Now do a test after they're 3 yrs old with 60k miles under their belt. I've always been a Shoei fan, but the last couple I've bought have problems with the padding coming undone. I didn't used to like Arai as much as their plastic vents would break and their visors were a nightmare to get on/off. They fixed that stuff and now they're making really reliable lids.
@Championhelmets4 жыл бұрын
Longevity of a helmet would definitely be a nice addition to helmet testing, though it would also depend on the intensity of use. We've also noticed Arai have been upping their game as of late, including their new visor system. What Arai are you thinking of going for?

Great idea and methodology, but..... you should have only included the HJC RPHA series in this test. I have both Arai & Shoei helmets, so no bias here, but it’s not a fair test to HJC that Arai & Shoei don’t have a budget line, so pull HJC’s budget helmets out and it’ll be a much better comparison. As for those other brands, I’m not familiar with them, but if they have budget helmets in your collection, pull those as well. Otherwise - really appreciate the effort you guys have been putting into these reviews, the “road” tests are absolutely great and much needed in this industry!

The Shoei also did better in SHARP testing with 5/5 stars compared to the RPHA 11's 3/5.

Though we're currently finishing the road test of the RPHA 11 Carbon (and the results will be out very soon), it does offer excellent ventilation since it stayed equal to the exterior temperature throughout our test. HJC always produce excellent helmets for great prices. Shoei and Arai, though they rarely produce carbon fiber helmets, are also well known for their quality and safety. As far as a middle ground between the HJC, Shoei, and Arai, you may want to check out either the Shark Spartan GT Carbon or the Race-R Pro Carbon. We found they ventilated very well, Shark manufacture quality helmets, and it also had a strong score from SHARP with at least 4/5 stars.

Thanks for the feedback, it's our pleasure! For mostly commuting with a bit of a touring focus, the best option would be the Shoei GT Air 2. The Shoei helmet showed strong ventilation out on our road test, being only one degree hotter, it has an internal sun visor to cut out glare, and it was one of the quietest helmets we've road tested to date. While the K6 is also an excellent sport-touring helmet, it does not have the convenience of a sun visor, but it is still very lightweight. Depending on what you're looking for in your helmet as far as noise, weight, or sun visors, the NXR would also be a strong choice since it is incredibly light, and though it is on the noisier side and does not have an internal sun visor, Shoei do offer a photochromic self-tinting visor, which you can find at a discount in our helmet bundle deals. Though you're starting out, you may also want to consider your communication system options, since these can come in really handy for listening to music or taking telephone calls out on the road. With the GT Air 2, the helmet uses the Sena SRL 2, which makes installation very easy and improves safety, but you can't use the system in any non-SRL 2 prepared helmets later on down the road. With the rest of the helmets you've listed, they are prepared for communication systems but you can mount any type that you prefer.

@@Championhelmets thanks a lot ! i think i will be running with NXR , it's kinda more slim in my eyes than the GTAIR II and i value the weight a lot!!! i wore my sunglasses when i tested it and they did fit perfectly on these little edges they got for glasses. Now i am just searchin for colour and the looks! cheers guys!

@@SfouGz No problem! The NXR certainly does fit glasses well, and the 4 shell sizes of the NXR do help with reducing weight as well. Cheers!

@@SfouGz Im 56cm in head, most brand smalls fit me but yesterday I tried the NXR and small size NXR just feels a little loose(it wont move, cant chew gum but cheeks feel it feels a little too comfortable). I'll try XS tomorrow just to see how it feels but I wanted to ask; did NXR felt that way for you too or was it perfect?

HJC says they are number 1 but in reality in any metric they are third or fourth. Just behind AGV shoei and Arai. Just because you believed their slogan doesn't mean it is true. I also use HJC because of my headshape but i dont believe the #1 in the world BS.
