Arai Quantic
By Jack Rydell
The Arai Quantic is a European full-face helmet with a PB e-clc shell and ECE 22.06 approval. This overview uses Arai’s model factsheet.
Who should consider it
European road riders interested in the Quantic’s full-face layout, speaker pockets and replaceable interior.
Features and trade-offs
Arai documents a VAS Max Vision shield, replaceable interior and speaker pockets. The PRO Shade system is available as an optional accessory.
The PRO Shade system is optional. Check the full shade and communications setup you want before comparing costs or ease of use with a helmet that has an internal visor.
What to check at a fitting
Wear the helmet with your glasses and intended speakers. Try the VAS Max Vision mechanism and ask which approved interior adjustments apply to your size.
Start with the manufacturer’s size chart and keep the helmet on long enough to identify pressure points. Follow the model’s fitting instructions and repeat the retention checks after any approved adjustment. Record the size and padding configuration that works for you.
Use the helmet fit checklist before comparing accessories.
Two alternatives to try
- AGV K6 S (EU). European road riders considering a carbon-aramid full-face helmet and willing to compare the weight of their actual size.
- Shoei GT-Air 3 (EU). Touring riders who want a fixed chin bar with a built-in sun visor and optional SRL3 communications.
Compare these three helmets. Keep the version labels visible when considering models from different markets.
