Concept-XE's brute simplicity is the product of imagination, but make no mistake, while the retro style may grab the attention it had to pass Arai's stringent in-house testing. So underneath the aggressive look, you'll find a strong, lightweight PB e-cLc shell, with a smooth and round shape, reinforced with Arai's proprietary peripheral belt, to slide across surfaces and glance-off obstacles. The VAS-VC shield system, with its retro mechanical look, further enhances glancing-off performance by lowering the visor pivot point to maximize a smooth upper shell.

Although a nod to the past, the Concept-XE is very much a helmet of the present. Ready for a generation of modern riders that demand a new, old style - but with the performance and comfort only an Arai can provide.

ECE R22-06 requires a much more stringent testing process than the previous ECE R22-05 and includes an oblique test to measure rotation. Acquisition of the latest standards represents the current benchmark of the time, but Arai always continues to pursue improvements to protect the rider.

ECE 22.06 certified includes an oblique test to measure rotation

Peripherally Belted e-Complex Laminate Construction (PB e-cLc)

Designed to glance off and spread impact forces

Variable Axis System (VAS) for enhanced shell smoothness

Strong outer shell to spread impact forces

Soft inner shell to absorb remaining energy

Hidden multi-stage air channel within the EPS liner

Air feeds into the visor brow vents and drawn through the liner

Open and close the chin bar vents from the inside

Neck and rear side exhaust vents help maintain a constant airflow

Fixed chin spoiler minimizes wind noise

VAS MAX Vision visor provides better visibility in all seasons

Visor can be opened with one finger, even while wearing gloves

Pinlock insert lens included to prevent the visor from fogging up

Antimicrobial liner and cheek pad material used

The flat and D-shaped rings fit smooth against the chin

Fully removable and washable cheek pads and interior

Integrated speaker pockets that accommodate most intercom systems

Facial Contour System (FCS) offers a more snug-fitting helmet

5mm ''Peel Away'' Ear cups/Cheek pads for a personalised fit

Emergency Release System (ERS) for quick removal

Breath guard to better direct fresh air

Each Arai helmet goes through five separate quality-control depart­ments

Penetration tested, although not required by European helmet standards
