Safety

Anti-Roll-Off System (A.R.O.S.) especially developed by SCHUBERTH is provided as a safety feature in every SCHUBERTH motorcycle helmet. It ensures that, provided the chinstrap is closed and correctly adjusted, the helmet cannot pivot off the head from behind the risk of contact between the chin section of the helmet and the chin or neck of the rider is minimised due to the small angle of tilt the consequences of the helmet coming into contact with the chest as the result of an accident are reduced.

High-performance aerodynamics

The C3 is the new generation flip-up helmet. It stands out from the crowd at all times through its advanced aerodynamics and agreeable riding characteristics. New generation flip-up technology from the SCHUBERTH wind tunnel makes your next touring journey a sheer riding pleasure.

• Aerodynamic shape
• Directionally stable
• No oscillatory tendency
• No buffeting

Aeroacoustics

All SCHUBERTH motorcycle and helmets are developed and optimised under scientific conditions in the SCHUBERTH wind tunnel. Owing to its outstanding aeroacoustic characteristics, the C3 is the ideal helmet for touring.

• Extremely quiet due to integrated acoustic collar and anti-noise pad
• < = 84 dB(A) at 100 km per hour (with closed machines)
• Safety principle: the reduced noise level assists the rider's concentration and attentiveness.

Ventilation

The C3 incorporates an effective and powerful ventilation system which enables up to seven litres of fresh air to be supplied per second when travelling at 100 km/h.

• Chin vent
• Variable pad system
• Visor vent
• Air intake

Seasonal

Summer and winter: The positioning of the pad system can be adjusted, enabling fast and easy adaptation of in-helmet head ventilation according to seasonal weather conditions and personal preferences.

O² ventilation

In cold weather it often occurs that with closed air supply the motorcyclist's neck zone becomes sealed off by hoods, scarves or neckerchiefs. The concentration of carbon dioxide inside the helmet is a key safety criterion for preventing symptoms of fatigue and the thinning of breathable air. No negative effects on health need be feared as long as the CO² concentration remains below 3.5 %. The maximum level of CO² concentration at the workplace is 0.5 % Even when the neck zone is sealed off by hoods, scarves or neckerchiefs, this helmet guarantees that the CO² concentration remains below the 0.5% limit as from a speed of approx. 30 km/h. In cases where the helmet is completely sealed off by hoods, scarves or neckerchiefs, the visor ought to be opened (city-travel position) for safety reasons when idling, for example at traffic lights, or travelling slowly.
