Features
• This makes for a more compact shell
• In shell creation, resin serves to bind material to material
• Arai has long developed exclusive resins to create stronger and lighter shells, and has recently developed a new 'Z Mixture' resin
• It increases the adhesion ability and strengthens the shell with less resin used, allowing for further weight reduction of the helmet
• Keeping with the Round & Smooth egg-shaped form, the Hyper Ridge, along the lower edge of the shell increases shell strength & protection around the bottom opening - managing energy migration laterally
• And the new side exhaust vents, sculpted into the Hyper Ridge design, result in a more efficient and smoother airflow
• The DT-X utilizes Arai’s proprietary multi-density one-piece EPS liner, specifically tuned to each area of the helmet, to maximize performance
• Shell shape & strength, combined with the tuned EPS liner, minimizes helmet size & weight - improving rider comfort
• The DT-X interior is made with an odor-reducing and dirt-resisting antimicrobial material
• The new neck roll, which wraps comfortably around the rider'ss neck, reduces wind noise while also improving ease of ingress and egress
• The addition of the FCS cheek pad makes putting on and removing the helmet easier while maintaining comfort around the lower jaw
• Both the comfort headliner and cheek pads have 5mm peel-away layers for microfitting
• The ear pockets have molded recesses for easier intercom speaker installation
• The upper front vent is Arai’s newest design, incorporating both an intake and exhaust port, creating a "dual flow" effect and is therefore aptly named the Dual Flow Duct
• Air enters the front intake of the duct and draws out hot exhaust air from the rear
• Toward the back, the newly styled rear Duct Flow Spoiler also incorporates a dual flow system for great airflow
• The center duct hole takes in air and uses the low pressure from the left and right duct slots to draw out hot air
• This new ventilation system works well in many riding positions, allowing the front and rear vents to let cool air enter from the front regardless of the rider's head angle
• The shield-mounting mechanism features a new Variable Axis System (VAS) pivot operation feature
• The VAS pivot cover is now smaller and lower than the previous design, yielding an average 24mm more area above the cover
