4 Star  Great with glasses, 31 Aug 2009

I wear glasses, so have had trouble in the past with not being able to get them on under helmets. I was advised by a friend to get a helmet with a flip up face and this works brilliantly. I was slightly worried about the inner smoked visor not coming down over them but this is fine, and its plenty dark enough for even the sunniest of days. The only small problem is that there is quite a bit of wind noise at higher speeds.

5 Star  Caberg Top lid!, 17 Aug 2009

Easy to order and due to complications at work the company were fantastic about organising delivery around me. Brilliant, I have recommended the company to my biker mates, the only online bike store i need, tops! Caberg trip helmet is excellent quality for the money too, again I'd recommend it to my mates.

Great quality for the price, fits great, looks the nuts. Only down side, it is slightly on the loud side, would not recommend use on big sports bikes.

5 Star  Superb!, 16 Jul 2009

Ok, 15 years since I last wore a helmet so this was going to be interesting. Tried one on in a local shop and checked my size...(Priced at 230euro) then ordered online. Fits perfectly, the only issue I have is the chin strap, tends to be uncomfortable even with neck scarf. I got very little turbulance at speed but a little wind noise. Overall very pleased. Service from SBS is impeccable, will purchase here again.

4 Star  Caberg Trip - Matt Black, 15 Jun 2009

Nice helemt bought it as a replacement to my GT that I dropped on to my toolbox and didnt want to spend another

Tim - South Wales

4 Star  Great product, would recommend to others, 29 May 2009

This is my second TRIP (first was stolen) and I did feel that the chin strap was a bit on the tight side on the first one, however this one is perfect. Really good helmet overall, relatively quiet and a snug fit. The sun visor is really good for when the sun gets too much. I must add that the flip functionality is a bit flawed on this one as it does not lock into place hence is not suitable for riding or paying at the petrol pump. I am still happy with the purchase as it provides good visibility, doesn't fog up and is good value for money.

NR - London

5 Star  Excellent Helmet. Would highly recomend., 15 May 2009

Good quality helmet with lots of features. Was particularily impressed by the No Fog visor. One small issue found is that the lifting front does not lift far enough to make for safe riding . Happy buyer. Very impressive service, thanks SportsBikeShop

5 Star  Great Product, great price and nice free bee, 14 May 2009

Well constructed helmet with a quality finish, the internal visor feature is a really useful and the helmet is suprisingly quite! My previous helemt was a full face and this is quiter than that (agv Airtech) also this lid has a 5 star rating from SHARP the new government helmet rating scheme go to the website for more (google - SHARP)

Stephen Gough - Wolverhampton

4 Star  Great Product, 17 Apr 2009

This is my first flip lid and I have to say how pleased I am with it. After reading the reviews on this site and several others I decided to take a chance that this lid would be suitable for me. Generally I find that the shape of my head (being slightly oval) creates a squeezing effect on my forehead which, after a while becomes increasing uncomfortable. I am pleased to say that this was not the case with the Trip. It had been mentioned that the Trip tends to suit round to slightly oval shaped heads and that a slight tight feeling on the forehead would soon mould itself to suit, which it has, and is now very comfortable. I always ride with earplugs but will comment that the Trip doesn't appear unduly noisy in comparison to my Shoei full face. The chin strap is easily adjustable and comfortable and the flip down tinted visor works really well. The only reason I haven't given this a 5 rating is that the chin guard is closer to my chin than I would like (and NO I'm not a Jimmy Hill look alike) an extra 5mm would have been perfect. With a Sharp 5 star rating and under £100.00 you can't go wrong. I should also mention the service by SPORTSBIKESHOP.CO.UK was exceptional all the items I ordered arrived within 2 days in tip top condition.

Paul - London

3 Star  Average quality, could be better, 9 Apr 2009

The edge of the tainted visor is sharp and hurts when it hits your nose, the visors in general have a cheap feel.

Sam Whelan - Evesham

5 Star  Fab!, 16 Mar 2009

Bought this as a replacement for my previous Caberg Trip. The padding and chin strap seem to have been improved (all seem to have been upgraded) as is the 'travel' on the flip visor. This now comes down far enough - before it wasn't quite there - but this is excellent. (The whole visor set up is adjustable in any case but this was an improvement straight out of the box). Very pleased with the helmet - I'm out on the bike everyday and the Caberg is perfect - great value!

5 Star  Amazing product, 12 Mar 2009

Brilliant quality only surpassed by the high standard of customer service. Fits perfectly and have used it in various weather conditions and has never caused a problem. The cleaning kit supplied was a nice extra and when delivered the helmet holder was again an additional surprise. Overall a highly recommended great product at a bargain!

4 Star  Good value for money, 24 Dec 2008

Can get this helmet on and off without removing my glasses! Comfortable to wear, quiet enough for my needs, tinted inner visor maybe a gimmick, but haven't had opportunity to try it yet.

Martin - Romford

5 Star  Very good helmet, does not fog up in the cold!, 22 Dec 2008

This is a very comfortable helmet, with the added bonus that it does not fog up in the cold weather. The easy reach sun visor is fantasticaly useful.

Trevor - Waltham Abbey

4 Star  Great product, 9 Dec 2008

Quality seems very good though will reserve judgement as its a Christmas present. Good fit.

Nicholas Wells - Fareham

5 Star  I love this helmet, 3 Dec 2008

I've never owned a bike or a helmet before, and I bought this one on the recommendation of a friend. It's great. It fits comfortably, and the combination of a movable visor and liftable chin-guard is such a great benefit. Everything that moves does so smoothly and easily, and the helmet as a whole has a feeling of sturdiness and quality.

Ben - Ely

5 Star  Partner only tried it on, said it's very comfy, 2 Dec 2008

It's a Christmas present, but he said that it is a good fit and that the air vents are an improvement on his previous helmet. Looks very stylish. Seems to be good value for the money. Only hope that he never has to test how strong it is.

Kathleen Foster - Wheatley Hill

Matthew Baker - Haverfordwest

5 Star  Brilliant helmet for me, thoroughly recommend it., 5 Nov 2008

I wear glasses and wanted this helmet for the sun visor and flip front. I had to modify the sun visor with a Dremmel because I have a big nose and it now fits like a dream! This is a great product and your service is first class.

Paul Scully - Peacehaven

4 Star  Not the best but great price, 3 Nov 2008

I was after a good, reasonably priced flip face helmet and thats exactly what I got. Its not the best helmet i've had but for the price its pretty damn good. Having tried the Trip and the GT, the Trip is superior and i'd say you'll be looking at paying at least twice the price of this to get anything better.

Philip - London

5 Star  Great product, just what I needed, 30 Oct 2008

I was looking for a decent front flip helmet at a reasonable cost and after a good look around I settled on this one. The fit is perfect and the look great. No real problems with noise maybe I'm in the minority.

Christopher Waldie - Ramsgate

4 Star  Great looking helmet, 28 Oct 2008

The helmet itself looks great and is very comfortable, it's built in sun glasses make life much easier. However the helmet is quite noisy.

Robet House - Melksham

4 Star  Good product, 22 Oct 2008

I brought as I wear glasses,its good in this respect- in line with other reviews wind noise is more than you expect but I wear ear plugs so not too bad. Would advise anyone to try this helmet on first as I find it tight around the chin. Helmet is stable at speed which is a nice bonus. Good quality for £90 Quid

Paul Luff - Hailsham

3 Star  Very noisy, 15 Sep 2008

This helmet fits well and looks good,but I cant see me keeping it for to long, it is far to noisy(like the aftermath of a motorhead concert), a cheap open face I had before was even quieter.

Trevor Stevens - Belper

4 Star  Caberg Trip, 5 Sep 2008

Very good helmet, a bit short on the chin but overall good, someone told me that the visor seal is rubish and rain goes inside the visor but this is a lie, its fine. I payed for next day delivery but it came a full week after dispatch so if you are thinking of buying this helmet I would go with the free delivery. Dispatch time was fine so UPS is probably to blame, overall good helmet.

5 Star  Brilliant product, 5 Aug 2008

This helmet is excellent value for money and the build quality is superb. It has great ventilation and is very comfortable to wear. I wear glasses so the flip up front really suits me. Would highly recommend this lid!

Paul Summers - Kilmarnock

5 Star  Great looking lid, 25 Jul 2008

Fits well and is comfortable, well vented and the open face saves messing about at shops or security gates etc. It looks mint too.

5 Star  Highly recommended!, 25 Jul 2008

Totally delighted with all aspects of this helmet. The internal sun visor is very handy and the flip up front is excellent as I wear glasses and now don't have to take them off to put on helmet. The sun visor doesn't interfere with my glasses either. The only negative point about this helmet in Matt Black is that as with anything Matt Black it smudges easily.

Anonymous - Wick

5 Star  Good all rounder, 19 Jul 2008

This lid is perfect for me as I wear specs I can leave them on when putting it on or taking it off. Besides that its well made and looks great with plenty of ventillation. The finishing touch is the drop down inner tinted visor!! Just a good value bone dome........

5 Star  Excellent helmet for the price, 8 Jul 2008

This is a good value budget helmet, nice design and looks. Built in sunvisor is great. Everything is easy to operate. Only problem I had was one of the catches for the flip front wasn't locking but I fixed that rather than return helmet. Only fault I can find is the strap rubs into my neck because the cushioning part is not fixed to the strap or long enough. A needle and thread should sort that though. Liked this helmet so much I bought the wife a Justisimo which seems slightly improved from this design but I preferred the looks of this one. Have previously had £300+ helmets but can honestly say I prefer this one. Top service from sportsbikeshop too, really fast delivery.

Steven Martin - Irvine

5 Star  Excellent product, glad I bought this one, 6 Jul 2008

Very comfy helmet to wear, the sun visor is a brilliant feature use it loads, the lift up face section is also easy and a great feature.

Anonymous - Leyland

4 Star  Good value for money, 5 Jul 2008

Build quality is what you'd expect for the price. The design is very good. It's comfortable and the built in sun visor is a very useful addition. Ventilation is fine and you can always open the main visor to the first click position which improves ventilation when moving slowly during the city commute. The flip lid is easy to operate even with gloves on. Very pleased with the helmet and also the speedy service from sportsbikeshop.co.uk.

Colin Walker - Thornton Heath

5 Star  A skid lid that impresses, 2 Jul 2008

I have recently returned to motorcycling and needed a new helmet, after searching endless sites, shops and the loft I came across this helmet. What a comfortable, practical and eloquent design. Good ventilation and in built shades one flick of the wrist (but not at speed) and the glare is gone, also paying for go go juice is no longer a hassle with the aid of a 1 push button application and hey presto an open faced lid. If I ever need to replace this lid it will certainly be for another Caberg and probably the the same model.

Paul Benton - Dudley

5 Star  Exellent product for very acceptable price, 28 Jun 2008

Helmet that I've bought is really nice: functional, good looking and high quality. I would recommend for people who's life is tightly related with bike sport and entertainment. I am really happy because of product I have received.

Viktoras Cerniavskis - Vilnius

5 Star  Exellent piece of kit with the double visor tech, 27 Jun 2008

Exellent love the tinted internal visor, cant fault this helmet at all the one thing I can think of is if you are a fusy person the colour matt black attracts fingerprints but can easily be sorted with the metallic colour which sportsbikeshop supply with the helmet for free, and this is the only site I found this same product the cheapest on the net.

5 Star  Excellent Helmet, 19 Jun 2008

Comfortable & lightwieght, have used for 1 week before review, can't fault it clear visability the visor just refuses to mist up whatever the weather. The built in sun visor is a godsend esspecially with the good old British weather. Sportsbikeshop where extremelly helpful with me even when I co**ed up my order. I was looking a Caberg Trip for about 3 months and found Sportsbikeshop the cheapest on the net. If you are looking for a new helmet look no further.

5 Star  Can't believe the quality for the price, 11 Jun 2008

I was unsure that this helmet would be as good as the other reviews. I haven't been disappointed. The build quality is sound, the flip lid works well, wind noise is not to bad. Love the built in sun visor. Would recommend as a good touring helmet.

Geoff Hoyland - Stockton-on-tees

4 Star  Great value for money, 6 Jun 2008

Feels good and looks good. The front opening and built in sun visor are great for long trips. Only problem is changing the main visor, not as easy to remove as some other helmets, which can be a pain when cleaning all the bugs.

DD - Switzerland

4 Star  Works well at an excellent price, 4 Jun 2008

The helmet is well made and fits comfortably except that it feels a littlte too tight on the cheeks. The built-in sun visor is superb - I would not want to go back to using a helmet without this feature. My only criticism is that I suspect the ventilation may be inadequate on really hot days.

Alan Tomkinson - Looe

5 Star  Great helmet, delivered quickly for best price., 4 Jun 2008

Caberg Trip is a great helmet; comfortable to wear for long rides, great integral sun visor so no faffing with sunglasses, removable washable interior liner (removable inside makes installing audio kit a doddle too). If you want a flip front helmet you could spend hundreds on other makes or a fraction of that on this one. You wont regret it. I already have a Caberg Trip and wanted this as a spare/pillion helmet and Sportsbikeshop.co.uk was the best price I could find on the net.

Colin Seddon - Reading

4 Star  Great product, 4 Jun 2008

This helmet lets you use the flip front and full face features easily and with a single hand move. The best part is the built in shades visor, easily operated with the slide on the top of the lid. Brilliant.

Neil Pinnock - Bridgnorth

5 Star  Fantastic!, 2 May 2008

A feature packed skid lid at a price that's right, and with the measuring instructions from sportsbikeshop, it fit perfectly first time! A few seconds of familiarisation and i soon got the hang of the visors and built in shade arrangement, dead easy! Now the weather is coming nice again, i cant wait to try out the open face and shade down feature of the lid. Together with the complementary cleaning kit, this is an unbeatable bargain!
