Arai’s ultimate off-road helmet gains ECE R22-06 approval
No significant changes required thanks to Arai’s Priority for Protection: the core design philosophy of creating rounder, smoother and stronger outer shells combined with a one-piece multi-density EPS liner that work together to improve ‘Glancing Off’ performance.
 
The MX-V evolved from the legendary VX-3 and years of Arai’s competition experience can be found in its ultimate MX, Enduro and off-road use helmet. And, while fashions in helmet appearance come and go quickly, the MX-V’s organic R75 shell design exists for the same reasons it is in all Arai helmets: to create a smooth, round shell shape that maintains its integral strength.
 
The absence of exaggerated edges or protrusions is not a lack of imagination or creativity on Arai’s part. It’s because the shape of the helmet works to improve protection. It’s also the reason that the MX-V is the latest Arai to receive ECE R22-06 approval without significant changes.
 
Priority for Protection: Arai’s core design philosophy of producing rounder, stronger and smoother outer shells to improve ‘Glancing Off’ performance is key in this attainment, as is the rigorous in-house criteria process that all Arai helmets must satisfy.
 
As with each and every Arai, it’s the sum of the details coming together to produce an even greater result than their sum that makes the MX-V EVO the benchmark it is.
 
It starts with a strong outer shell: the PB-CLC2 outer shell is manufactured using a special Z-compound resins, and balanced by a lightweight inner liner for reduced overall weight.
 
Riding hard in the dirt, ventilation really matters, and the MX-V’s front and rear vents work together to pull cool air through the helmet. The peak too channels airflow in with a design that also reduces lifting. The interior is also fully removable, easy to wash, and adjustable.
 
The MX-V EVO is Arai’s ultimate off-road helmet.
