Schuberth Helmets

German engineering at its finest, Schuberth motorcycle helmets

Schuberth is a German brand that has a history of producing the very best motorcycle helmets, both in terms of quality of technical design. The company was founded by Franz Schuberth in 1922, who entered the world of protective wear by producing motorcycle helmets for the German military. The company has evolved massively over the years and has expanded greatly, but has always remained true to its original mission of producing the very best head protection technology for motorcycle riders. In the late 1970s, Schuberth took the short-lived decision to specialise exclusively in the production of motorbike helmets. This move cemented their position as a leading bike helmet specialist, and they have been a trusted name in the industry ever since. They've since expanded their offering again to include helmets for other industries, such as the police, fire service, military and other motorsports, with their helmets most famously worn by Formula 1 drivers like Michael Schumacher. One of the things that sets Schuberth apart from other helmet manufacturers is their commitment to reducing wind noise. This is a common issue for riders of all types of bike, and Schuberth has keenly focused itself on technical features to help combat this problem. At the time of writing, they are the only motorcycle helmet manufacturer in the world that has its own acoustic and wind tunnel, which allows them to test and develop helmets that are specifically designed to reduce wind noise. The company takes pride in its "made in Germany" message, and all of their helmets are manufactured in their own facility in Magdeburg, Germany. Schuberth helmets are also now exported to over 50 countries worldwide and remain famous for their durability, comfort, and innovation.

Very comfortable but limited top vent

Schuberth S3 - Gloss White Schuberth S3 - Gloss White
Having only ever been able to get Shoei to fit my head properly I tried the Schuberth for the first time and found it a good fit. It is well made and the built in speakers and microphone was a bonus, no more fiddling trying to install them. I have found the chin vent is great but the top vent doesn't seem to do much, this could be because I wear a buff which covers my ears and top of head. IThe internal visor works well but haven't tried using it on the move yet. think it represents great value for money. I have no idea if the pin lock works but I suspect it will.

Schuberth C5 - Omega Anthracite Schuberth C5 - Omega Anthracite
Really comfortable helmet. I moved to this one from a Shark skwal and the difference is mega. Lots of features, nice smooth catches, and feels great. Supposed to be one of the quietest on the market but im not so sure. Didn't really notice much difference.

Schuberth E2 - Defender Red Schuberth E2 - Defender Red
My benchmark is Schuberth C5 and it's predecessor C4, both good helmets with certain flaws. C5 turned wonky and creaky after 2 years of daily commute and unfortunately developed the leaky visor issue.
E2 is better made, more refined in terms of locking mechanism and visor movement. At low and intermediate peak positions, I have experienced no rattling or significant buffering.
Ventilation is modest, better than C5, easy to fog the
sun visor in cold weather. Definitely not a top adventure hemet, more likely a touring one.
No issues with leaking visor so far. Size XXL feels slightly smaller than C5, nevertheless better fit.
Will see how it goes through winter, so far is the best helmet and a favorite for my long commute.

Feels great. Massive upgrade after AGV. Beautifully finished. Nice and quiet. Con - interior pads removal is extremely over-engineered.

This helmet is very comfortable (for me) & extremely quiet compared to my previous Nex 2, not cheap but to me worth the money.

Schuberth C5 - Globe Blue Schuberth C5 - Globe Blue
This is the third Schubert I’ve had over a period of 13 years.
Tried lots of alternatives but putting the Schubert on it just felt right. Ventilation & visor are much improved on the C5. Visor shape seals better with rolled edge on the top, positive positioning & easy removal for cleaning. Ventilation works really well. Removed pre fitted speakers, just Velcro attached, & installed my old trusty Twins coms system which works well for satnav/phone mapping which is all I use it for.
Spectacle grooves are much more user friendly than the C3.
All in all very pleased with the C5. Usual excellent service from Sportsbike shop staff. Any thanks.
