THE EVOLUTION OF AN ICON
The VFX-WR 06 is the professional off-road helmet trusted by athletes to keep them safe when chasing the limit. Now with ECE 2206 homologation, the VFX-WR 06 is fully loaded with next-level performance, safety, style and progression. Proudly boasting the Shoei-exclusive Motion Energy Distribution System (M.E.D.S.) – strategically engineered to reduce rotational acceleration energy to the head in the event of an accident, VFX-WR 06 has been engineered to give off-road riders championship winning confidence.
M.E.D.S – MOTION ENERGY DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
- Proprietary, Shoei-exclusive rotational energy absorption technology
- Large center column anchors inner EPS layer
- EPS swings during impact to reduce rotational forces to the head
- Strategically-designed perimeter columns absorb rotational energy
- Significant reduction of rotational forces to the rider’s head
- Traditional lightweight, impact-absorbing characteristics Shoei’s EPS
HOW M.E.D.S. WORKS
SHOEI’s exclusive Patent-Pending impact absorbing liner is specially engineered to reduce rotational acceleration energy by 15%* to the head in event of an accident.
*when compared to SHOEI’s previous off-road helmet.
- Inner EPS Layer – Swings during an impact
- Perimeter Columns – Strategically-designed to absorb rotational energy
DUAL LAYER / MULTI-DENSITY EPS LINER
- Varying foam densities for enhanced impact absorption
- Cooling air is channeled through tunnels in the EPS liner
- Precisely placed EPS for a compact, lightweight design
- M.E.D.S. technology absorbs and reduces rotational energy
MULTI-PLY MATRIX AIM+ SHELL
- Proprietary technology construction with a six-ply matrix
- Hand-laid, interwoven layer shell construction
- Fibreglass, organic, lightweight and high-performance fibres
- Shoei’s lightest, strongest, most elastic shell
- Optimal impact absorption and race level protection
SHELL DESIGN + AERODYNAMICS
- Exclusive state-of-the-art shell forming technology
- Incorporates the aerodynamic advantages of a spoiler
- Consistent shell thickness guarantees proper strength
LARGE EYE PORT
- Massive peripheral field of vision
- Large eye port facilitates large goggles
- Shell and port form a goggle strap retention system
SLEEK V-470 PEAK
- Fine-tuned by Shoei’s professional off-road racers
- Seamless connection with the shel
- Superior protection against roost
- Channels cooling air into the helmet
- “Home” position at the highest point of adjustability
- New flange mechanism prevents unexpected peak movement
- Polycarbonate screws shear off during impact, for protection
ADVANCED MOUTHPIECE
