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.

New Helmet ..!!

Schuberth J2 - Gloss White Schuberth J2 - Gloss White
My second Schuberth helmet ... I wanted an open face for next spring and summer ... After my first one, nothing else will do, I am quite simply, a "convert" ... I ordered three different sizes to try, and they duly obliged by getting all three into the Preston store within 24 hours ..!! Now that's what I call service ... I told the staff ... I'm not buying today .... Now I know I'm a "medium" ... I'll wait a while, and hope the price drops somewhat ... I only waited a couple of weeks, ( must be a lean time in the run-up to Christmas ..!! Guess what... A £90 reduction.. !!! A rather hurried phone call secured a medium one in 24 hours ... Not used yet... will post a review in spring ... Or when it stops raining ..!! PS... Dear Sportsbike Shop, please give ALL of your staff in the Preston store a BIG pat on the back ... They are all very good, and an asset to you ...

Schuberth C5 - Master Grey Schuberth C5 - Master Grey
Having tried most of the similar priced helmets I find this suits me for fit comfort and serviceability with the integrated mesh intercom.
It has almost no wind noise is well ventilated and the visor with pin lock has no distortion.

Schuberth C5 - Gloss White Schuberth C5 - Gloss White
The feel of this when wearing in the store immediately felt good. Comfortable, flexible with the modular design and some great venting options. The original cheek pads were a little small for me, but I reordered with the deeper pads and it fits like a glove. The inbuilt speakers and intercom wiring is an added bonus so I bought the Cardo SC Edge too (saving the VAT). Great fitting and advice from the Reading store team and in fitting the intercom too.

Fit seems very slightly larger than C4 a had, so I used the Sportsbikeshop fitting service and got larger internal pads fitted foc for snug fit.

Schuberth C5 - Gloss White Schuberth C5 - Gloss White
Replacement for my BMW branded helmet. Much quieter and tends to fog up much less even if the cold temperatures at the moment. Ventilation is much better. Integrated intercom is very neat.

No dislikes. Love it. Excellent serice from Sportsbikeshop. Only drawback is trying to register the extendend warranty. It's as though Schuberth have made it as difficult as possible to upload the invoice to avoid the extra 3 years warranty. I have given up trying.

Schuberth C5 - Master Orange Schuberth C5 - Master Orange
Bought to go along with my E1, very quiet took a bit longer to bed in than the e1, but very happy, used on a trip to Spain and Portugal in the summer, vents are good, pinlock needed a slight tweek on the pins to make it better
