Metropolitan-1 jet helmet
THE Metropolitan-1 is said to combine "amazing
flexibility and individual design options with
maximum safety and optimum comfort", according
to German manufacturer Schuberth.
Equipped with integrated speakers and concealed
microphones for the latest generation of the optional
SRC-System intercom, the clear standard visor can
be replaced with optional 40 percent or 80 percent
tint versions, visors in a silver or blue mirror finish and
a choice of five different sun visors.
The removable visor can be replaced with an
accessory peak, available in titanium or matt black.
Riders can also choose a top ventilation scoop in
titanium (standard) or matt black.
The shell is made of a composite matrix with a
weight of just 1,395 g, but despite this low weight
Schuberth say the helmet achieved "outstanding"
shock absorption figures. EPS in varying degrees of
hardness is used for the inner shell "to ensure the
best possible fit, comfort and safety".
The multi-piece inner shell incorporates integrated
ventilation channels that create a controlled flow of
air. The patented A.R.O.S. (Anti-Roll-Off-System) is
designed to ensure the helmet remains securely in
place in an emergency.
The removable inner lining is said to be the first
one ever to be completely seamless, and is
antibacterial, breathable and quick-drying.
The optional SRC Communication System allows
wireless communication with pillion or other riders,
features a built-in antenna and includes a hands-free
function for mobile phone, music streaming
and playback of voice commands
from satnavs.
