Arai have built a new helmet that features the much-loved “Quantum fit” but also incorporates the superior technology of the MotoGP-tested RX-7 GP (launched in December 2008). The result is a sports-touring helmet that has been developed to offer new standards in comfort and safety.
RRP: £469.99 - January price: £399.49! (Limited sizes, whilst stock lasts)
Construction:
As with every Arai, the stiff and strong outer shell forms an integral and very important part of the total construction. For the Quantum, the tried and trusted ’Super CLC’ (Super Complex Laminate Construction) system was chosen.
The hand-built shell consists of three layers; two layers of Super Fibre with a middle layer of an exclusive, patented Arai fibre. Further increasing outer shell strength is the Arai "Hyper Ridge" construction at the bottom band of the helmet.
Providing riders with the safest possible helmet is paramount to Arai, which is why, unlike other brands, each and every helmet undergoes rigorous in-house safety and penetration tests similar to that of the Snell Foundation.
