RidersDiscount Posted January 29, 2020 Report Share Posted January 29, 2020 All out versatility; a full-face helmet and half-helmet, all in one well-engineered, adaptable package, Shoei’s Neotec II helmet is ready to go with you, in all conditions, day or night. Cleverly disguised as a full-face helmet, the Neotec II comes with flip-up functionality that lets you get a full face of the wind whenever your heart desires. And you can do this without the need to quickly slap on a set of shades thanks to the built-in sun shield. This shade can be instantly deployed with your clutch-side hand by pushing on a large lever at the helmet’s side. Of course, when you’re in full-face mode, you can have the shaded shield down as well. In front of that sits a clear flip-up face shield, too. As you can see, there are lots of options for covering your face and eyes with this helmet! Aside from the obvious ventilation performance that comes with a modular helmet, Shoei didn’t stop there. A three-way intake is set top and center on this helmet in a way that, even with the chinbar locked in the fully-upright position, this intake still draws air into the helmet. You can even reach up from the front and open/close it should the need arise. For cooler weather, in full-face mode, a chin intake can easily be opened and closed. Cleary, Shoei’s engineers thought this one out. And if you’re looking for (relatively) quiet comfort, we’ll point out the bottom of the comfort liner – specifically, the parts the cover your cheeks and chin. The liner, itself a fully-removable affair, is built with a curtain that surrounds the lower part of your head to keep noise out, prevent updrafts into the helmet, and otherwise keep the air in front of your face still where your head would otherwise be in the wind. There’s also a rubber gasket that surrounds the faceshield when it’s closed to further stabilize the environment inside the helmet when you need it most –it keeps rain and wind out no matter how fast you ride. The modular helmet’s convenience cannot be understated, but there’s even more to this aspect of the helmet’s design – a ratcheting chin strap to hold the whole thing on your head. All you have to do is adjust the strap to fit your head the very first time you put on the helmet and then you can quickly buckle the stainless steel latch quickly and easily every time you don the helmet. You can do it easily with gloved hands. For those of you that like to keep in touch with other riders, or take calls when you’re rolling down the road, this helmet is for you! All you have to do is add a SENA SRL communication system to this helmet. The Neotec II comes ready-made for the installation of this system with provisions molded into its shell for the device, its earphones and microphone. You can easily install an advanced communication system in your helmet without sacrificing comfort of function thanks to its ready-made design. Every Neotec II modular helmet ships with a Pinlock Evo anti-fog visor insert and helmet bag. All workmanship is backed by a 5 year manufacturer warranty. Face in the wind or not, this helmet can be adapted to your riding mood or weather conditions quickly, without the need to pull it off your head. This makes it an exceptional value for the all-weather/all season rider. These helmets are not yet available on our website.
