PRO GuIDe Feature-rich X.WED 2 dual-sport upgrade The all-new X.WED 2 is a first update to the Portuguese manufacturer Nexx’s popular dual- sport helmet in which “the only thing that has changed is everything”! The overall look is identical to the original, but “more and advanced features and lots of refinements make this the ultimate all-road, all-weather, wild adventure helmet”. Features include a new peak, an adjustable multi-position system (incline/decline up to 10 mm), reduced weight and improved aerodynamics, strategically designed to provide additional direct air intake and reduce high speed buffeting and vibration. A re-designed ventilation system offers a new three-position upper vent for optimal air intake and the dual- side intakes have a new positioning/angle that allows more fresh air in; it also features a new chin ventilation intake along with improved glove friendly handling and ergonomics. It is available in three styles, Hill End, Plain and X-Patrol, and more shell sizes; the 3D lining has been improved, and the top liner optimised to conduct fresh air around the head contour; a new chin wind stopper was developed to reduce wind noise and drafts and provide a better snug fit around the neck and lower facial area. A new Emergency Strap System is built into each cheek pad. Other specifications include X-Patrol PARTS AND ACCESSORIES Hill End Plain action camera supports in the top of the peak and both sides. The helmet is equipped to accommodate the NEXX award- winning X-COM Bluetooth communication system, has a tool free adjustable peak extender for highway or off- road use, an 80% tint inner visor with an easy button mechanism that allows operation even in dusty or muddy conditions, a visor with X-lock quick release system (prepared for Pinlock Max Vision) and a special chin shape to reduce breast injury risks from frontal impacts. The helmet has an X-MATRIX shell (multiaxial fibreglass, 3D organic fibres, special aramid fibres and carbon reinforcement), is ECE/22-05, DOT and NBR-7471:2001 approved, has X-Mart Dry fabrics, a double D-ring buckle, a panoramic eye port, a PC Lexan clear shield with anti-fog position and Super Lock, night vision reflectors, an aerodynamic shell and rim and Ergo padding system.
