HJC might be new to the flip-over helmet game, but the i100 shows they know how to play it...
Customers praise the helmet for its comfort, modular design, and fit, frequently recommending going a size up for a perfect fit. They appreciate the helmet’s functionality, particularly the flip front and the broad field of vision provided. The integration of communication systems is seamless, contributing to overall satisfaction. Concerns raised include wind noise at higher speeds and occasional issues with visor clips. The build quality and ease of use make it a favored choice among customers, despite some minor drawbacks.
After being fitted at shop and sold a well used helmet which was exchanged and a 45 minute wear in house an hour and a half in to our first use the helmet had horrendous wind noise and dug deeply into our foreheads having to stop and remove them every 20 minutes. If trying on wear them in shop for an hour or two, we now have 2 useless helmets. Maybe we can make hanging baskets with them.
I've been a biker for 40+ years now & this is, by far, the best helmet I've ever owned. Out on a sunny day, I've it flipped back with the sun visor down: safe in the knowledge that if it rains or I want face protection for a bit more speed, I can flip it round for a full-face experience. It has many great features, my two favourites being the pinlock visor, which never fogs, and the in-built accommodation for camera wires and/or intercoms - I use both. This is an all-around incredible helmet. I cannot recommend it enough.
Good price and service from Sportsbikeshop
Really nicely made helmet , great idea of flip over . I ride with an i90 flip front which on a long ride gets heavy & effects the neck. This is heavier , sat wearing one night at home & felt it after 30mins or so . Great helmet everything right just wants to be lighter by about 500g plus .
It was a great experience to be able to try on so many different helmets, to ensure I found the right one. This helmet is comfortable, well made, fits like a glove - the shop having all sizes in all types of helmets, so I was able to with advice from staff, find the perfect fit. Very happy with my purchase.
I m a M size 57-58 fits me perfectly
Also takes Cardo spirit HD kit
Brilliant helmet, all you need for all types of riding. If your considering this product don’t hesitate get one, Fair price
Really good features, seems sturdy and reasonably well made. Unfortunately the first one i had leaked water through the visor seal, was replaced without issue though.
Good ventilation, good sun visor, and the flip over is really easy to use.
The concept of a dual position chin bar is genius, but from my experience, about 6 months/3000 miles, the operation is not seamless. Overall I like the helmet but changing the chin bar position on the move is a mug's game, even at low speed. On a couple of occasions the bar jammed across my eye line. Something wasn't right and the helmet had to go back for repair to the visor. So, provided you're disciplined enough not the change the chin bar position on the hoof here's what I think: (R1200GS LC TE & Triumph Speed 400) I truely love the open face option at low speeds. At motorway speeds with the chin bar down aerodynamics are good and noise attenuation is accepetable. I find the helmet comfortable and the space for my Sena earphones ample (unlike my Shark spare helmet). Ventilation is adequate - just!. Glad I bought it? Yes.
Very well made good fit able to wear for Very long days riding
Good fit and comfortable, air flow on warm days fantastic.
Excellent service as always from sports bike shop.
Great helmet. Quieter than I expected. Very comfortable and excellent quality. The flip up function is easy to use as is the internal visor after a little practise. The ventilation from the front and top openings is very effective. Excellent customer service in store at Milton Keynes.
The helmet is lovely, true to size. I'm a small and wear glasses; I have no problem getting my glasses on and off. I love the colours and style. The internal sun visor is very handy. It is comfortable and isn't too noisy. I would highly recommend it. Online purchasing was easy, with excellent customer service and speedy delivery. It was very well packaged. Thank you
Good comfy helmet, a bit noisy but that is to be expected with a flip over. Be aware that the foam that covers the intercom speaker can easily fall out, mine fell out when I took it off on my 1st ride out, it was lucky that someone saw it beside my bike as we were leaving because I hadn't noticed it missing.
This is very comfortable, not too heavy and well made. I made the right choice with this.
Like the flip front a fact it goes right back, lining feels good, all in all for the price think its hard to beat
Had to buy this helmet as my previous one was too big. When I bought my previous helmet I was told I was a medium and was told the helmet was a good fit, although the shop owner didn’t try to move it about etc to check. I went to SBS with a friend who needed a new helmet and after watching him get fitted for his I realised mine wasn’t the correct size so asked if the shop assistant would check for me. The shop assistant was more than happy to do so and informed me it was far too big. In the end I needed an XS. The helmet was checked for size by him holding the chin bar while I tried to move my head etc to make sure there wasn’t any movement that shouldn’t be there. I did have a problem with a broken clip on the chin vent after less than a week but SBS exchanged it for a new one without any hassle at all! All around great service from SBS!
As far as the quality of this helmet goes, it looks great which I know is a concern to a lot of bikers. It is a little louder than some helmets on the market but that’s to be expected with a modular helmet but it’s really not too noisy at all. It’s clearly well built and made with quality materials. It’s extremely comfortable even after wearing it for hours and is a nice snug fit on my head which makes me confident in its protection. The vents work well and keep my head cool, especially the vent on the top of the head as I can feel a nice breeze coming through when it’s open. I’d definitely be happy to recommend this helmet and SBS.
