Advice & Guides Stuck on whether to go full-face or open-face? Flip-overs let you have both in one lid...
Customers praised the helmet’s excellent versatility, comfortable fit and lightweight feel, with the 180-degree flip mechanism making it easy to use open or closed. Visibility, airflow and visor performance were also highlighted, along with a secure, practical design for riding in different conditions. A few mentioned some wind noise and a slightly fiddly chin strap or fastening, but overall they found it well made, good value and highly recommended.
Love this helmet. Looks great, fits nicely, lovely padding and easy to use features.
Does everything well. This is to replace my previous Advant X and have to say I’m impressed. Easy flip over mechanism. Comes with pin lock, clear and dark visors, helmet bag and carry bag. Great value helmet.
I give my wife this helmet for birthday gift and she is so amasing happy with the helmed and the Sportbikeshop is so cool sendit ower to Iceland and i have the helmed before the Birthay :)
I wanted to get a flip over helmet to use on while riding my trail bike , sport bike shop reduced the price to £225 , so l pushed the button , it came well packed , and complete with a spare smoked visor , pin lock helmet bag & a ruck sack to carry a helmet , quality was a lot nicer than l was expecting, the fit for me was at first quite tight around my cheeks , but this soon passed , fit is now very good , I bought a medium , for me this was true to size , the chin bar mech is easy to get on with as is the drop down sun visor , i love riding with the helmet open faced it's just so nice , l find it rides quietly in all positions ( I ride with ear plugs all the time ) , this helmet is now my go to lid ,
Great fit and high spec for the money. Always been a Shoei guy but this has changed my mind.
The fit is great. It's comfortable and warm while being well ventilated. Easy to remove and fit the visor and a flip lip which is solid and smooth.
The lift latch for the visor is top centre which is different from every helmet I have used and takes some getting used to.
For me this is also the 3rd Advant X under warranty replacement due the rubber seal around the visor peeling away from the lid. This is not just the rubber coming away but the paint along with it.
Love the helmet, relatively a good fit but I did walk around the store for 10 minutes, longer the better to get a feel of any helmet. Only 4 * as the lining doesnt fit the same on both sides, constantly having to correct its position but otherwise a good helemt. Good ventilation. Competitively priced and great customer care as always from SBS
Good quality helmet ,surprisingly light and quiet ,good fit only, downside is the other half thinks it’s amazing and she wants one as well ?
It’s a good helmet! Easy to open and flip over the front.
The photo is me wearing it for an hour to make sure it was fully comfy, as recommended by Sue (when I picked it up at Milton Keynes)
Helmet is great fits and works well
Replaced my old shark flip over with a scorpion exo and I hated it, very noisy uncomfortable after an hour, so I got the ls2 and immediately it was better less noisy air vents that work simple visor removal the flip is simple to use and so far reliable , chin strap release is good once you get used to it
I really like the ease of use, when moving to and from open to full face and back, I also like built in sun visor, its also very comfortable considering its new and not fully bedded in, I can't really think of any negatives, I should have purchased one of these ages ago.
I bought this for my partners birthday and he couldn't be happier with the fit and look of it. He said it is extremely comfortable and loves the sun visor which drops down in place. I don't think he could have made a better choice
Great quality fit and finish, with some fabulous details, however I’ve given 3 stars due to the wind noise over 50. I’m already thinking of a different helmet for longer journeys.
The flip up and dark visor are brilliant and make it the perfect city / courier helmet.
Is very comfortable and versatile but wind noise is very high
My last few helmets have been Arai and the Advent X fitted me perfectly. Great value and once you get used to the visor being raised at the top and moving the chin piece over your head, it is a really good helmet. No problem with the slightly extra weight
Having had two previous modular helmets I really like the flip over feature of this one. It also feels much better quality than my previous Nolan N90S and the Caberg that preceded it.
Excellent helmet, loving the extra flexibility with the flip-over action. My phone even recognises me without having to take off my helmet now. Excellent service from SBS, once again, fitting a Cardo and finding the misplaced pinlock.
