Right now I have something special to reveal you, the brand-new Turmodular from AGV. The AGV Tourmodular is a modular helmet from the Italian brand name AGV, known for its quality helmets.
The helmet is positioned as an affordable choice to the AGV Sportmodular, the only full-carbon modular headgear on the marketplace.
Nonetheless, the Sportmodular is additionally one of the most expensive modular safety helmets on the market. Consequently, AGV is now bringing a more economical variation to the market with this Tourmodular.
The headgear provides all the whistles as well as bells you anticipate from a quality modular helmet.
Shell Construction
The shell for this headgear is made from a combination of fiberglass, carbon, and also aramid fibers.
The concept is to maintain the weight down; our range recommends that's functioned because the size tool weighs in at sixteen hundred and seven grams. That's a really commendable weight for a flip-front helmet.
In common trim, it's lighter than either the Schubert C5 or Shoei's Near Tech 2. It's also authorized for the most up to date ECE 2206 safety requirement.
Chin Bar
This helmet's chin bar lifting device functions on the lever on the leading edge simply below the chin vent.
It takes down, and that frees the chin bar to be lifted. The principle is that
you can not knock the button, inadvertently making the chin bar open up.
I swiftly got made use of to opening the front of the cover, which likewise seemed shielded from unintended opening.
A chin curtain is available in package, and its fitting does not interfere with the chin bar mechanism.
I would certainly recommend fitting the chin curtain, as, without it, rather a lot of air winds up swirling around the within the cover. That's specifically the situation if you intend to make use of the communication system.
The excursion modular is dual homologated, so it can lawfully be put on with the chin bar open. (Always check neighborhood laws first).
You require to protect it in the elevated position, and that's a demand for having double homologation in 2206. To do that, you need to make use of the securing activate the right-hand side of the helmet.
Locking picture 3.58
It's an extremely rigid button, which I required my finger nails to run. Likewise, there's no chance I can relocate the button in either direction without taking my handwear cover off, so I definitely couldn't run it while riding.
Riding with a chin bar raised on a headgear similar to this is typically a little a discomfort as it screws up the weight circulation. It also means you can only use the sun visor due to the fact that the primary visors lag the chin bar.
If you're intending to utilize a helmet in an open-face setup for any time, then a flip-over safety helmet would be better.
Due to the fact that you will certainly obtain boosted weight distribution and obtain used to the main visor, this is.
Ventilation
Ventilation on the Tourmodular comes through 3 inlets at the chin.
There's one shaking button in the center and also one on each side that slides out to permit air with inlets on the inner surface of the chin bar.
In addition to the safety helmet, there's a chunky inside story with a moving switch that reveals three inlets that decrease into the interior of the cover.
Air can take a trip with networks in the EPS lining, which escapes through 10 outlet holes in between the EPs as well as the shell.
When I first used this helmet, it was really hot outside, so I couldn't tell if the vents were open or not because any type of air coming through was hot air.
I also had not fitted the chin drape, so a lot of air was distributing before the mouth.
As soon as the temperature cooled and I put the chin cutting in location, I can obtain a far better feel for the air moving through the vents.
Ventilation is respectable and aids awesome points down, but I do not assume it's on par with the Schubert C5, which is the present course leader for ventilation.
Visor
The visor on this cover is just one of the very best things about it. AGV gives some numbers for the peripheral vision. They say you obtain 190 degrees
from left to right for exposure and then 85 degrees from top to bottom of the visor.
The Pinlock insert covers the whole of the visible area. The only little bit I might see was the blurry Pinlock logo in my field of vision, however that was if I stressed to see if there was something visible.
That likewise inserts a Pinlock 120, so it's one of the most safety in regards to anti-miss residential properties, and the pins are conveniently adjusted if you require essentially tension holding the insert in place.
The visor is very easy to change. You draw the lever on the side, and also off it comes, as well as it's also reassuringly thick.
In places, it's four millimeters thick, which is two times the thickness of the typical visor however still gives a crisp aesthetic high quality.
There are six open positions for the visor. Initially, totally up, 2 intermediate actions, one where the visor touches the bottom seal, after that a secured split setting, as well as a completely locked setting. That locked fractured placement is among only ever before seen on Avg.
When you get the visor resting on the bottom seal, you press it somewhat, and also it hooks onto the placing.
The visor has a small opening to let some air through at the bottom, yet it's secured location, so it can't simply open of its independency.
To release it, you push the button underneath to release the hook, and also the visor will certainly lift up. Adapting to using that motion to lift the visor does not take long.
The most effective way I located is to push the button just over the chin vent
with the forefinger and also lift the visor in one motion.
Sun Visor
The sun visor runs on the switch on the left rim of the lid. It takes a somewhat firmer push to make it reduced by the last five millimeters, so if it strikes your nose, you can stop pressing a little, and the visor will certainly sit a little bit higher.
The sun visor isn't anti-mist, which I assume is a pity, as I did have some mild misting in moist conditions with the drape in.
Interior
The interior is extremely comfy, and it's also extremely secure in the means it places inside the lid.
It's made from two different materials of covering. There's a light, smooth product on the cheek pads that AGV telephone call ritmo, as well as there's a brushed velour-like material around the head that they call Shalimar.
The suggestion is to have the smooth product, gliding the lid over your head and also your face, and afterwards the grippy product kicks back the head.
Whatever the intent of it, I located the lining to be very comfortable, and also it additionally handled to sweat well, which was handy, seeing as temperature levels stood up to concerning 38 degrees when I was checking the helmet.
The top pad traditionally places right into the lid, but the cheek pads of a rail system. So they move into place, and then it's safeguarding a lot more with 4 poppers on each pad.
I've had the lining in and out of this safety helmet a few times, and also it still fits really firmly.
AGV never ever states this in their literature, but there's an anti-roll-off system for the retention band, which I've just ever before seen on Schuberth safety helmets.
2 bands run from the chin band and are protected to the rear of the safety helmet with rivets.
They give that extra security, so the headgear won't roll forward and also come off your head when you require it most.
Unless you take the lining out, you 'd most likely never notice the straps, but they are in location, and also I assume it's a truly excellent addition.
Communication System
This helmet includes a reputable system called AGV inside. The AGV inside the communication system is made by Cardo, which I find interesting as it's the first safety helmet I've evaluated that has a Cardo partnership when all the others have been Sener.
The Insider has Bluetooth and Mesh comms procedures, so it's a pretty innovative kit.
I checked this helmet with the com system fitted, and it fits neatly right into the headgear.
The battery ports in behind the neck roll, and also the control module slides into to change a cover on the reduced left side.
I located the buttons a bit difficult to situate, but it uses Cardo's voice control, so it's not a big issue as you can tell it what you want it to do as opposed to pressing the switches.
I had the chin drape off when I evaluated it, as well as it was difficult to make myself listened to since the air disrupted the microphone and also interfered with the audio.
Putting the chin drape made clarity better, yet the connection top quality was still pretty bad.
We've just recently used a collection of various intercoms for these testimonials, and also this system was the one that's offered us one of the most trouble.
If you wish to fit a global com system, I would certainly say it will not be the neatest installation due to the cover on the left edge.
There must be lots of room for the audio speakers in the recesses as they're large sufficient for Carlos's 40-millimeter audio speakers as they're generally the ones that won't match a helmet's recess.
Shell Sizing
The Tourmodular can be found in dimensions from added tiny through to dual XL.
Sadly, AGV has actually gotten rid of its non-traditional approach of using 2 forms of the medium, so now there's simply one.
You currently get a tool as opposed to a medium-small, and also a medium-large like you obtained in the past.
There are 3 shell sizes to cover the helmet dimension variety. The smaller shell covers up to tool, the big safety helmet gets a shell of its own, and afterwards the largest shell is shared in between Excel and double XL.
The are also 4 densities of EPS effect lining, so you should not end up with a substantial helmet on a tiny head.
The AGV Tourmodular satisfies the new tougher EC2206 standard for the road, a plus point for this helmet.
To fulfill that more recent requirement, covers have to go through a wider range of examinations than before, both in regards to various impact speeds and throughout more of the helmet surface.
I believe it's a much better common, and you can be a lot more positive in the security of a headgear that satisfies it.
The AGV Tourmodular flip-front bike helmet flawlessly integrates performance and also style.
With a carbon, aramid, and fiberglass construction, it's the perfect remedy for your next bike trip.
