replaceability along the rider’s neck for sound insulation and comfort.
• Odor Resistant Interior Lining: Exclusive liner with odor resistant material stays fresher between cleanings.
