Motorcycle Gear 101 - Shoei X SPR Pro Review. To be honest with you, when I first saw this, I didn't like it. I saw it in the pictures and didn't rate it at all. I thought to myself, what have they done? That is not a better-looking helmet, but to be honest, it looks fantastic now that I've seen it in the flesh. It's a lot of money for a helmet, and everything is getting more expensive, so it's expected that the latest model will become more expensive. After all, we are looking at one of the top premium brands available today. Shell Construction The shell for this helmet is made from the same AIM plus material as the X-Spirit 3, a composite of different fibers to deliver the right blend of protection and lightweight.

Weight We weighed this helmet in size medium on our scales at 1479 grams/3.2 lbs which is 72 grams more than an X-Spirit 3 when we weighed it last year. But, I think anyone would be hard pushed to say they can feel the extra 72 grams of weight. The FIM also approves it for use in international racing and Shoei's MotoGP. Visor. Shoei X SPR Pro Review.

The Shoei NXR is one of the best road-going helmets you can buy. Small, lightweight, well ventilated, and at a great price point, its popularity with motorcyclists was massive, and now it's even better with the NXR2.

It's an evolution of the existing NXR rather than a rip-it-up-and-start-again job, but that's no bad thing because the NXR is an excellent and very popular helmet already. The big and most noticeable changes are in the visor and the ventilation, but one major change will probably be invisible to most of us. This helmet meets a new safety standard that will supersede our existing one in Europe. This is the first helmet we've tested that meets ECE 22.06. The new standard will be phased in over to replace 22.05, which has been in place since 2000. Shoei NXR 2 Helmet Features A very small margin also increases weight.

The Schuberth C5 is an all-new tour modular helmet with modern features and specifications. This is the schuberth C5. The long-awaited successor to the tried and tested C3 helmet, at least if we ignore the controversial C4. 3 Trail Helmets With MIPS - 1st Look Schuberth brought out the original C4 helmet around four years ago.

There was also an issue with the chin ventilation button, which would fall off quite easily. These issues were all fixed with the release of the new C4 pro, which was improved, but it still wasn’t blowing us away. The following is something you’ll hear me say quite a lot in the future.
