HJC C70 Helmet Review | Sportbike Track Gear

[@kwakkers68]

Got 1 delivered today, to replace my IS-17. As with the IS-17, I'm very happy. Build quality very good, regardless of the cheap price. Like the '17, it feels quite snug out of the box, but I expect this will ease slightly with use.. and it contributes to being (relatively) quiet. [Former Arai user]

[@sportbiketrackgear]

This is a good helmet that sells at a fair price, enjoy it. - Van

[@theGSi16valve]

This is actually a 5 star rated helmet according to SHARP. Pretty impressive for a 150 dollar/euro helmet, IMO. Great review, btw!

[@sportbiketrackgear]

5 Stars is very impressive for a helmet selling at this price for sure. HJC makes one of the best price point helmets on the market today. Thanks for watching! - Van

[@kopkraft]

So why get the RPHA or even many Shoei if safety is your highest priority?

[@Barriosanguizolahora]

kopkraft RPHA 11 helmet are pure racing so at high speeds there’s no buffer and the aerodynamics are the best for race also are noisy cause helmets if you are street rider RPHA 70 or RPHA St is the high end model

[@kb107]

no other helmets comes with 5 star sharp rating in this price range right ?

[@dantae666]

5 star sharp rating with good impact all round and approved for here in England so its eu rated

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Thanks for sharing this. - Van

I live in the UK is it quite as I have the icon airflite and I can't even hear my music and got jbl speakers by cardo freecom

[@joeylariosa752]

i like this helmet,in all aspects

[@sportbiketrackgear]

HJC makes some excellent helmets for sure. - Van

[@michaelmurphy7241]

it scored a 5 out of 5 stars on sharp testing very few helmets can past those test this is a great helmet for the money and the safety

[@sportbiketrackgear]

For sure HJC makes some of the best price point helmets on the market. - Van

[@SHiFTyTReATS]

Please explain/show how to remove inner visor. All the reviewers seem to be forgetting this. Thank you.

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Sorry we do not normally cover that in the reviews. All of our years of experience and sales history show almost no one replaces the inner shields. If you need to do it the process is fairly straight forward. - Van

[@thodoris3790]

i cant find any hemets without inner sun visor in mid price range.there are many cheap,those that share the same chinese made shell,but the vents are just for the show.i know there are expensive helmets without sun visor ,like shoei nxr or agv k6,but they are too expensive.is there any helmet in mid range without inner sun visor,with good forehead ventilation?for road use. the hjc i10,is not imported in europe.the bell srt i like a bucket.

[@kopkraft]

What would be the next step up, still with sun visor but with better option for bluetooth installation? Thanks for a great video.

[@sportbiketrackgear]

I would take a look at the HJC i70 Helmet. IMO it is a better option and only costs a few bucks more. Here is a link to it on our site: www.sportbiketrackgear.com/hjc-i70-helmets/

[@jarold74]

What is the difference between I70 and C70? Planning to buy one but i don't know which one is better.

[@sportbiketrackgear]

I like the i70 better than the C70 for sure. If there is a graphic in the C70 you are in love with it is not a bad helmet. The i70 allows for a universal bluetooth device to be installed and the C70 does not if that is important to you. - Van

[@pjanicattheisco6991]

Nice review! I would like to have your opinion on which would be better for daily city driving. C70 or I70? Thanks

[@L0veCami]

Likewise. I would also like to know please!

[@pjanicattheisco6991]

@@L0veCami i just bought C70 and it is very comfortable to wear for long rides. As for comparison for I70 and C70 I cant give an honest comparison since I am too broke to buy both helmets. But I do think whichever you choose would be worth it.

[@sportbiketrackgear]

They are both good helmets but between the two of them I prefer the i70. This is a new design for HJC and accepts a bluetooth if you plan to add one. - Van

[@kadirguvener3964]

Hello, HJC C70 or AIROH VALOR? Which is safer and more comfortable?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

I am not familiar with the Airoh so I could not say. - Van

[@edwinpepito1498]

How's the wind noise of this model? I always have an issues of fucking noise

[@sportbiketrackgear]

This is not a helmet that we will be riding in. If you want your helmet to be quiet it needs to fit properly. We see a ton of people wearing helmets that are at least one size too large which makes the helmet much more likely to produce excessive noise. - Van

[@HoopNicely]

Still deciding between the i10 or the c70. Maybe you can help me decide. Thanks!

[@sportbiketrackgear]

i70 is a newer design and a slightly better helmet all around as compared to the c70. - Van

[@raymondowatson]

for a helmet to be any good it has to be safe on road and track so whats the problem with this helmet

[@sportbiketrackgear]

This is a good helmet that is best suited for the street. Helmets with the drop down inner shield close off the field of vision at the brow when in a tuck which is not optimal for the track. - Van

[@craiyohn]

this or the cheapest bell qualifier?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

The Qualifier is not a bad helmet for the money. I would also take a look a the HJC i10 helmet. - Van

[@1683clifton]

cant find the color anywhere!

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Sorry this helmet graphic and color have been discontinued. - Van

[@1683clifton]

It is the only color that I find compliments my mt03. Any suggestions? I got the grey and teal 2022 mt baby!

[@kagamitaiga7881]

I have a round shape head with a chubby cheeks and my size is 60/large. Will this still fit me despite it is an oval shape? Currently have a large size zeus helmet but the fit is tight for my cheeks.

[@sportbiketrackgear]

The only way to tell would be to try the helmet on. Based on the 60 you would be a size large. Keep all the packaging and wear the helmet enough to know if you like the fit before you ride in it. If it does not fit we can take it back. - Van

[@hdjnfirnfnhdhdjjdkdk9349]

Hello Ryan, can you ask HJC staff if there are any diferences between C70 with ECE from Europe and C70 with DOT from US? SHARP tested ECE version... Thank you!

[@sportbiketrackgear]

If there is a difference it is not going to be massive. I will shoot them a note and see if they have an answer for this one. - Van

[@alexthorburn4650]

Sportbike Track Gear did you ever get a reply from HJC for this?

[@ejpalmario82]

hi im from philippines hahah nc review.. do you think this is better for me than k3sv .. only street riding

[@sportbiketrackgear]

I would say like the i70 helmet from HJC better than the C70. As for comparing it to the K3SV I feel the K3 is a little nicer as it should be given the price difference. - Van

[@vitorskoda]

Im a first time rider and I have two problems: a very long oval shaped head and I ride hot, so ventilation is important. I'm undecided between the AGV K1, the HJC C70, Bell SRT and Scorpion Exo 520. They are similarly priced at the moment, but of all these, and given my "problems", which would you recommend? Love your videos, keep up the good work 👍

[@sportbiketrackgear]

The long oval is going to make getting a good fit tough. Of all the helmets you noted the one that will vent the best IMO is the K1 from AGV. All of the helmets you listed are more intermediate oval so the only way you will know if they will work for you is to try them on. Thank you for watching and the kind words. - Van

[@maxsupreme2740]

Hi sir im deciding which helmet should i pick between these two Hjc C70 or Scoprion exo 920 which do you think is better ?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

They are completely different helmets with the EXO-GT920 being a modular (flip up) and the HJC being a full face with a drop down inner shield. If you need a helmet with the flip up feature for sure the Scorpion is the way to go. End of the day they are both good helmets. - Van

[@Fraldii]

Glad to be the first to watch

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Thank you for watching! - Van

[@timothytiongco6587]

Does the visor is anti-scratch?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Pretty much all of the modern helmet shields are designed to prevent scratching to some degree. - Van

[@williesison5314]

Hey Brian I'm from the Philippines and is a begginer. Choosing between hjc and kyt helmets. Any suggestion on both brands?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

I really like Scorpion helmets for any of the more affordable price points. - Van

[@iakinthoschristodoulou8219]

Is that helmet ok for long oval head shape?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

It is an intermediate oval shape. The only way to know if this would work for you would be to try one on. - Van

Appreciate you! - Van

[@discotex2236]

Don't buy one! The mechanism for attaching the visor is a faulty/weak design. It pops off when fully raised! Sending mine back. Sad, because otherwise great, fit all my needs including the step lock which I love.

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Sorry you had an issue with the helmet. I do not believe this is a wide spread issue as we have sold plenty of these helmets this year and have not seen this so far. - Van
