Verified Customer Reviews for Shark Evo ES
Great helmet, snug fit, comfy secure fittings
This is the second shark modular helmet I have had, and it has improved since my last one. The helmet is very well made (strong, sturdy and very good quality). It offers a great field of vision in full helmet mode and an airy open feeling in the flip up mode. With built in areas for the shark tooth Bluetooth/intercom system this is an all-round excellent helmet for any type of rider.
I went to the store in Bristol to try this on, which helped as I had been looking at the AGV Tourmodular, but couldn't get a good fit. The Shark Evo ES fits better than my previous helmets (almost ripping my ears off mind! But I know that'll get better with time). It looks big width ways, and is heavier than standard helmets, but neither of these are issues for me. The vents, the sun visor, and all round vision are great. No steaming up yet, but we'll see what the winter brings. No pinlock, which bothers me.
Noise is good, certainly better than my previous Shark helmet.
My only issue is that the chin bar is fiddly to open and close, which can be an issue when you try to adjust it on the move. It doesn't always lock shut, and has also felt jammed open on a couple of occasions. Otherwise it's still my favourite helmet that I've owned in the last 15 years. I paid £275 at, Sportsbikeshop
My third Shark Evo style helmet, just love 'em, my head must be a Shark head, fit and comfort great, ease of use great, noise levels more than acceptable, build quality very good, versatility between open and full face excellent, I have big touring bikes and this fits my needs perfectly.
It was just what I was looking for very comfortable
Moved from a Caberg duke 2 to the shark, liked the option of the chin guard folding our of the way.
Firstly Sportsbikeshop did a good price match and even after not paying for postage it arrive Sunday afternoon less than 24 hours after ordering it. I do like getting my bike equipment from them.
Really like the helmet, vision is better, the visor is really clear, the sun visor comes all the way down, it did touch my nose at first but as the helmet liner shapes to my head that is no longer an issue. Sizing seem about right although it is a little snug at the moment, once warn in it will be fine, next size up would have been loose. Vision to the sides is better that my last helmet.
Noise is no better that my last helmet, but for a flip helmet I did not really expect it to be great. Getting the chin guard to lock into place is a little bit of a pain, maybe just me but it does take a few tries at the moment. With the chin guard folded back it really does give you that open face option although getting it back into the locked in position is a bit of a challenge while on the move as the release button is difficult to press. Outside helmet size looks smaller than the caberg.
Overall pleased with the helmet at the price I paid, I would buy it again, a few niggles but that could be just my technique with an unfamiliar helmet.
Upgraded from the Evoline series 3
And next size up , which fits perfect, as the medium with the chin bar in place was too tight over a few hours, particularly when wearing sunglasses.
The ES in comparison has superior ventilation, visor didn't mist up, good vision , great quality helmet at an affordable price.
As always fantastic service from Sportsbikeshop.
Been looking for a one helmet does it all and this is very close and at a great price.
This is my second Shark Evo and love the style. Great helmet at a great price. A++++
I've not done any really long days in the helmet yet but the ability to change from full face to open face and back again whilst on the move is a revelation. It is comfortable and secure without being claustrophobic. So far, very impressed.
Bought two, one each for me and my wife to replace our old Cabergs. What a difference, quiet, good fit and looks good with the chin guard up and down. Best helmet I've ever had.
Seems a very flimsy compared to Evo3 ,time will tell Not worn for any distance yet .
I use to ride with a Nolan N100-5 for years and loved that helmet, But over time it got old, parts worn out, and stopped locking shut... it was a good helmet for 6 ish years old.
I wanted one of these Evo type helmets for sometime, it's a compact helmet with all the features need for the daily commute. In my case a fantastic blue/violet holographic skull graphic, and the wrap around chin bar.
Feature:
Pros
The visor is great, In the cold however at -0 the visor did fog up but at that temperature that doesn't surprise me, however not as much as it could have without the anti fog stuff on the visor. In normal temperatures of around 10 - 14 degree there wasn't only fogging.
The liner is soft and snug. I'm a xs/s depending on brand, and in the case I fit in the middle of the helmet range of xs/s/m.
Sun visor, not needed to use it, but it comes down almost the same as most helmets so you still see light at the bottom, but it works. Easy to use.
A bit quieter than my older helmet, with easy access to ear phone pockets.
And a quick release helmet trap, with a love.
All air vents easy to use.
Pro/Con:
The chin bar, when it works it's great, easy to grab, pull over and ready for the open air or warmth of the inner helmet, with a great pull down chin curtain I love that feature. There are times where to chin bar from the open position sitting at the back of the head will jam due to the visor position. This can be annoying, but I have found if you move the chin bar slowly and feel like its going to get stuck put it back and open and close the visor so the action works.
Lastly in the cold there was a unknown cold draft hitting my in the forehead when riding, all vents closed at -0 and I was getting a brain freeze. I can't see when it's coming it, and at those low temperature wasn't nice.
I gave this helmet 4 stars due to the issues with the chin bar, I still love this helmet, and I will continue to use it.
Good quality and a great fit. Functions well as an open face or full faced helmet. Great field of view. Great helmet at a great price.
That's I'm looking for, on sportbikeshop
Communication was great and I had to return as helmet was too small and it was so easy to exchange for a larger one.
Speedy delivery even with the exchange and love my new helmet
Probably the best flip front I've owned. Needed to replace my Caberg Droid so took a punt on the Shark Evo ES and I'm very pleased with it. It is essentially two helmets in one - an open face that can be safely word with the chin guard round the back; or a standard full face helmet. One of the most surprising things is how clear the visor is without the need for a pinlock due to the anti-fog plastic. It isn't especially quiet, and it can be a bit of a pain finding somewhere to attach a helmet camera, but the pros outweigh the cons. Superb helmet (and the usual super-quick delivery from Sportsbikeshop!).
Bought for my other half as she wanted more of an open style helmet due to feeling closed in in a normal helmet. She finds it very comfortable & loves the fact the chin bar totally opens up the field of vision. Good looking & does not look like a "bubble head". Fitted a Cardo Freecom 2 with minimum issues.
