With the new APEX series— de — Scorpion is taking a clear step toward the premium segment. Within this new helmet line, de Scorpion EXO-GT SP AIR has been developed for motorcyclists who want to combine sporty riding with the comfort you expect from a good touring helmet during longer rides.
De To that end, the EXO-GT SP AIR features a new carbon matrix outer shell, an Optical Class 1 main visor and sun visor, an extensive ventilation system en , and various features designed to enhance comfort during long rides. But what exactly is APEX en , and what makes de Scorpion the EXO-GT SP AIR different from de existing full-face helmets from Scorpion?
APEX is de a new premium helmet series from ScorpionEXO. So it’s not simply de the name of a single new helmet, but a complete product line in which Scorpion combines its latest technologies en with high-quality materials.
Within the APEX series at de , Scorpion focuses on, among other things:
De Within this series, the EXO-GT SP AIR is de a helmet designed primarily for de sporty touring riders. Other models in the de APEX series include de the EXO-RACE AIR en and the EXO-GT JET.
De Scorpion EXO-GT SP AIR is a premium full-face helmet designed for sport touring. This means th de helmet isn't focused exclusively on maximum sportiness, but rather aims to offer a combination of aerodynamics, comfort, visibility en nd practicality.
This is particularly evident in de the choices made by Scorpion . For example, the De helmet features an integrated sun visor, AirFit, an extensive ventilation system en , and a Pinlock MaxVision 200. At the same time, a great deal of attention has been paid to de aerodynamics en and reducing wind noise.
This makes the de EXO-GT SP AIR particularly appealing to motorcyclists who regularly ride longer distances but still want to maintain the closed- en , sporty character of a full-face helmet.
One of de the most important features of de the EXO-GT SP AIR is de its new Lite Force Carbon Matrix outer shell.
Scorpion uses high-quality carbon materials for this purpose. The de 2027 catalog discusses, among other things, chopped 12K carbon fibers that are processed into Scorpion’s own carbon mat. De construction combines different carbon structures to create a strong outer shell without adding unnecessary weight.
For de motorcyclists, this means above all that Scorpion at de EXO-GT SP AIR has paid close attention to de the balance between protection, strength, en and weight.
A special feature of the de Scorpion EXO-GT SP AIR is its Optical Class 1 visor.
With a traditionally curved visor, de shape en material thickness can cause slight optical distortion. Scorpion therefore uses a visor whose de material thickness varies across the surface.
The purpose of this is:
In addition, de the visor was designed with aerodynamics en and wind noise in mind.
Good visibility is especially important on longer rides. After all, you’re looking through the visor for hours on end en , so even minor distortions can become much more noticeable than during a short ride.
Scorpion de 's EXO-GT SP AIR takes it one step further. Not only the standard visor, but also the integrated sun visor meets Optical Class 1 standards.
That's interesting, because an internal sun visor also creates an additional optical layer between your eyes en de .
The sun visor is available in different material thicknesses to reduce distortion en de and improve visual accuracy.
As a result, Scorpion aims to maintain the same clear view provided by the main visor as much as possible when riding with the sun visor down.
The SpeedView II sun visor can also be adjusted to two different heights.
That may sound like a minor detail, but not every motorcyclist has the same face en and nose shape. A sun visor that fits one person perfectly at de might, for example, sit too high or too low on someone else.
Scorpion That's why de offers you a choice of two settings. This allows you to de adjust the position of the sun visor to better fit your face en and preferences.
For a touring helmet, ventilation is just as important as aerodynamics. During a long summer ride, you want to prevent hot air from building up inside your de helmet.
That is why Scorpion uses the new Cool Tech ventilation system for the EXO-GT SP AIR at de .
Special air ducts have been installed in the EPS. The system uses pressure differences between de air ducts en and exhaust vents en to draw fresh air in and expel warm air as efficiently as possible de from the helmet.
Scorpion It has also developed an additional airflow tunnel in the EPS for this purpose.
The result should be particularly noticeable during longer rides: more consistent air circulation around the head en and more efficient removal of warm air.
As we've seen with various premium Scorpion helmets, the de EXO-GT SP AIR also features AirFit.
The AirFit system allows you to inflate air cushions in de cheek pads. This enables you to de adjust the fit of de helmet around de your cheeks more precisely.
This can be helpful, for example, if you want a slightly tighter fit around your face while riding. With the press of a de button, you can add extra air en de to make the cheek pads fit more snugly against your face.
Noise plays a major role in a sport-touring helmet. A helmet that’s comfortable during a short ride can quickly become tiring over several hours when there’s a lot of turbulence en and wind noise.
Scorpion Therefore, it has not only considered sound insulation, but also de the shape of the visor en de the aerodynamics of de the helmet.
The Optical Class 1 visor has a specially designed shape that is intended not only to improve visibility but also to de improve airflow around de the helmet and en reduce wind noise.
This aligns with de 's overall positioning of the de EXO-GT SP AIR: a helmet designed to allow you to ride longer distances in comfort.
De The EXO-GT SP AIR comes with a Pinlock MaxVision 200.
De Pinlock helps prevent the main visor from fogging up on the insi de . This is an especially important feature for a touring helmet in cold or wet weather.
De The MaxVision model is also designed to cover as much of the field of view as possible.
Scorpion In addition to the clear main visor, de also includes a smoke visor with the EXO-GT SP AIR.
That makes the de helmet much more versatile. For everyday use en in low-light conditions, you use the clear visor, while the smoke visor is especially useful for riding in bright sunlight.
In addition, there is an extensive selection of other visors available, including dark smoke, various mirrored visors en , and a photochromic visor.
The Ellip-Tec II mechanism has also been implemented for changing the visor.
The system was developed to make it easy en to safely remove en and reinstall the visor. This is especially handy when you regularly switch between, for example, the clear en and smoke visors, or when you want to clean the visor.
De Scorpion The EXO-GT SP AIR features a Double-D buckle with a titanium-black finish.
A Double-D buckle is commonly used on high-quality sports en racing helmets. en offers an easy way to de tighten the chin strap precisely every time.
De EXO-GT SP AIR has been certified for use with de ,Scorpion , EXOCOM LINK-1, en , and LINK-1C. These communication systems are not included as standard with de helmets.
This makes it possible to add communication features to de helmet when, for example, you want to listen to music, hear navigation instructions, or communicate with other motorcyclists while on the road.
Of course, the de Scorpion EXO-GT SP AIR meets the de ECE 22.06 certification requirements.
In addition, the de helmet features an emergency release mechanism. This makes it easier to remove de the cheek pads in an emergency, so that first responders can more easily remove de the helmet from the wearer’s head.
De The EXO-GT SP AIR is especially appealing if you're looking for a high-quality full-face helmet that's suitable for both sporty riding and longer distances.
De The combination of a de carbon matrix outer shell, Optical Class 1 visors, an integrated sun visor, AirFit en , and the Cool Tech ventilation system makes it clear what Scorpion is aiming for with this helmet.
It is not a pure racing helmet like de EXO-RACE AIR from the same APEX series. De EXO-GT SP AIR places more emphasis on de combination of sportiness en and everyday touring comfort.
This makes it a good fit, for example, for motorcyclists who:
Within the sport-touring segment, this is clearly the de position that Scorpion has chosen for the de EXO-GT SP AIR.
APEX is positioned as a premium series above de the standard Scorpion lines. At de EXO-GT SP AIR, this is evident in virtually all key components of the de helmet: from de the outer shell en aerodynamics to the visor, sun visor, ventilation system en de and finish.
What’s interesting is that Scorpion hasn’t just added extra features. De The manufacturer actually states that it has gone back to de the basics en and further developed essential features such as control, visibility, ventilation en and comfort.
For a sport-touring helmet, that might actually be more important than a long list of features that you hardly ever use in de practice.
With the de EXO-GT SP AIR, Scorpion shows us what to expect from de ’s new APEX series. It is a premium full-face helmet that combines sporty features with technologies designed to offer added value, especially during longer rides.
De Optical Class 1 technology for both the main visor and the sun visor stands out, but the new Cool Tech ventilation system, AirFit, de Lite Force Carbon Matrix outer shell en de and extensive standard features also make de EXO-GT SP AIR an attractive option.
