Introducing Nolan’s newest model: the N100-5. This is the flagship of Nolan’s new collection and also the successor of the N104. We’ll walk you through the specifications of this completely redesigned flip up helmet.

Nolan N100-5 specifications

The Nolan N105 is the seventh generation of their flip up helmet and it is also the successor of the popular N104. The outer shell is made from Lexan, this is a special type of polycarbonate which is stronger than normal polycarbonate helmets. The visor of the N100-5 is now even bigger and wider, this offers you a field of view which is similar to that of an open face helmet.

The ingenious hinge system of the chin bar pivots at two point, resulting in a very compact shape when the chin bar is pointed upwards. This greatly improves the streamlining, and thus the comfort while riding.

Improved visor

The visor is larger than that of the Nolan N104, it offers a much wider field of view. The integrated sun visor is adjustable is 4 different settings, so you can choose how far you would like the visor to come down. The activation system button allows you to quickly raise the sun visor. A Pinlock anti-fog lens is included and pre-installed. This Pinlock lens can be adjusted from the outside of the visor by turning the pins.

N105 interior and neckroll

The neckroll is adjustable with an elastic band. This allows you to fit it snugly around your neck. This will make the helmet more noise resistant and will provide you with a reduced amount of turbulence. Clima comfort interior, perforated lining on the top, type of mesh which allows the air to offer better cooling for the head Renewed cheek pads for a better fit. The interior is removable and washable..

Nolan N100-5 chin bar and safety

The Nolan N100-5 has a dual homologation (P/J) certification. This means that the helmets is approved as an open face helmet and as a full face helmet. So you can safely ride with the chin bar up. The chin bar is equipped with the safer ‘Dual Action’ opening mechanism. To open the chin bar you need your thumb and your index finger. You are still able to open the chin bar with one hand, but thanks to this extra security the chin bar will not accidentally open during a fall.

A similar security measure has been taken in the retention system too. The chin strap is fitted with a microlock system. This system requires the rider to fully lift the clasp to release the buckle. Prepared for communication, the helmet has been ECE approved even with the communication system built in. With ECE certification and Emergency stop signal.
