Shoei J-Cruise 3 Whizzy TC-5 Black Motorcycle Helmet

COMBINING OPEN FACE FREEDOM WITH UNMATCHED SAFETY AND COMFORT.

SHOEI continues its legacy of innovation with the all-new J-Cruise 3, an advanced open face helmet designed for both urban and long-distance riders.

Delivering a remarkable 70% improvement in ventilation over its predecessor, the J-Cruise 3 ensures maximum comfort, even in the hottest conditions. Shoei's integrated Comlink system allows riders to enjoy seamless communication without compromising the helmet's sleek aesthetics, eliminating the turbulence typically caused by externally fitted devices.

The J-Cruise 3 is meticulously crafted to deliver both functionality and style. Featuring three distinctive upper air intakes, the helmet enhances aerodynamic performance, while the ribs around the visor bases add to its aesthetic appeal and impact-absorbing capabilities.

DESIGN

The J-Cruise 3 boasts a sporty, sophisticated shell design ideal for premium touring. The helmet features three distinctive upper air intakes and a top air outlet, enhancing the design's flow from front to rear and creating a cohesive look. The ribs around the visor bases not only add to the aesthetic but also improve impact absorption. Compared to previous models, the J-Cruise 3 offers a more refined and sporty appearance.

INTERIOR

The interior combines moisture-absorbent, quick-drying material with soft raised fabric, ensuring optimal comfort. The upper part of the cheeks and forehead, where sweat accumulates, are covered with quick-drying material, while areas prone to rubbing use soft fabric. The lower cheek pads are reinforced with durable, leather-like material for added longevity. The centre pad includes a pocket system for adjustable fitting.

VISOR SYSTEM

The CJ-2 visor provides a clear field of vision with minimal distortion and is specifically designed for open-face helmets. A rib at the bottom edge prevents wind ingress and increases visor rigidity. The secure visor locking mechanism ensures the visor stays closed, with an easy release system for convenience. Airtight window beading prevents water and wind from entering the helmet.

SUN VISOR

The QSV-2 inner sun visor meets high optical performance standards, comparable to EN1836, the European standard for sunglasses. It features an anti-fog coating and can be easily operated using a durable wire mechanism. The PINLOCK® EVO lens is available as an option to prevent fogging in challenging conditions.

VENTILATION

Enhanced ventilation performance is achieved through improved upper air intake and top air outlet designs, tested in SHOEI’s wind tunnel facility. The three air intake holes are strategically placed for maximum efficiency, increasing airflow by about 70% compared to the J-Cruise II.

COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Like the NEOTEC3 and GT-Air, the J-Cruise 3 is compatible with SHOEI COMLINK. The helmet is designed to seamlessly integrate the SENA® SRL3 communication system without compromising its design.

CHINSTRAP

The new micro ratchet chinstrap is more compact and lightweight than its predecessor, improving comfort around the throat. Made from durable stainless steel, the buckle locks securely and can be easily operated even with gloves on. The high-strength, high-elasticity fibre used in the chinstrap ensures it is both slim and strong.
