SHARK Evo-One 2: “Modular, Integral”

  • The SHARK Evo-One 2 improves the modular concept.

  • Its integral design makes it more convenient and safer.

  • It’s also loaded with a number of useful features.

Modular helmets are convenient but riding with the chinguard flipped up isn’t exactly safe or comfortable. The SHARK Evo-One 2 changes that.

While “normal” flip-up helmets have their chinbars hanging above the face, the Evo-One 2’s can be flipped all the way back for a true jet-type (open-faced) helmet. So, rather than being a modular helmet, it is a true integral-type helmet.

This is achieved by using SHARK’s patented mechanism. However, the Evo-One 2 takes the concept further by opening and closing the faceshield when the chinbar is flipped to open and vice-versa.

Features and highlights:

  • Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) designed compact aerodynamic profile reduces noise.
  • Retractable, removable and magnetized noise-absorbent breath guard.
  • Simple, ergonomic and shock-resistant chinbar locking mechanism.
  • Pinlock MaxVision anti-fog insert included.
  • Impact certification for both the chinbar and integral configuration.
  • Integrated drop-down sun visor.
  • Anti-scratch visor.
  • SHARK visor Auto Seal system which “pulls” faceshield inwards to seal against weather rubber seal.
  • Quick release visor mechanism.
  • Micrometric strap enclosure.
  • SHARK trademark Easy Fit eyeglasses pockets.
  • Removable and machine-washable interior comfort lining.
  • Bluetooth-ready location.

We would to mention that the Auto Seal feature makes a lot of difference in ensuring a tight seal against wind noise and water ingress.

We also found the SHARK Evo-One 2 mighty useful when touring: With the chinbar locked in front in the sport-touring role, and flipped to back when riding in the urban environment with heavy traffic.

The SHARK EVO-One 2 is priced at RM2,060. The price is negotiable so please call the number below for the best deal.

Wahid's lust for motorcycles was spurred on by his late-Dad's love for his Lambretta on which he courted, married his mother, and took baby Wahid riding on it. He has since worked in the motorcycle and automotive industry for many years, before taking up riding courses and testing many, many motorcycles since becoming a motojournalist. Wahid likes to see things differently. What can you say about a guy who sees a road safety message in AC/DC's "Highway to Hell."
