Show Neotec helmet review. Hello this is Bart from The Helmet Shop today I am showing you
the Shoei Neotec modular helmet from Shoei. The Neotec is Shoei's advanced lightweight
modular helmet with a built-in internal sunshield. The Neotec shell is made of a combination
of really lightweight, durable fibers, Shoei refers to this as (AIM) their advanced integrated
matrix fibers that they use in the manufacturing process. This helmet weighs 3.8 to 3.9 lbs,
the weight varies depending on the size of the helmet due to the 3 different size shells.
This model has a single button release to retracted the jaw piece open or closed, the
button can be operated with either left or right hand and opening is easily with riding
gloves. The closure system made with top-of-the-line stainless steel parts so we know that the
closure is very secure. This model also features Shoei's built-in integrated spoiler that helps
reduce buffeting at really high speed and to displaces wind for quietness. The ventilation
feature on this helmet is a new three position top intake vent in a scoop design to grab
a lot of fresh air in the top the helmet, as well as a single exhaust vent positioned
in the center or the rear of the shell for a steady flow of fresh air across the top
of the riders head. This model also features Shoei's new shutter design chin vent on the
chin bar which is easy to operate with thick riding gloves. The purpose of this front chin
vent is for the steady flow of cool air across the riders face as well as the reduction of
any heat or humidity that might be building up in the helmet.This helmet is offered in
seven different solid and metallic colors, from sizes extra XSmall through 2Xlarge, this
is the anthracite and this is a silver there is also White, Black, Matte Black, Wine, and
Brilliant Yellow. The interior liner system on this model is Shoei's 3-D Max dry interior,
the top liner the cheek pads also the chin strap covers are removable, washable, and
replaceable. The interior is designed to expell moisture away from the riders face and towards
the shell to allow it to dry very quickly the interior is communication friendly, the
helmet comes with these ear filler pads that can br removed when installing helmet speakers,
this interior is also eyeglass compatible with grooves on both sides of the interiors
for riding glasses. The new big feature to this helmet is the introduction of Shoei's
new integrated internal sunshield system, this internal sunshield system is a single
button activated shield for immediate relief from the sun and glare. The external shield
is Shoei's new CSN1 pinlock shield system that is both taller from top to bottom as
well as larger from side to side compared to the older shield systems. The shield also
includes a lock to lock to shield in the closed position this will also pull the shield closer
to the weather bead on the shell reducing the wind noise and giving a weather tight
seal. Removal of the external shield is very easy, there is a spring-loaded single button
to pop the shield on and off. This pinlock shield is available in clear and the helmet
does come with the anti-fog insert. If you're shopping online and you want to know our best
