What makes one helmet brand truly different from another isn’t the paint, or the features, the price or the claims. What makes one helmet different is the caring and experience of the people who build it – and their pride in doing it right, or not at all. We think our people and their dedication to a job well-done helps make our quality unique. It makes an Arai an Arai.
One-Piece Liner
Arai’s EPS liner is like no other, comprised of several material densities molded into a single piece. Arai pioneered this technology more than 20 years ago and is still, to our knowledge, the only helmet offering a single-piece hybrid liner and its unique benefit: the direct-fused contact area that each EPS cell shares with it neighboring cells creates a mutual support. As one is crushed under impact, the surrounding cells assist with the energy absorption. (Liner pieces that are simply fitted or glued together cannot rely on such a high-level support bond.)
Rearvent and Ridge
The Quantum-2 has Arai’s distinctive Hyper-Ridge reinforcement band along the bottom of the shell adds reinforcement and shell strength. What makes this “minor” Arai feature significant? Many helmet makers reduce the shell material at the bottom of the helmet. But Arai maintains shell thickness to the very edge – and then strengthens it. Why? Because our experience tells us to. And because we don’t think it’s a good place to try to save a few dollars or a little weight. (Strengthening the bottom also helps to significantly lower the helmet’s center of gravity, contributing to a better overall balance, making an Arai rest easier on your head.)
Shell Construction
These days, there are almost as many “revolutionary” shell-construction materials as there are new helmet brands. Who do you believe? Arai’s decades of experience, research, testing, comparison and evaluation has led Arai people to conclude that fiberglass-based construction does the best job of performing a motorcycle-helmet shell’s main job — spreading impact energy over the widest area through strength, structural integrity and impact-flexibility. The Q-2’s ScLc (Super Complex Laminate Construction) shell utilizes Arai’s proprietary aerospace fiberglass technology to achieve an exceptionally strong, flexible shell in an extremely lightweight package.
Patented Dual-Pivot Chinvent
This easy-to-operate, two-position dual-pivot hinge mechanism allows for increased chinvent airflow capacity to two areas: the first position directs air to the face through an activated carbon-coated foam filter; the second position sends the air to the faceshield to aid de-fogging.
Organic Shell Shape
The Quantum-2’s enhanced “organic” shell shape has a more natural appearance, conforming more to the head’s natural shape. Designed to “flow” better with the wind, it also looks better on a rider’s head, smaller and less bulbous. And it seals better to further reduce noise, which enhances Arai’s legendary comfort even more.
Ventilation
One of the benefits of Arai’s Formula-1 auto-racing involvement (Arais are actually chosen by more than half the drivers on the F-1 grid!) is that we learned the best way to ventilate a helmet is to pull the hot stale air out, rather than trying to push new air in. The Quantum-2’s ventilation employs these principles, creating a flow-thru system of exceptional cooling throughout the helmet. The top vents are recessed into the shell to reduce drag and wind turbulence over the shell’s flowing-area. Again, as always, the Arai Way costs more to produce. But the Arai Way is about “better,” not “cheaper.” This is a 2009 model.
