German helmet maker Schuberth GmbH has announced last September that they will return to the U.S. market during 2011. The first helmet that will be available in North America is the award-winning C3, which made its debut in the European market back in 2008. The DOT-approved helmet features fiberglass composite shell, Bluetooth Communication System, and dual-density EPS liner, which means the foam is softer at the top and harder on the sides.
The C3 also features A.R.O.S. (Anti-Roll-Off-System) which was especially developed by Schuberth is provided as a safety feature in every Schuberth motorcyle helmet. It ensures that provided the chinstrap is closed and correctly adjusted. The C3 will be available in four colours. “Incorporating advanced aerodynamics, acoustics and ventilation the compact and quiet C3 flip-up helmet is a great example of Schuberth’s technology driven product development. With its patented Anti-Roll-Off-System (AROS) and Pinlock visor and its ultra-quite 84 dB(A) noise level at high speeds, the C3 sets new standards in the motorcycle helmet industry,” – says the company.
