Part 18.08.522.0 is that intake for the X-SPR PRO.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it sits and what it does\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBesides 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen the old one has to go\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWear 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBefore you start\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA word on colour\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShoei 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat comes in the bag\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShoei 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eModel and version\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLook 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shoei","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54089993355530,"sku":"18.08.522.0","price":49.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/shoei-x-spr-pro-upper-air-intake-escalate-tc-2-replacement-forehead-vent-1.png?v=1794239674","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/shoei-x-spr-pro-upper-air-intake-escalate-tc-2-replacement-forehead-vent","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
