Updated Scorpion EXO-1400 Carbon Air
Scorpion Exo has updated its top of the range Gran Turismo (GT) helmet - the EXO-1400 Carbon Air. Also available in new OBSCURA and DRIK graphics, the Carbon Air "embraces the best features in terms of safety, comfort and luxury with a unique versatility and a decidedly racing look, for a truly superlative character".
The shell is in Ultra-TCT CARBON, in three different sizes, and is made by mixing the carbon fibre with a mix of fibres called Ultra-TCT (Thermodynamic Composite Technology) to bring the weight down to just 1,250 g and still guarantee "great resistance and better shock absorption".
The air intakes are profiled; the removable and washable interior features the Scorpion AirFit system, and in addition to the clear visor, the EXO-1400 Carbon Air is sold with a "dark smoke" visor included.
The new Ellip-Tec mechanism means the visor can be replaced easily, without the use of tools, and very powerful springs "guarantee a totally hermetic and more silent visor gasket seal. In the event of a fall, Ellip-Tec is resistant and able to keep the visor in place".
The Speedview retractable sun visor has anti-fog treatment on both sides and Pinlock 100% Max Vision ensures 100% anti-fog action - the anti-fog lens is positioned on the visor to ensure maximum visibility.
The removable and washable liner is in new antibacterial KwikWick III fabric, and the AirFit inflatable pad system ensures comfort and fit. There is a double-D closure ring, and it features eyewear- friendly internal KwikFit pads. The visor locking system is positioned in the centre of the locking/unlocking of the visor to further ensure a perfectly hermetic closure - the three-position visor can be closed, fully open or slightly open.
The profiled air intakes are quiet, while the new ventilation system guarantees great Venturi effect air recycling. Additional features include nasal deflector, quick cheek pads removal and a 5-year warranty.
