The VX-16 includes features demanded by off-road riders, yet available at a price anyone can afford. The lightweight polycarbonate shell and Dual-Density EPS provide efficient impact protection and energy absorption. The Airfit liner inflation system allows you customize the fit of your helmet, while intake vents on the forehead align perfectly with internal channels inside the helmet, keeping you cool when temperatures rise. The VX-16 includes another unique feature that you do not see in most helmets, which is a peak visor extender. This will help block mud and sun in different terrain.
- Advanced polycarbonate shell is engineered to be lightweight, strong and maximize impact displacement.
- Dual-density advanced multi-layer EPS provides efficient energy displacement.
- EPS liner throughout entire chin bar provides additional protection.
- KwikWick II liner fabric keeps you cool and dry in warm weather, warm in cool weather.
- Four intake ports on the chin bar maximize airflow.
- Two intake ports across the eyebrow allow cool air into the helmet and force unwanted hot air out of the two rear exhaust ports.
- AirFit Liner Inflation System features an inflatable cheek pad system for superior personalized fit (exclusive to ScorpionEXO).
- Goggle eye port accommodates most brands of goggles and sizes and has a soft pliable rubber roost guard.
- Aero-tuned visor's aerodynamic design allows free flowing air through the visor while still blocking the intense sun from above.
- Peak extender included to help further block the sun and elements when riding.
- Double D-Ring retention system.
- DOT FMVSS No. 218 Approved.
- Five year warranty.
Premium Materials:
Stronger and lighter than general plastics, the LG Chem Polycarbonate resin used has an excellent impact resistance and remains dimensionally stable through a wide range of temperatures.
Protection:
Scorpion EXO's advanced injection molding technology allows for a near zero-tolerance fitment accuracy between all components, from shell, to EPS, to vent. The benefits from this level of precision include; superior structural strength and unsurpassed fit between the shell and its components. The VX-16's main shell sculpture also has minimal sculptural protrusions which not only minimizes rotational stresses in the event of an impact, it also helps minimize overall weight.
Aerodynamics / Ventilation:
The VX-16's unique shell sculpture amplifies ventilation performance starting with the peak visor acting as a ram air forcing fresh air towards the five (5) integrated intake vents. These intakes redirect incoming air to internal ports and then flows through multiple internal channels. This internal flow literally pulls heat and humidity up and out the rear spoiler via an aerodynamic venturi effect.
Vision: The VX-16's eye port and peak visor positioning were specifically designed to provide a massive (190 horizontal and 100 vertical) visual field of vision. This also allows the VX-16 to accommodate virtually all goggle sizes.
Comfort:
On the inside, to compliment the injection-molded EPS impact liner, the VX-16 features premium materials like the breathable, moisture-wicking KwikWick II liner that's easily removable and washable. Complimenting aerodynamics and lightweight construction, the VX-16 was specifically sculpted to provide a neutral medial balance. This is a key detail resulting in a significant reduction of rider fatigue and increased mobility.
