Top 10 Best Modular Helmets 2022 - Review & Road-Test - Champion Helmets

[@jeweetzelftoch]

Very interesting way of reviewing helmets, instead of just unpacking a helmet and calling it a review like revzilla does. You can tell that a lot of time went into making this video. But it provides a lot of info that enables me to make my own decision which is what I want from a review. Well done!

[@jesusjimenez4931]

This was honestly a super good review. I almost always skip to the end of reviews, your in depth testing and realistic ratings on certain parts of the helmet is spot on. Unloke places like revzilla that just take it out of the box, you all went super in depth. Loved it

[@Championhelmets]

Thanks a lot for your feedback! Glad to hear that you loved our review. Which helmet is your favorite?

[@cyclechris6591]

Another season with my HJC Rhpa 90s carbon. Not one issue in rain, cold, hot. Super quiet and lightweight. Can't wait for the Rhpa 91.

[@Jimmy_Cavallo]

💥💥 Every helmet manufacturer should watch this. It’s incredible how much effort was put in here to rate so many features and aspects of each helmet. Excellent job…!! 🏆🏆

[@QoraxStan]

OMG! What an information bundle! My heartfelt gratitude Champion Helmets for doing this yeoman service ✅

[@suleimanshaik]

I absolutely love this video. All my questions i regarding Modular helmets answered ( and gained more info than expected) in one video. Thanks a million. Very helpful. I'm an instant fan!!! Keep up the great videos.

[@damonoriente736]

Nice overview and comparison. I wear a NeoTech II and I like it very much, but I really appreciate this comparison. You covered a lot of important aspects of helmets, and contributed a solid update to the helmet market for riders.

[@ZX9RDan]

As I wait for my Neotec 2 to arrive in the mail, I really enjoyed your review and the metrics that you use. That said, there is one metric that too few reviewers seem to consider but matter a LOT for riders who ride every day and in every weather. RAIN!! I have a Scorpion Exo modular helmet. As soon as it starts raining, the cheekpads whet soaked. So, some rain testing in your reviews are truly relevant for me, and for all the other all-weather riders all around the flat earth ;) Dan

[@Championhelmets]

Good feedback, thank you for that. I will pass on your feedback to our Data Review team and ask if they can come up with an objective way of measuring water resistance under realistic riding conditions. You're absolutely right, for those who ride in the rain, this can be a dealbreaker which makes it a relevant aspect to look at. Thanks a lot.

[@EEEBA1]

How do you like your Neotec 2 so far? Thank you

[@gwrider2146]

@@EEEBA1 In my experience, I've had my Shoei Neotec for almost 8 years & 38K miles riding on a Goldwing, and so far it's held up well and been comfortable in all weather types in the USA from desert to cold rains & including snow😱, but I'm pretty sure I'm overdue for a new helmet given its age and usage as internal components like the foam do weaken and break down over time. But have been also looking hard at the AGV modulars as a possible replacement. But I may just go ahead and go with a new Neotec given my perfect experience with my older one, haha!

[@EEEBA1]

@@gwrider2146 Good to hear. We need a new Shoei Neotec out soon, we'll see. Thank you and ride safe my friend.

[@aghartan]

Thanks for the hard work and very detailed review. However I think you missed the most important point to score which is safety. The new ECE 22.06 standard is definitely way more advanced than the others 22.05, DOT, Snell and Sharp. As far as I know there’s only one helmet in the review which has ECE 22.06 which is Schubert C5. That should be also taken into consideration imho.

[@Championhelmets]

Good point. We did that in the past, the issue we kept running into was the lack of Sharp scores for the new helmets. It can take months to get Sharp tested, if they get tested at all. So what do we do for the Sharp un-tested helmets? That was basically the reason why we decided to let go of Sharp scores. But excellent thinking. It's of course a relevant aspect for choosing a high-end helmet, good input! Thank you.

[@anxiousappliance]

I think you are short selling Sharp. One thing it notes is the rate of failure of the hinge mechanism. Shoei does not do well, Schuberth is better but not 100%(though th c5 isn't tested this and impact is consistently not the best across the line). The only helmets with 100% hinge success across the line is Nolan and x-lite.

[@yassinmestour9273]

Really like this new way of comparing helmets on the road tests. up to the next helmets :)

[@mauricioolmedo2709]

Great video, I decided to go for the SCHUBERTH C5 , the quietness is a important selling point for me.

[@anxiousappliance]

I'd go to Sharp testing to see how the hinge holds up in impact, and get a sense of the overall safety. Might come to a different conclusion depending on priorities. For example: the Shoei hinge opened in 30% of impacts, and the left side of the helmet has a low impact rating. But knowing a helmet is comfortable and has good ventilation etc. IS important because no matter how safe it is, if it hurts you're not going to wear it.

[@rexforddundon4993]

I went from a cheap modular helmet (200 dollars US) to a Schuberth C3 Pro and recently got a Schuberth C5 (and today received from Germany the SC2 intercom system for it) absolutely love it!

[@marcus9763]

How was the change from C3 pro to C5? Any difference in wind noise?

[@NicleT]

Excellent review method. I made my mind, thank you.

[@1600gtl]

Clear and precise answers to million-dollar questions. Thanks champion helmets 👍👍

[@Baerijoe]

Hey guys! Will there be a review of Sena's new helmets, especially the Sena Impulse? Can't wait for it an there is no serious review out there yet although the product is available in certain areas.

[@tobylopez445]

I would have to stay with the quiet helmet ⛑ the HJC, because that is the most important feature of an enjoyable ride on a motorcycle.

[@Thailand-Servant-111]

Thanks for your review compared. I trust your information. Please review HJC i100 too. Thanksssss from Thailand.

[@joshuachua2491]

Wow this is in depth review! Not just 1 helmet but more!

[@OldWon991]

Great video. Have you done any testing on helmets such as Sena or Bell that have built in entertainment systems?

[@simonmills2375]

Thank you, you are a great presenter. Cheers

[@cristi8183]

Thanks! Decided to get a Schuberth C5. 👍🏻

[@MEGLADAD]

One thing that could have been noted would be the internal head shape that these helmets suit best. Not for a purpose to rate or score but just for general information for a buyer even though I'm sure it would state this on your website. Other than that this was the best and most comprehensive review for modular helmets I've seen. I wish you had included Bell brand but I'm sure you have your reasons.. Same as the one you did for full faced helmets that did. This review gives much more insight for buying online than anywhere else..Thanks from OZ👌👍

[@Championhelmets]

Thank you for your feedback. Legit point you make, appreciate it.

[@rolyf100]

Thanks for this great comparo, it beats the competition by far! I’ll be ordering my new helmet from Champion.

[@twobeagles1365]

Thankyou, This review really helps when searching for a replacement Helmet.

[@GordonJones]

what is an AGV TourModular - i've never heard of this model and don't see it anywhere (even your website). any info?

[@Championhelmets]

This is a brand new model from AGV, we've done a full review on it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/noCmipWjhch7Zq8

[@GordonJones]

@@Championhelmets thx for the reply - i've been looking at the SportModular for a while, but very(!) interested in a more touring-oriented version if it's in the works. excited to hear the details.

[@Goathead85]

Any Chance you folks will be doing a similar test/reviews of 180degree flip helmets Ie. LS2 Valiant & Shark EVO one 2 in the near future? IMO, these are going to be some of the most sought af-ter helmets for touring riders.

[@us4marine]

OMG!!!! Best way ever to review a product, you nailed every aspect of an excellent narrator, voice tone, clarity and lots of patience to cover each one of the features. Can I tell my daughter to contact you if this is the way you also classify boyfriends???? LOLOLOLL😂😂😂 No, really, joking aside, your review is in my opinion the best on internet. Great job. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Championhelmets]

Sure, have her contact us and we will develop a good test for that as well... :-D Thanks a lot, we really appreciate the positive feedback!

[@mtebraak1]

Heel interessant. Ik wil eind februari naar de motorbeurs om daar mijn eerste systeem motorhelm te kopen.ik ben nu een beetje voor bereid. Fijn dat ik deze site heb gevonden. Veel van geleerd.

[@serenityhealthadvisors]

Why was the bell Modular not included?

[@xamir70]

Fantastic ! Thank you

[@laddiegill]

WOW!!! Great review and explaining each and every feature. Schuberth it is for me. Thanks,

[@Championhelmets]

Thank you for your feedback! Glad we could help

[@stefanonalin4335]

Very nice and professional review!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@tarikayaou7089]

What an intresting review! Which helmet will fit glasses best? I have larger frames. Thanks in advance

[@Championhelmets]

Hello Tarik, all these helmets fit glasses well, though the Shoei, HJC, X-Lite, and Schuberth do an excellent job of being more accommodating.

[@HaErBeSo]

Thanks for the review. You could have included how far the chin piece goes over your head. As far as I know only Scorpion, Shark and Roof offer a helmet where the chin piece goes all the way back. It can be argued that only such a configuration is a real system helmet. I own a Schubert and in practice I only open it when driving slowly, stopping etc. So it’s not really two helmets in one.

[@Championhelmets]

We will pass your feedback on to our Review team, thank you for that. Which helmet was your favorite?

[@steveaga4683]

What score would you give to a helmet with a visor that has a coating that takes away the need for a pinlock...such as Shark Evo ES.

[@ed.t.hansen6499]

Why not have D-ring to lock. Fully;! face can lock but not 3/4 ? Need inside cable

[@kkkk-do4jp]

Excellent job! May I ask, what is the level of CABERG LEVO Carbon? Can it make the top ten?

[@etclizen8937]

excellent review thank you :) it has helped me decide what to buy and why.

[@aBluegrassPicker]

Great review and presentation.

[@PoChO6886]

Hello, good morning, do you ship to Colombia and is it safe to buy with you? Thank you

[@luisestrella2082]

Great review with exception of comfort.. though tester can make an assessment.. on design and certain feature.. Unless his head changes to the shape of every other head.. this one feature is variable amongst different people with different shape/size heads.

[@749corsa]

Please provide the head shape information for each helmet

[@emirrustemovic9061]

What a great review! Are all the helmets glasses friendly?

[@Championhelmets]

Hello Emir, yes, all the helmets are glasses friendly.

[@woodstock048]

Excellent job!

[@niddamw2527]

Great review that are very understandable and honest. For my new Indian FTR Carbon I wanted to buy a new helmet. Visually, I liked the AGV Sportsmodular very well, would fit the look of the Carbon FTR. Then Schuberth presented the C5, in conjunction with the headset and its mesh function, ideal to connect me with my friends. Or also to get the Navi announcements on the ears. The features of the helmet are very practical and very accessible. The wind noise is very moderate. Thus I have decided for the C5 in black matt. My conclusion, a brilliant helmet that meets everything I wanted.

[@BobBlack880]

I just bought an AGV Sportmodular for less than €300. I’m feeling happy, verging on the smug…

[@axelfiraxa]

I own the Nolan in size L and it doesnt feel as heavy as the weight says. I also crashed a N87 and it saved my head. The Pinlock works great and i never had any big issues with fogging except for the worst weather days when a bit of an open vent solved it.

[@paulconnell1309]

Good review, thanks. As are all you other reviews I have read and watched. Bought the Shoei Neotec in red Winsome paint scheme. Should stand out...

[@skycop3855]

Outstanding review! I bought the Shoei. Well done.

[@EEEBA1]

How do you like it so far? Thank you

[@or0678]

What a great Review! How long does shipping to the US take if I order from your website?

[@Championhelmets]

Thank you for your response. Delivery will be within 12-15 days maximumfor countries outside Europe.

[@thedownwardmachine]

Yeah but which head shapes do they each fit best?

[@Championhelmets]

Round oval for pretty much all of them. Next time we will make sure to mention this also.

[@joeanderson1410]

Great video! I ordered a new Schuberth C5 Nov 14th. Any idea of when you will have them?

[@Championhelmets]

Hello Joe, we expect the Schuberth C5 to come available in January / February 2022. As soon as we received the helmet, it will be send to our pre-orders first.

[@azkikrx1]

Fantastic video. Such a huge effort was put in here. Super useful. Thank you.

[@Rex_Payne]

Great video! But, please, test Caberg Levo Carbon! I asked you for this in your Best Modular Helmets 2021 video comments, but, sadly, you still didn't deliver :(

[@tobylopez445]

Wow, this is the best video on helmets 🪖 ever on KZbin. Thank you so much.😊❤😊

[@cyclechris6591]

Hjc rpha 90 carbon. Great lid. Who would buy a 4lb helmet like a c4 or neotec 2?

[@Paul-of6fm]

Thank you for this extended review! Do you do price matching?

[@Championhelmets]

Hello Paul, thank you for your feedback. Yes we offer the lowest price guarantee on our website www.championhelmets.com and we also offer nice bundle deals.

[@CanKicker68]

AGV sports modular is the best helmet that I have ever used. I have a lot of lids and own a shoei as well.

[@jvl4832]

Excellent!

[@martijnbrand7846]

Thank you for this extended data review!!! Does the RPHA90S carbon also have the option of riding with the chin guard open?

[@Championhelmets]

Good morning Martijn, Yes, the HJC RPHA 90S Carbon is P/J certified and therefore you can ride with the chin guard open.

[@ssa1263]

Very nics review. Where can I see if my helmet has been P/J certified?

[@Championhelmets]

Hello, you can find your helmet's certification on the chin strap (where you will either see P or P/J) or in the user manual. Thanks for the question!

[@demikuij891]

Good review!! Is every modular helmet prepared for a communication system?

[@Championhelmets]

Good morning Demi, Yes all the helmets in this video are prepared for a communication system. You can take a look at www.championhelmets.com, to find out which helmet is prepared for which system.

[@nickvermolen8290]

Good review! Btw, is there also a carbon version available for the Schuberth C5?

[@Championhelmets]

Thank you for your feedback! For now, there isn't. Just the fiberglass composite version.

[@AnReO]

Suprised that you use the RPHA 90S Carbon original price for the comparison, while even in your site its listed at 439€. And I just bought the RPHA 90S in matt white + cheek pads for 399€ xd For sure the Neotec and the new C5 have a more premium feeling, but its becoming quite hard to justify the extra +50% price tag with the current prices of the RPHA 90S...

[@Championhelmets]

Hi Anreo, please note that there are two versions of the rpha90, the normal one and the carbon version. We used the carbon version in this test. Based on the color you mentioned, you are referring to the non-carbon one. But for the carbon version the price difference is a lot less. But no doubt, the RPHA belongs in the absolute top and delivered on pretty much any aspect we measured.

[@749corsa]

Thank you!

[@BikesNThings]

This is how you review some helmets.

[@Championhelmets]

Thanks a lot

Great review, to many 'ok great' though

[@russellhope1866]

A Nolan N1005 Plus saved my life, go figure how they actually rate these things.

[@christianschnadt2104]

This helmet test and review indeed comes across quite in-dept. What irritates me is that i just returned from a 5 day tour with the new AGV Sportsmodular and that was the last time i ever wore it as the noise was unbearable as of +100km/h on my Super Duke 1290 R Evo, even with earplugs. I ride motorbike since 20 years and own various helmets from Roof, HJC, Bell but even the openface Arai is less noisy on my ears than the Sportsmodular. Honestly, i consider this model as a construction failure as AGV probably was after the weight and was willing to sacrifice noise isolation. Not sure how ChampionH got to such a relative good rating!? Fyi, this is my first ever comment i post on you-tube but i want to protect others from considering the AGV just for its great looks and weight.

[@HUMPTYNUGGET]

No LS2 Valiant range ?.....

[@Championhelmets]

Good morning, thank you for your comment. We haven´t been able to test this helmet yet. As soon as we have done a test we will incorporate it in next year's guide.

I sincerely appreciate your genuine attempt of being as data driven as possible and this sets you definitely on the next level. Having said that the most important element had not been considered: safety. It would be great to include sharp.dft.gov.uk test results, provide the complete picture and be prepared to be surprised. Good job, keep it up.
