Who's got a quiet crash helmet?

[Throttled]

The Airoh Commander, with the peak removed, is the quietest helmet I have owned.

Excuse me while I quietly go and vomit in the corner. Consider my mind well and truly boggled.

Well, the Nolan N100-5 turned up today, it's such a nice snug fit, really cosy, and doesn't move around on my head, and it doesn't drop down onto my nose when I flip the front down.

I haven't removed the stickers on the visor yet, I'm going to do a bit of Farm Sim whilst wearing it first.

First observations are, it's a great fitting helmet, but the two button squeeze to flip open is a little annoying, and I guess I'll get used to that quickly. It also needs quite a tug top pull it back down. I only tend to use the flip when I actually get off the back anyhow.

Love the sun visor mechanism, that ratchet that drops in three stages, and the spring to flip it back up is superb, much, much easier than my HJC i90.

That sun visor mechanism is swish, but unnecessarily over-engineered in my view. I have once fouled it up when pulling the visor out to clean it. The shop sorted it out for me, but just something to be careful of. Brilliant when it works though.

My Shark Skwal i3 and my Scorpion Exo both became the quietest helmets I know of today. I tried my Ultimate Ears moulded earphones for the first time and helmet noise was eliminated.

Love the colour

 

... And at that price I'd be tempted to buy another!

I like a plain gloss white, but I also fancied the fluro yellow.

I went for this colour scheme because I thought the irregular pattern would help with visibility. I decided against the yellow as I had visions of drivers behind getting target fixation on my crash helmet and rear-ending me!

 

I'm looking at the ESS though.
