Shoei VFX-W Dissent Helmet

Shoei’s extensive experience in off-road helmet design and manufacturing has led to the creation of a new standard in off-road helmets, the VFX-W. The aggressive shell design allows for a lightweight off-road helmet that offers incredible protection, form-fitting comfort, cooling ventilation and components that are easy to care for. 

Features:

  • Advanced Integrated Matrix Plus (AIM+) construction combines high performance fibers with organic fibers to create a shell structure that is lightweight, rigid and resilient
  • Four shell and five liner sizes present increased fit options that help to comfortably fit most head sizes
  • Aerodynamic properties are maximized through extensive wind tunnel and rider testing
  • Front intake vents combine with rear vents and a neck outlet vent to maximize flow-through ventilation
  • Cool air passes through the front intake vents, cools the helmet interior and is exhausted through the rear vents by the force of negative air pressure
  • The helmet interior is constructed with a comfortable, Max-Dry material that absorbs and discharges moisture two times faster than traditional nylon
  • The 3D Max-Dry removable liner system is thermomolded to match the liner perfectly to the helmet interior
  • The cheek pads, upper liner and chinstrap covers are easily removed for cleaning and/or replacement
  • The removable cheek pads are available in optional sizes so that each rider can personalize their fit
  • Aggressively shaped Sleek Visor provides incredible airflow for reduced drag
  • Sleek visor is easily installed or removed with the use of three external screws for ease of access to center screw and tightening by hand
  • No-clog Sleek Mouthpiece for enhanced flow-through ventilation
  • Removable, washable and replaceable Sleek Mouthpiece filter
  • Matte black anti-reflection for underside of visor is included (white and graphic models only)
  • Unique chin strap clip keeps strap from flapping in the wind
  • Ergonomically shaped mud guard
  • Helmet sack constructed of soft, velvety fabric with drawstring closure

This helmet is awesome in every way. It's light, it's super comfortable, and it looks amazing! Can't ask for much else out of a helmet. Well worth the money if looking for a high end off road helmet.

I wanted a helmet that I could have on for hours at a time and not feel my neck getting sore or any pain to my temple area. I found the PERFECT helmet. Received my VFX-W and went for a 4 hour ride. Never took off the helmet even when my buddies stopped to rest and took off their helmets. It felt like I was wearing a baseball hat. It is light and so comfortable.
If i could give 6 stars for comfort I would.

Revzilla's review on this helmet tells it all. A little pricey, but light, comfortable, cool, well made and easy to work with. My head shape is long oval and this helmet fits me well. I also have Oakley Crossbar goggles with a quick strap that fits perfectly into this helmet. If you're not familiar with the Crossbar goggles the strap is extended away from the frame which allows air to enter the helmet from the sides of the goggles. Awesome setup.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great helmet. No complaints. But I researched and made a decision based on the price on the Revzilla video by Tony.in which he said AND it was captioned that the price was about $360 bucks. When I went to order it Revzilla would not budge on their price of 399. I feel like I was violated. I didn't have the energy to start my research over and chose differently. The helmet is probably worth 399 but it sucks that Revzilla would not honor their word!
Yes, I recommend this product.
