bluetooth helmets

[keith565]

not sure if it goes here, so feel free to move it.

we are after new helmets, flip front preferred. but we want bluetooth so we can talk to each other (pillion to rider as i'll not get a word in).

has anyone used a bluetooth helmet or can link me to any write-ups. don't want to go spending hundreds of pounds only to find they are rubbish.

I wanted a decent flip front lid and a bluetooth kit for listening to music, sat nav and phone. I found that limiting the search to lids with bluetooth kits didn't give me the choice of lids I needed to find something as good as I wanted.

I ended up going with, *in my opinion* the best flip front lid on the market for my use - a Schuberth C3. I then searched through the bluetooth kits available and did the same, bought the best one for what I needed - a Sena SMH-10.

The sena kit can be moved between lids (you leave a fitting kit on each lid, then just swap the module) and I can have crystal clear phone calls at 70+ mph, it's clearer with less background noise than my car hands free kit.

It wasn't a cheap option, but then I needed quality kit. In the summer I commute to work (2 1/2 hours a day, 120 miles) and with my summer holiday I covered 12k miles in 7 months from March to October this year.
