Arai’s NEW Defiant Helmet For 2013

New for the Arai lineup of helmets is the ‘Defiant’ series of helmets. New from Arai is the Defiant helmet, an aggressive looking lid that the company says features a host of innovative features. Aimed at the urban rider/streetfighter motorcycle segment, and based on Arai’s RX-Q shape, the Defiant features the company’s new Facial Contour System (FCS) cheek pads, a pull-down chin spoiler, a two-position chin vent, new intake vents and new exhaust vents.
Because Arai views all helmets first and foremost as energy management systems, the Defiant features the company’s smooth, round shape that is said to allow it slide smoothly along the ground in the course of an accident. The shape also allows the helmet to glance off objects during the slide with less rotational forces.

The defiant also sports a couple other key Arai features a multiple-density EPS liner and the Hyper-Ridge reinforcing band around the opening of the helmet. The FCS cheek pads serves several purposes, including providing great comfort. The contoured pads are built with multiple layers of different density foam, all backed by a foam “spring” that keeps the pads resting against a rider’s face. The pad’s design also blocks wind noise from entering the helmet. The helmet’s various venting features are also said to help improve airflow, reduce drag and act as stabilizers to help reduce buffeting. The new IR chin vent has two positions, one allows air to flow through and up over the inside of the faceshield for defogging, the other opens up airflow to the rider’s mouth. It’s also said to be easy to replace. The Defiant is available in several solid colors and in various graphics, in sizes XXXS through XXXL.
