Nolan 2014 helmets
NOLAN Group has released details of its 2014 helmet range that includes the top-of-the-line X-802R Ultra Carbon lightweight racing helmet. Three different outer shell sizes are used by Nolan to cover the six helmet sizes. The company says that this design feature allows the helmet’s weight and volume (and hence its aerodynamic drag) to be kept to a minimum, proportionate to the rider’s head size.
An adjustable aerodynamic spoiler is integrated in the rear part of the shell. Said to be the product of extensive wind tunnel testing and racetrack experience, the spoiler optimises the helmet’s aerodynamics during riding, improving stability at high speeds and helping to vent hot air from the interior through outlet vents integrated directly in the spoiler. Its profile, and aerodynamic performance, can be adjusted to one of two available configurations to better suit different riding positions and styles.
Touring riders are being offered a new modular X-Lite brand X-1003 composite flip-up. The three shell sizes feature a triple touring vent system (inlets at the dual action chin guard opening and top, and rear exit) inner VPS sun screen (Vision Protection System), 'Eyewear Adaptive' system for glasses wearers and removable/washable lining.
For those riders who prefer an open-face helmet, Nolan has launched the N40. The outer shell is injection- moulded from polycarbonate Lexan EXL and available in sizes XXS to XXL.
The ventilation system, which uses Nolan’s new AirBooster Technology, features a top air intake and a rear extractor. The ventilation system, together with the wide visor (equipped with the quick release mechanism), is said to ensure maximum comfort whether for use around town or on long trips.
Nolan’s N40 is also fitted with a fully adjustable VPS sunscreen and a fully removable and washable Clima Comfort inner lining. Microlock retention system and set-up for the N-Com communication system complete the helmet.
