Description   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 defogging. The Quantum-2's enhanced "organic" shell shape has a more 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. The Quantum-2"s has Arai's distinctive Hyper-Ridge reinforcement band along the bottom of the shell that adds reinforcement and shell strength. What makes this "minor" 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 strength 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.) One of the benefits of Arai's Formula-1 auto-racing involvement (Arai's are actually chosen by more than half the drivers on F-1 grid!) is that we learned the best way to ventilate a helmet is to pull the hot stale air out, rather trying to push new air in. The Quantum-2's ventilation employs these principles, creating a flow-thru systems 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, always, the Arai Way costs more to produce. But the Arai Way is about "better," not "cheaper"
