Let's not forget the LS2 also has MIPS. It's absolutely the best deal for quality and safety for a motocross helmet right now. The quality and build is astounding. MIPS is an absolute must, saved my head already once wearing a Fox V3. LS2 build quality is a totally different level than the V3.

Great helmet. I took a bad slam and the bike came over and hit me right on top of my head. Cracked the helmet and rung my bell but got up with no injury to my head. Thank you Ls2 for making a quality helmet.

I just bought this helmet. And apparently they have made some improvements. Now, the holes on the inside are much larger. The ones you said had 5 millimeters in diameter, now have oval shape, 3 pairs of larger holes with different sizes, 30 x18 mm, 25 x 15 mm, and 20 x 15 mm. Now we can see large portions of the honey combs from the inside. I think they have seen your video and listen to you...😁😁👍🏼👍🏼

Respected sir, This helmet has a lot of vents which cant be turned off. Hence during rainy season, water will go to the liner EPS. Will that water be harmful for the EPS? Thank You!
@RevZilla Жыл бұрын
EPS is a material that will deteriorate over time with the elements like water and excess sun-exposure, yes. But that is a problem all dirt-style helmets have to contend since dirt-riders are more concerned with ventilation than the occasional rain storm. EPS is much more at risk from excessive sweat and lack of cleaning than it is to rain from time to time for what its worth though. Something to consider, but something all dirt helmets encounter.
@varadjoshi6523 Жыл бұрын
@@RevZilla thanks for the reply! I see. I will consider it. While saying sweat, are you referring to sweating due to offroad biking? My requirement is for street riding in India. However, unlike the western world, riding in India is pretty slow. I usually cruise at 30-40kmph. Also, unlike the west, India has pretty bad roads. So I was considering an offroad helmet (especially since rotational forces are given attention). Due to the legal restrictions of helmets in India, finding big brands is difficult. I have shortlisted two options. LS2 Arrow R Evo (2021 import year) and LS2 Subverter. Assuming the only things considered are safety and not venting, which one would you pick (Arrow, Subverter) if you had the same usage as mine mentioned in the above paragraph? Thank You! Yours sincerely, Varad
@varadjoshi6523 Жыл бұрын
@@RevZilla Sorry for another question, But if I were to buy the Arrow, then I would be getting it at an discounted price. This is mostly because in India, the Arrow is discontinued. Is there anything I should check. I wont be getting any warrnaty (if I had been LS2 gives only 1 year warranty in India). So I would like to check the helmet thoroughly. What should I check and how? Thank You!

Hi .. I just purchased a large Subverter helmet and fits perfect on the head but cheek pads are little to snug.. Could I possibly buy a set of medium cheek pads for bit of a better fit??
@RevZilla4 жыл бұрын
Medium cheek pads are actually thicker, as the outer shell is the same for both helmets, but the cheek pads need to fit a smaller head in size medium (so bigger cheek pads to take up the extra room). Unfortunately, you can only swap large cheek pads with medium, so you cannot get a looser fit. The only option is to step up to the size XL helmet. -DrewZilla

There isn't really enough flat/clean surface area for the adhesive mount. However, we've seen a ton of people at the track and dual sport rides with some cheap chin mount strap options that work with most GoPros. We don't sell any at the moment but there are plenty out there on the market to grab for a few bucks. I used one during the NE24 hour race last year to hold a chin light without issues.

@RevZilla6 жыл бұрын
The biggest difference is shell construction. More expensive helmets tend to use a fiberglass composite shell construction, while the Subverter uses a more affordable polycarbonate shell. Additionally, while the Subverter has a pretty nice liner, nicer helmets generally have nicer padding as well. The Subverter is a really good value, so if you find it comfortable, then you don't necessarily need to spend $450. -DrewZilla

The LS2 Subverter is based on the same size chart as regular full-face LS2 helmets, but the internal head shape is not quite as narrow as other helmets like the Arrow and Citation. I would still get the same size, but would recommend wearing it in your house for at least 30-60 minutes before taking it out riding to make sure it does not cause uncomfortable pressure on the middle of your forehead. -DM
