manxie49 Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Anyone on the forum have any experience with the Schuberth E1 helmet? I've been offered a nearly new helmet at a pretty good price, just wondering what they're like in use, fit, comfort, noise suppression? Never used them before, I've pretty much always been a Shoei man. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Westerly Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 I've no idea about the E1 but I've a C3 Pro and it's a damned good helmet. Well made and fairly quiet. Plan to replace with a C5 in due course. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I also have a C3Pro. It's an impressive helmet. I'd certainly look at another Schuberth. The only thing is they tend to fit some shaped heads and not others, so you either love them or hate them. The ventilation is excellent but in winter it's a cold helmet as even with everything shut air still flows. I wear a Caberg Duke2 in the winter. With a buff and keffiyeh it's as quiet as the C3Pro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say I find it particularly cold. You do know about the little trick with the two small flaps in the top lining that in summer are open and winter closed? Do make a small difference.

Yes, I've tried that but the main airflow is from the large front vent which even when closed allows cool air to flow up. It's not a problem, I just wear the Duke in cold weather.
