ARAI HELMETS Contour-X Helmet - Diamond Black Large (Part No. 0101-18137)

The ARAI HELMETS Contour-X helmet in Diamond Black offers a blend of advanced aerodynamics and rider comfort. Its ultra-thin 3.5 mm duct seamlessly integrates with two central 10 mm intake ports, effectively managing airflow at low speeds and during upright riding positions. The logo duct features an easy-to-operate short-stroke lever positioned at the top, allowing riders to open or close it effortlessly while wearing gloves. The design ensures that if the logo appears in its normal position, the duct is open, providing optimal ventilation. Built with safety in mind, the logo duct is engineered to break away upon impact, maintaining rider protection without compromise. The helmet’s aerodynamic rear spoiler, inspired by the DF-X2 of the Corsair-X but reimagined for touring, includes a one-piece exhaust/spoiler function controlled by a three-way switch. Positioned slightly forward on the shell, the spoiler is fed by three ports that efficiently draw air, smoothing airflow over the helmet's surface to enhance stability and minimize buffeting at highway speeds. This design reduces rider fatigue during long-distance rides and improves overall comfort. Crafted as lightweight as possible, the rear spoiler is designed to break away in impact situations, ensuring safety remains paramount. The helmet also features a three-position (open, midway, closed) sliding air-scoop chin vent that delivers high-volume airflow through a replaceable filter. The vent's actuating mechanism is designed for easy glove operation. For communication system integration, the shell is engineered to accommodate external connection points without compromising the inner EPS liner's protective integrity. The shell itself showcases a stylish, organic shape constructed with Peripherally Belted Complex Laminate Construction (PB-cLc2), which provides lightweight strength and includes integrated side ducts. An additional super fiber belting layer maintains shell rigidity in critical areas while allowing for easy installation of intercom systems with flat sides. The helmet incorporates the Variable Axis System (VAS), lowering the visor mounting position by approximately 24 mm across the temples for a more aerodynamic profile that aids in deflecting energy impacts. The shell flares 5 mm around the opening, facilitating easier helmet donning and removal, though initial snugness may be felt by new users. A discreet stitched opening on the inside of the neck roll provides a clean solution for wiring excesses when installing communication systems, ensuring a neat finish. Overall, the Contour-X Helmet combines innovative airflow management, safety features, and comfort-oriented design, making it an excellent choice for touring riders seeking style and functionality.
