Our new and first emergency call system for motorcycle riders has arrived at retailers. The new Schuberth RiderEcall is available from now at specialized retailers and at all Louis stores.

RiderEcall POS 2

A presentation display has been especially created for the new system: an explanation video is being played on the integrated video-screen and a 6 pages- flyer provides an overview and all the informations about the product.
Of course the sellers are at your disposal to advise you. And they are highly motivated, as you can see here at Börjes Biker Outfit in Augustfehn.

With the SR1 into the IDM- season 2013

The waiting is over. With the first free practise in the class of superbikes at the Lausitzring, the IDM has heralded the motorsport season 2013.

Our test pilots Erwan Nigon (Van Zon Remeha BMW), Arie Vos (Van Zon Remeha BMW) and Stefan Nebel (BMW Wilbers Racing) have already driven their first laps at the Lausitzring. Our Schuberth Racing-coordinator Robert has personally handed the new helmets, so that our drivers make a successful start into the new season.

Arie Vos - Stefan Nebel - Erwan Nigon

We particularly look forward to an exciting duel between the reigning German Champion Erwan Nigon and the two-times German Champion Stefan Nebel (both BMW).

May the best win!

THE RACB-Team – Young SF1-Drivers

Since several years we do support the RACB – The national Team of Royal Automotive Club Belgium.
Three of the belgian drivers are supported with our SF1 auto racing helmet!:

Bertrand Baguette will race in the WEC (FIA World Endurance Championship) in 2013
Maxime Martin does race GT1 and Endurance Series
Stoffel Vandoorne will race in the Formel Renault 3.5 but much more promising is his acceptance to the Mclaren Young Driver Programme

For the new season we had the chance to collect some shots of the guys and some great sets with the Schuberth SF1 – Good luck to you for 2013 !

# 3 Did you know… A.R.O.S.

that all Schuberth helmets are equipped with the additional safety feature A.R.O.S.?
AROS is the abbreviation of Anti Roll-Off-System. The system consists out of 2 additional safety strips which fixes the chin strips to the rear side of the helmet shell.

The A.R.O.S. ensures that in case of an accident the helmet cannot pivot of the head from behind. Beside this the system minimize the risk of a contact between the chin section of the helmet and the chin or throat of the rider. It also reduces the consequences of the helmet coming in contact with the chest of the driver.

ECE-Test setup

We test the safety characteristics of A.R.O.S. in our testlab on a regular basis. The test is done with a helmet fixed on an according test set. It is then coupled to a 10kg weigth via a deflection roller. The ECE-Standard specifies the weight to be dropped from 75cm height which pulls the helmet abruptly forward.

According to ECE-standard the helmet is allowed to pivot a maximum of 30degrees. Thanks to the AROS the Schuberth helmets pass this test with a maximum of 17 degrees – in the case you see in the picture we even reached 15 degrees.
