Great helmet

Wind noise is fantastic and fits so snug on the head. When going fast there’s a clear difference between the X.R3R and other helmets in aerodynamics, just simply cuts through the air.

This helmet was an upgrade due to ear pains with my old one. So much better less wind noise. And easy to install an intercom. Overall improvement and made riding enjoyable again. And great service from the guys and girls at Norwich branch.

I wanted to see what the difference is when you spend that little bit more than the average on a helmet, well this ticked all the boxes, at high speed it really does come into its own, wind and noise level acceptable, really pleased with the helmet, as for the sportsbikeshop they never fail, proper service.

The helmet looks great and it should for over £500
However the iridium blue visor scratches really easily and the visor lock switch is very cheap and came off my first helmet but sportsbikeshop replaced the helmet within days so cannot fault them.
All the gear I’ve bought from them have been great just slightly disappointed with nexx build quality.

After a bit of deliberation, having previously had a Nexx helmet I decided on getting another and I'm definitely glad I did. The Nexx X.R3R doesn't disappoint at all. I was a little hesitant at first before taking the plunge. This helmet is a nice comfortable fit and the noise is a lot less than my last helmet. I'd previously read a couple of reviews that stated due to the aerodynamic design it gets better as you pick up speed. They were spot on! I used to find my head bobbing around a bit but thankfully that has lessoned too. Would I recommend this helmet… No! That would mean more people buy one, lol. Seriously though, the look of this helmet is just amazing.
I have to say a big thanks to 'Sportsbikeshop' too! I ordered and was told there'd be a lead time of around 3 weeks, then I was told it'd be even longer. To my surprise the helmet was delivered around 10 days unexpectedly. Would I buy from them again also… most definitely. Thank you guys.

Aerodynamics
An aerodynamic helmet that focusses on speed, improves ventilation, and adds a raft of safety features. Every detail in the outer shell design and external components is designed to reduce the drag pressure and ensure maximum efficiency. Aerodynamically optimised, X.R3R lightweight shell design not only reduces the air resistance but also optimises the air mass flow for cooling the interior. Considerable effort has been made to improve the aerodynamic efficiency of the X.R3R's shell, visor, spoilers and vents design. The X.R3R's complex aerodynamic concept is designed to maximise its performance, with 0 dynamic weight at 160 km/h.

Lightweight
Engineered for the elite motorcyclists and those who are weight conscious, the new X-PRO carbon with 3K carbon fabrics is 10% lighter than other carbon shells and offers higher stiffness and ultimate strength. The high fibre content (≥ 60%) maximises the mechanical properties of the composite shell while the fibre distribution guarantees a uniform strength in all directions together with an exquisite appearance. Everything you'd expect from one of the most advanced carbon fibre helmet technology ever.

Streamlining & Ventilation
At the same time the air resistance is reduced, the air mass flow for cooling the interior is optimised. The air is specifically guided through the top and side vortex to the rear, where its increases the efficiency of the new racing spoiler concept. A translucent race-style spoiler extension can be added to turn the helmet amazingly stable at high speeds. Screw-fixed, this add-on rear spoiler extension presents a break-away design for the maximum safety standards.
On the track, the last thing you want to worry about is the heat on your head. Featuring six air intakes and four exhaust outlets for ventilation, you can have full control over how much airflow you get through the helmet to keep your head as cool as possible under the pressures of track riding. The elongated chin vent shape helps to draw in more air, with an effective channelling system to disperse fresh air across the visor and face area. An extra intake is also incorporated in the lower part, made in anti-vibration rubber and which can be easily open and closed through a switch control from the interior.

Interior
XR3R's modular interior padding is a unique approach to high-speed comfort and stability, enabling individual adjustment of the central padding and cheek pads, for a perfect fit for most head shape. The crown pad it is sewn with a special alveolar mesh that creates a fresh air chamber between the EPS liner and the padding. By gradually releasing and distributing the fresh air around the entire head it creates an extensive cooling feeling at controlled temperatures and relative humidity.
All interior parts, including the neck roll, are fully removable, washable, skin friendly (Anti-allergy and Antibacterial properties), with no stitching in sensitive areas, and feature X-Mart Dry technology - a soft touch and special treatment fabric with a drying rate twice as fast as regular cotton, that helps you to stay cool, dry and comfortable.
Utilising X.R3R's adaptive crown fit system, the crown pad can slide back and forward conforming to the racer's preference for an even 360 fit, eliminating pressure points for maximum comfort and protection - up to a 6 level adjustment design.
The X.R3R Cheek Pads are designed with a special internal pocket which functions as an adaptive system, allowing the rider to fine-tune the pads to a range of different thicknesses to obtain the optimal fit across the cheek area, resulting in a more balanced, safe and agile helmet on the track. To further facilitate customisation the cheek pads are reversible, so they can always be returned to the initial configuration depending on the racers preference.

Visor
The visor reduces a substantial amount of wind noise by allowing good airflow over your face. X.R3Rs comprehensive soundproofing concept includes Vortex generators in the chin area to reduce aerodynamic drag and lift and a double rubber sealing profile around the visor, configured to improve sound insulation.
The special anti-vibration rubber visor plates are designed to absorb and evenly distribute vibrations to nominal levels. They are perfect for helping to reduce noise levels and cancelling the transmission of vibrations to the adjacent structures of the visor. The Recoil Visor System, with its spring-loaded base side plates, auto-adjusts and pulls the shield back against the dual-lip window beading for a perfect airtight seal. The double visor block safety system prevents unexpected sudden opening of the visor shield and can be easily opened while wearing gloves.
X-Sensus Vision, Nexx's philosophy behind the eye port of all their helmets, ensures both Focused Vision and Peripheral Vision - with opening angles 15% beyond the standard requirements. More importantly, it keeps your mind and body free from getting in the way of your racing goal.
Featuring a 225º horizontal field and an 85º vertical visual field, the 2-dimensional shape visor made of unbreakable PC Lexan, optical class I and with an anti-scratch finish, is prepared for the application of tear-offs. Available as an optional accessory, Transitions® smart light visors automatically adapt to the ideal hue in any light condition- staying clear at night and smoky when exposed to strong light- providing a safe and comfortable ride, at night or any time of day.
