SHOEI VFX-WR PINNACLE HELMET - TC8

SHOEI VFX-WR PINNACLE HELMET - TC8

The world’s most celebrated motocross helmet has evolved even further! Fully loaded with next-level performance,safety and style, the all-new VFX-WR proudly boasts the SHOEI-exclusive Motion Energy Distribution System[M.E.D.S.] - strategically engineered to reduce rotational acceleration energy to the head in the event of an accident. The new VFX-WR has been completely redesigned and re-engineered without sacrificing an ounce of the quality and performance that have given SHOEI off-road riders championship winning confidence for decades. The all-new VFX-WR defines the future of performance off-road helmets.

SAFETY

Few characteristics of a motorcycle helmet are as critical as its first-layer of defence the outer shell - which is why the all-new VFX-WR features SHOEI’s unique 6 layer Multi-Ply Matrix AIM+ Shell construction. Combine that with the proprietary, SHOEI exclusive Motion Energy Distribution System [M.E.D.S.], and the all-new VFX-WR sets a new standard for safety and performance.

MOTION ENERGY DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM [M.E.D.S.]

• Proprietary, SHOEI exclusive rotational energy absorption technology
• Anchored by larger centre column, inner EPS layer swings during impact
• Strategically designed perimeter columns absorb rotational energy
• Significant reduction of rotational forces to the rider’s head
• Preserves the lightweight, impact-absorbing characteristics of SHOEI’s traditional EPS systems

DUAL-LAYER/MULTI DENSITY EPS LINER

• Provides enhanced impact absorption by utilising varying densities of foam
• Allows cooling air to travel unrestricted through tunnels created in the EPS
• Precise placement of multi-density EPS material yields a more compact, lightweight design
• D.S. technology absorbs and reduces rotational energy

MULTI-PLY MATRIX AIM+ SHELL

• Proprietary technology integrates a six-ply matrix
• Hand-laid interwoven layers of fibreglass with lightweight organic and high-performance fibres
• SHOEI’s strongest, lightest, most elastic shell provides optimal impact absorption

CHIN BAR EPS

• High-quality EPS liner material throughout entire chin bar for enhanced impact absorption

SHELL DESIGN + AERODYNAMICS

Thanks to a new state-of-the-art shell forming technology exclusive only to SHOEI, the VFX-WR incorporates the aerodynamic advantages of a spoiler into its shell, and consistent shell thickness guarantees the proper strength, weight & protection of each and every helmet.

• Exclusive, state-of-the-art shell forming technology
• Incorporates the aerodynamic advantages of a spoiler into the shell
• Consistent shell thickness guarantees proper strength and weight
• Shell integrated goggle channel forms a perfect goggle retention system

VENTILATION PERFORMANCE

Racing environments can be extremely hot and fatiguing, which is precisely why next level ventilation performance was a top priority when conceptualising the VFX-WR. Developed in SHOEI’s in-house wind tunnel to realise optimal vent port shapes, sizes and locations, the VFX-WR’s advanced ventilation performance has been optimised to excel in the most demanding conditions.

• Boasting sixteen (16) intake and exhaust vents in total
• Wind tunnel tested for optimal vent port shapes, sizes and locations
• Improved negative air pressure suction for enhanced cool-air intake and hot-air expulsion
• Cooling air channels in the dual-layer EPS liner further enhance airflow
• Optimised to excel in the demanding confines of off-road and motocross environments

3D MAX-DRY INTERIOR SYSTEM

• Fully removable, washable, replaceable, and adjustable
• Max-Dry liner material absorbs and dissipates sweat 2X faster than traditional nylon interiors
• Soft yet durable lower cheek pad fabric for a plush fit and feel
• Multi-layer cheek pads for maximum comfort and superior helmet stabilisation
• Three-dimensionally shaped to match the contours of a rider’s head

LARGE EYEPORT

• Provides a massive peripheral field of vision
• Large eyeport facilitates oversized goggles

V-470 VISOR

• Fine-tuned by SHOEI’s professional motocross and off-road racing team
• Specially designed for a seamless connection with the shell
• Provides superior roost protection and channels cooling air into helmet
• Utilises highest point of adjustability as its standard “home” position
• New flange mechanism to easily find home position and prevent unexpected movement
• High-grade polycarbonate screws are capable of shearing off during impact to reduce forces to the rider’s head

EMERGENCY QUICK RELEASE SYSTEM [E.Q.R.S.]

• Allows emergency medical personnel to easily and safely remove the cheek pads from an injured rider’s helmet
• Helmet can be gently removed from an injured rider’s head with minimal load placed on his/her neck

ADVANCED MOUTHPIECE

• Equal parts style, functionality and safety
• Wind tunnel refined for optimal cooling
• Reinforced by a strategically placed strip of AIM+ shell material
• Aluminium mesh screen and removable, washable foam filter prevents roost, rocks, mud, and dust from entering helmet
