hey shad here with speed addict cycles today we're talking about Swami's new street how I'm at the sr sport this is their brand new top tier helmet full phase Street helmet and it's taken over for the spec 1 R or spec 1 or extreme so this is their new top top-notch deal you'll notice that they've also worked on the price tag their their top-line helmets are now starting a wee bit less than they used to which is nice and let's go over some of the features of this bad boy so they've another thing you'll notice from the spec one are speckle in our extreme is it's missing those side covers swim is kind of known for they've moved away from those they kind of made for tricky shield changes gain those on and off was not not super easy so now they've gone with the naked version kind of like the Vandal it's actually the same exact shield as the Vandal same exact pivot kit and shield mechanism I'll go over that real quick and show you guys how to change one of these visors you'll notice it's much much faster than it used to be back in the day all you have to do is flip this switch out go ahead and rotate it visor up and rotate it towards the back of the helmet and the shield is off same thing other side rotated towards the back of the helmet shields off well I'm throwing on Swami's darksmoke race visor you got to make sure you keep these on the right sides respectively they're marked L and R and just in case you get confused you wouldn't be the first so this is the actually dark smoke race visor all of Swami's visors are anti fog anti-scratch they're anti fog works very well so I'm just going to put this on here so you guys can see how that goes but basically going to put it back on in an open position and go ahead and drop these washers back in spin them into place lock in the shield down so now we got the Swami dark smoke race visor in place and I think that looks pretty sweet so visor mechanism improved ventilation improved the switches are bigger and beefier you know you can work this really easy as a glove on unlike some of their their helmets so we really like that same with the chin ven it's got this hook on it so it's easy to grab when you're riding um we we've noticed that it's ventilate it's ventilating just as well as their old helmets which is exceedingly well compared to some other brands and one of their secrets is the lines are the channeled EPS this this channeled EPS foam is something that swore me and maybe a few other manufacturers do we'll get a nice close-up shot of that so you can see what I'm talking about but there's actual chan chan allure ridges in there EPS that creates a crush zone but also helps the venturi effect and get a real nice ventilation going over the top underneath this rear diffuser if you were to take this off you'll see a couple exhaust vents there so that's real nice you know in their older top-line helmets you cannot turn off some of the ventilation that was underneath that top diffuser this one you can seal it off for those cold nights which is real nice again like I was showing you here removable washable liner removable washable cheek pads and we do stock all different sizes of those if you get your new s or sport it's not right on the money as far as the fit don't worry we we stock all those we can send them out to you free of charge we do free cheat pad swaps and inliner swaps there are two shell sizes in this helmet which means it doesn't run as small as some of the Swami's used to in fact we used to recommend moving up a full size and most swimming helmets and still do that's our sports a little different and you'll probably get away with the same size that you wearing other brands consult the sizing chart go by that sizing chart if you're still not sure call and talk to one of us come in Paul and talk to me or one of the other swimming experts around here will guide you in the right direction they've improved the the bottom surround here you'll notice a different different style kinda f1 style along the bottom they now have this integrated chin curtain along with this new newly designed you know neck roll and bottom of the helmet this chin curtain really helps the keyed noise down we notice this helmet being a lot quieter than some of the old Swami's we like this curtain so that pops in and out and real plush nice soft interior this helmet is ECE 22:05 rated and do T you can wear it on any racetrack in the world for more information on EC 2205 Google and our tow article called blowing the lid off you'll learn about the differences between EC and Snell and that sort of thing so yeah this is a race ready helmet very lightweight you'll notice this is one of their top selling graphics it's called the gamble they've made it for years on some of their other helmets it's back here and this sucker comes in at just over three pounds I think it's usually about three pounds two ounces will throw it on the scale here so you guys can get a shot of that so it's one of the lighter helmets full face helmets on the market today and amongst Swami's lightest full face helmets so that's that's our sport guys thanks for watching and ride safe
