Schuberth Helmets

retainer straps could do with adjustment buckles, pulls chip strap into your neck. Visor too loose, slaps close with bit of wind. Quietness overhyped a bit. Overall decent quality helmet and comms integration works well.

I had an old BMW front replace and tried one of those modular helmets where the chinbar goes all the way around the back but it didn't perform as hoped so I was back to the flip front option and this was as close to the BMW as I could get and it has not let me down. Fits like a glove, I bought the adjustable internal pads but don't need them so they'll be going back. It's comfy straight out of the box, good and quiet and does exactly what it says on the tin.

I have been wearing this helmet for a couple of years now (not continuously) and until recently it has been my go to lid. It is decent, a good fit, doesnt compress my cheeks etc.
But there are a few things that have slowly annoyed me. For one I find it quite loud. I know its a flip up front but still.
The flip up needs a more positive lock to keep it up. It drops under its own weight too easy unless you put the hard lock on it. This annoys me in petrol stations etc.
I thought the internal speakers were good, until I tried the Sena helmet. By comparison the C5 is tinny and even crackly id say. Phonecalls always come in too loud and distorted.
I do like the helmet. The flip front is practical and the integrated sunvisor is good and easy to operate, unlike some others I have tried.

I maybe just lucky but off the shelf its 100% tailored to my head. They do custom fit with inners being different sizes, like cheek pads with 4mm size difference ? They make all the difference, the best advice I could give is make the effort to go to the shop(preston staff are so knowledgeable)
Wife never had a helmet that is almost made to measure and they had there hands full alteration etc.
Worth the effort and despite the price worth it.you can feel the quality.vents are brilliant, pin lock works,1st ride last weekend 278miles.no discomfort, just a top notch helmet,reduced wind/road/engine noise ? makes intercom seem even more clear and easier to communicate at all legal speeds ?

This is my ideal helmet. It's well built , very comfortable (for me) and it's the first helmet i've had with a peak that doesn't vibrate.

Fantastic choice of suppliers. All sizes and variations available to try before purchase and excellent value.
