Nolan N100-5P Distinctive

The outer shell is made of Lexan, a special type of polycarbonate that is stronger and more durable than the polycarbonate used for almost all helmets.

The visor is now even larger and wider with the N100.5, so you have a field of vision that approaches that of a jet helmet. The ingenious hinge system of the chin bar can be tilted at two points, placing it just above the helmet in the open position. This greatly increases the aerodynamics and "allows you to ride reasonably 'open' at brisk speeds".

The Nolan N100.5 has dual homologation (P / J inspection). This means that this helmet is approved as both a jet helmet and a full-face helmet, so you can ride with the chin bar open without consequences. And this helmet is perfectly suited for that. The chin bar has the safer 'Dual Action' opening mechanism. To open your chin bar, you need your thumb and forefinger. You can still open the helmet with one hand, but thanks to this extra protection, the chin bar is much less likely to open in an accident.

•  Stronger than polycarbonate, inspected as an open and closed helmet
•  Chin bar just above the edge of the helmet, allowing you to ride open at higher speeds
