Source: content.schuberth.com (verified 2026-08-01) · corroborated by shop.schuberth.com. Schuberth's own DOT-market datasheet PDF gives weights by size band (1780 g at 51/53, 1790 g at 55/57/59, 1910 g at 61/63, 1900 g at 65 — the 55/57/59 mid-band figure of 1790 g is used as the representative weight, implying 4 physical shell sizes), a $1099 solid-colour / $1199 graphics US recommended retail price, DFP fiberglass-plus-basalt shell construction, and P/J + ECE-R 22.06 homologation (Schuberth's first helmet to carry it). Schuberth's EU shop product page corroborates the model identity, a pre-wired plug-and-play SC2 communication-system mount (used for bluetooth_ready=true; the SC2 unit itself is sold separately), an available Pinlock 120 anti-fog lens, a customizable/removable inner lining, and shows the €699-and-up EU price; the fetched product photo (a graphic colourway clearly labelled 'C5' on the shell) was visually confirmed. Neither source states a single intake/exhaust vent-count integer, so ventilation_ports is null.
