Nexx Helmets
A new upgraded version of the XR1R Carbon helmet is now available and is called the Nexx XR2 Carbon. The original XR1R Carbon has now been developed and the new Nexx XR2 Carbon builds upon features of the original model while still keeping in place the designs that worked incredibly well, and the parts which needed improvement were altered effectively.
This helmet has kept the original shell and this is a popular, highly rated shell which has been approved by the ACU, as well as the DOT and ECE. This shell was also rated incredibly in the original model and users can be pleased to know that there are a selection of new colors and new parts which are available on this latest helmet. This new model is more comfortable and is quieter when it is used. It also offers better protection on the side of impact and is effective against the wind at higher speeds. It is also one of the lightest motorcycle helmets available at the moment and weighs only 1295 g.

Nexx Carbon Helmet Features
Another part of the helmet which is being upgraded in order to offer better protection on the side impacts, as well as the ability to allow for a better airflow around the forehead area is that of the shock absorbing layer, known as the EPS lining. This is based beneath the area of the outer shell.
This carbon helmet also has mechanism which allows for an emergency removal feature – a handy feature which will allow the helmet to be removed in the situation of an accident without it affecting the neck and head in any way. This is possible through the use of side pads which have a emergency release tab function and can be accessed from the helmets base when professionals arrive at the scene to help in medical situations. These pads allow for the helmet to open up in size and will make a large opening in the case of an emergency so that the helmet can be removed easily.
There is also a focus on improved aerodynamics with this new helmet and this allows for the elimination of any wind buffeting. The same shape of the original helmet has also been kept and this effective shell has also had the addition of a new rear spoiler, which has been placed at the base and at the top of this helmet model. This is designed to make the helmet more aerodynamic, as well as being more quiet and stable at the same time.

More Nexx Helmet Upgrades
There has also been an upgrade to the shape of the front visor and this has been designed so as to create a much clearer view and better optics for the rider as well as a higher level of soundproofing. This is achieved by producing a hermetic seal throughout the shell of the helmet. As well as being crystal clear, users of this helmet will enjoy the large opening design of the visor, making it easy to see around you. There is also a function of a quick release on the new visor and this will create a lock which is more secure. Also, as standard there is a visor insert for anti fog ability. The vents which deal with air intake have also been redesigned and are now more durable for the user, providing a smoother level of operation, allowing for a better designed in aerodynamics.
The XR1R has been replaced with this great new helmet, the Nexx XR2. Just to recap, some of the key feature improvements have been made – The visor is now flat and comes with optics that are improved and a locking position which is central and has been designed for a greater level of soundproofing. There is also a seal which is hermetic and this is against the shell of the helmet. There has been an upgrade of the EPS lining, which can be found beneath the helmet and offers protection from side impacts. Anti fog advisory inserts which have picked Pin locks functions are now available. Like the Carbon Fiber Motorcycle Helmet counterparts, this helmet was developed with protecting your head from high speed impacts.
