User questions & answers

Question:	Is this helmet worth the $$$ comp. to other helmets for 1/2 the price
Answer:	I've had three helmets over the years and this is the only one I've worn consistently because I forget I have it on. Very light and comfortable. Less durable when abused though. Don't know if that makes it worth the extra $ or not.
Question:	Is this nfpa or rescue certificated
Answer:	This is a rock climbing helmet. Currently Black Diamond does not make any helmets that are ANSI or NFPA Certified. In the realm of NFPA there are several certifications such as if it is a fire helmet or a rescue technician helmet. In the rescue realm it depends on the particular needs and work as to the type of certification. Generally a UIAA and ANSI rated helmet will meet almost all standards.
Question:	Does this have a clip to hold the goggle strap
Answer:	It has a clip to hold a headlamp. I suspect that would also work for goggles.
Question:	Are there headlamp clips on this helmet
Answer:	No, but you can use piece of webbing. The helmet is light cool and comfortable great all around helmet.

The original Arai SZ open face sport helmet was born in 1988. Now 30 years later the RAM-X comes with the VAS-Z Pro Shade System shield pursuing protection in an evolutionary form that strives for glancing off. The open face that evolves everything: ventilation, interior, liner, and shell, bringing even more comfort as a touring model. The new Ram-X raises the bar for the next generation of protection.

Notice: Fluorescent and/or bright finishes fade over time and exposure to sunlight. This is normal and is not covered by warranty.

RAM-X FEATURES

COMPLETELY REDESIGNED SHELL AND SHIELD SYSTEM

The RAM-X features the newly developed VAS-Z shield system, with a lower pivot point that allows the shell to be smoother in the temple area improving the helmet’s ability to slide more smoothly should it contact the ground or obstacles, contributing to gains in protection. This lower pivot position is possible due to the dual-pivot assembly, creating a “Variable Axis System” for which the system was named, allowing the shield to function where a single pivot could not.

RAM-X FIT

 

The RAM-X has Arai's INTERMEDIATE OVAL (IO) interior fit shape.*

*A Helmet needs to be tried on in order to determine a proper fit.

CERTIFICATION

Meets or exceeds D.O.T. and Snell standards.

5-year limited warranty

All Arai helmets are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship, and are serviceable only for the properly fitted first user for 5 years from date of first use, but no more than 7 years from date of manufacture.

Sizes: XS - XXL
