DescriptionThe whole story▼

Please note: sale to France is prohibited.

Escalate TC-2 pairs navy with white and a sharp yellow-green on the forehead intake, according to the manufacturer image. Part 18.08.522.0 is that intake for the X-SPR PRO.

Where it sits and what it does

Besides cooling, the forehead intake is part of the helmet's outer contour. On a helmet whose aerodynamics Shoei tuned with an integrated spoiler, vortex generators and a rear stabiliser with flaps, every shape on the shell plays a role, so a damaged or missing cover is more than a cosmetic issue.

When the old one has to go

Wear builds up slowly: moving parts start to feel loose, edges fade or chip, the print wears at the corners. None of this is dangerous on its own, but it does affect how well the vent works and how the helmet looks. A fresh upper intake cover fixes both.

Before you start

Our advice: let a Shoei dealer or an experienced workshop fit the upper intake cover. They know the helmet and can check the shell at the same time, which is worthwhile after a fall.

A word on colour

Shoei makes this part in many colours and decor prints, and they are not interchangeable visually. Compare the name Escalate TC-2 and part number 18.08.522.0 with your helmet before ordering. The decor name is usually on the box or on the label inside the helmet.

What comes in the bag

Shoei shows this part as a single cover in Escalate TC-2, curved to follow the forehead area, with the slider opening at its centre and small lugs at the ends. That cover is what you receive.

Model and version

Look at the model name on the label inside the helmet or in the manual. If it reads X-SPR PRO, this upper intake cover fits. Shoei's list marks it with the code XPRO; parts coded XPRO2 are intended for the X-SPR PRO 02.
