Arai's RX-7V Evo is a top-of-the-line sport full-face helmet handcrafted by a Japanese family-owned company. This helmet represents the culmination of Arai's expertise in protection, ventilation, comfort and fit.
Its predecessor, the RX-7V, was already a highly successful helmet, but the new Evo model has been improved in numerous aspects. For example, the helmet is now approved according to ECE R22-06, which requires more rigorous testing than ECE R22-05, with more impact points and an oblique test to measure helmet rotation. In addition, ventilation has been further improved with improved internal channels, and the ergonomics of the cheek pads have been improved for greater protection in the event of impact.
The outer shell was made to be as rounded, smooth and durable as possible to improve the helmet's ability to glide and deflect energy. This, along with the one-piece differentiated density inner shell, is a unique feature and the heart of Arai's philosophy.
The RX-7V Evo also includes many features that have made the RX-7V a successful helmet, such as the VAS system for visor closure (Variable Axis System), the locking system derived from that used in Formula 1, the fully removable interior made of antibacterial and hypoallergenic material, and the double ring closure.
