SHOEI NEOTEC PREMIUM FLIP-UP HELMET

SHOEI’S most recent entry into the modular helmet realm offers protection, comfort and versatility with a redesigned shape and improved features that place the Neotec® ahead of the rest. Be it standard touring, sport-touring or cruising, here is a helmet that will suit your style with the premium quality SHOEI is well established for.

IMPROVED DESIGN
Evolving on previous designs, SHOEI has revamped its modular helmet style with a streamlined and attractively sculpted shape that conveys the feel of freely moving through the outdoors. All ventilation mechanisms are shaped and positioned in such a way as to reduce any possible drag. The chin bar’s “Vortex Generators” reduce turbulence, noise, and manage airflow around the helmet. A redesigned aerodynamic spoiler also helps to cut lift, reducing neck strain on long, cross country rides. All these features combine to create a premium helmet that excels in appearance, protection, comfort and performance.

FACE COVER, SHIELD AND SUN SHIELD
The Neotec®’s face cover is connected to the same axis point and mechanism as its shield, minimizing extra parts. This also enables simultaneous closing of the shield with the face cover, which is then held in place with an easy-open lock release button. SHOEI’s 360º Pivot Locking System is made of high quality stainless steel components to ensure a safe and secure closure when the Neotec’s chin bar is in the down, locked position.
With the Neotec®, SHOEI now includes a built-in sun shield, the QSV-1. The visor tucks neatly away beneath a non-intrusive shell built into the helmet’s liner, and can be lowered with the easy control of a sliding button. The use of a new “Dual Ridge Window Bead” results in a quiet and tightly sealed face shield closure.

PINLOCK® FOG-RESISTANT SYSTEM
The CNS-1 shield includes built-in pins for Pinlock® anti-fog lenses, which transform single shields into dual shields which resist fog buildup. The lens has been newly designed to cover a larger area on the shield, increasing peripheral vision in the event of fog buildup.

SHELL AND INTERIOR FITTINGS
The interior fittings of the Neotec® have been newly redesigned for fine adjustment and easy maintenance. The top center pad is removable, in turn making it easier to remove all other interior parts. A variety of fabrics are utilized to maximize comfort and perspiration absorption. A firm, even fit is accomplished with the help of polyurethane foam layers of varying hardness. Hold can be further optimized through a choice of three shell sizes. Improved design in the shape of cheek pads now allow for better fit around the earpieces for eyeglasses, reducing the gaps in order to cut invasive exterior noise.
AIM (Advanced Integrated Matrix) is SHOEI’s own shell structure, lightweight but rigid and elastic, combining layers of strong fiberglass with organic fibers. A balanced combination of both rigid and pliant layers provides superior safety performance and fulfills strict standards expected of protective motorcycle headwear.

VENTILATION SYSTEM
The Dual-Layer EPS Liner of the Neotec® is engineered to minimize heat and humidity as well as significantly cut excessive wind noise. Two three-position adjustable intake vents allow for fine tuning of the air inlet charge. Incoming air also enters through a mouth vent in the lower section of the face cover, also controlled by a shutter just under the face shield. Hot air is then exhausted through the top outlet. The dual liner routes and disperses air evenly throughout the helmet.
