Scorpion Exo 1500 Carbon Air Platted Black Silver

EXO-1500 CARBON AIR - Full-face touring helmet: the art and science of carbon fiber

Inspired by the proven heritage of the EXO-1400 series, the EXO-1500 CARBON AIR incorporates all the strengths of the EXO-1500 AIR in an ultra-lightweight carbon fiber version. A redesigned aerodynamic shell, a height-adjustable sun visor, and the AirFit system and Pinlock included: the benchmark touring helmet from ScorpionEXO, for riders seeking maximum lightness.

EXO-1500 CARBON AIR Full-Face Helmet: Lightweight and Sophisticated

A high-end touring helmet is judged by its ability to remain quiet, stable, and lightweight mile after mile. That's exactly what the EXO-1500 CARBON AIR delivers, with its carbon fiber shell significantly reducing weight compared to the fiberglass version, without compromising on protection.

Its Ultra TCT Carbon shell combines carbon fiber, aramid, and polyresin to deliver a perfect balance of lightness, strength, and maximum impact absorption. The redesigned aerodynamic shape ensures greater stability and reduces drag for a smoother ride, while the optimized internal architecture effectively blocks out noise--a real plus on long trips. The exposed carbon fiber also gives the helmet a sportier, sleeker look.

In front of you is the scratch-resistant, tear-off-compatible 2D visor, which is designed to accommodate the included Pinlock 120 XLT MaxVision lens, ensuring complete anti-fog protection. The Ellip-Tec II mechanism allows for quick, tool-free visor changes, secured by the Face Shield Lock, and features a "city" position for slight ventilation at low speeds. The SpeedView II internal sun visor is now height-adjustable to precisely adapt to changes in light conditions.

In terms of ventilation, the Aero-Tuned air intakes ensure even airflow and reduce aerodynamic drag, complemented by rear vents and chin ventilation that minimize fogging thanks to the included breath deflector. The AirFit system allows you to inflate the cheekpads for a custom fit in just a few seconds, and the removable, washable KwikWick 3 lining promotes moisture wicking. The helmet is ECE 22.06 SA-certified and compatible with the LINK-1 and LINK-1C intercoms (sold separately).

Why choose the EXO-1500 CARBON AIR?

The main advantage of the EXO-1500 CARBON AIR is its lighter weight compared to the fiberglass version, a real benefit for reducing neck fatigue on long touring trips. Its carbon shell retains all the safety and comfort features of the EXO-1500 line, while offering a sportier look thanks to its exposed carbon fiber.

Its height-adjustable SpeedView II sun visor also makes it a particularly smart helmet for dealing with changing light conditions, while the AirFit system allows for a personalized fit in just a few seconds. Finally, the Pinlock 120 XLT included with purchase eliminates the need for any additional accessories, ensuring worry-free riding in wet weather.

Lightweight and Quiet at High Speeds

The carbon shell significantly reduces the helmet's weight while maintaining the stability and reduced drag provided by the redesigned aerodynamic shape. The optimized internal architecture continues to effectively block out noise, creating a quieter riding environment on long trips.

Visibility and visual comfort

The SpeedView II internal sun visor's height-adjustment system allows you to precisely adjust your field of view when facing a low sun or changing conditions, ensuring comfort and visibility in all circumstances.

Comfort and AirFit Adjustment

The AirFit system, true to the brand's DNA, allows you to inflate the cheekpads to achieve a custom fit in just a few seconds--a valuable feature for riders covering long distances.

Care Instructions

Clean the visor with lukewarm water and a soft microfiber cloth, avoiding any harsh household cleaners that could damage the surface treatments.

The fully removable KwikWick 3 lining is easy to machine wash on a low-temperature cycle. Let it air dry away from direct heat sources.

Regularly check the Ellip-Tec II mechanism, the sun visor adjustment system, and the micrometric buckle to ensure optimal performance over time.
