Icaro 2000 – Exclusive Sports Helmets
Solar X 2 owner's manual

In fact, if these helmets are worn without headphones, a large portion of the contact surface, which contributes
considerably to the helmet's stability on the head, is missing.
So if you try on the helmet with the headphone cups in the open position, the helmet will feel unstable.
In addition, the headphones are part of the certification, and so a helmet of this type worn without
headphones cannot be considered as certified.
Structure of the Solar X 2 helmet
Outer shell
Solar X 2 is made with an outer shell in 3mm polycarbonate to ensure the highest possible
o
standards of safety. Polycarbonate gives the outer shell high perforation resistance,
strength, elasticity, and lightness. The photo below shows the two outer shells, for sizes
54-59 on the left, for sizes 60 and 61 on the right. The smaller outer shell is 222 mm in width,
the larger version is 236 mm in width. A minimal difference, just 14 mm. But this was essential
for passing the stringent impact tests required for EN 966 certification.
Outer shell edging finish
We have improved the finish of Solar X 2 by developing a method of sewing a fabric strip
o
around the edge of the outer shell, instead of the conventional rubber edging strip. The result
is unique, durable and very attractive.
