Review: T-Com VB X2 Helmet Intercom 

Thanks for the comment. Yes, we bought new helmets earlier this year. My wife liked the Cycle Gear house brand (Built) as that felt the most comfortable for her and it had built in recesses as well as a drop down sun visor in addition to the face shield. I ended up going with a last years model Shoei. It's pretty comfortable but the cheek pads are a little tight. It too has speaker recesses. I've been toying with the idea of upgrading the intercom to a Rugged Radio setup now that I changed out the cage. But it is 1K for a good setup and that just seems crazy expensive.

Thanks for the comment. I didn't know anyone with a sena headset so not sure. However, I saw another review of the sena set and it did look like they could pair with other brands.

Hey Brandon, I checked with the manufacturer and no, they do not pair with other brands. Sorry.

Thanks for the comment. They do work pretty well for the price point. I will probably move up to a in car and car to car setup like a Rugged Radio at some point but those are expensive and I'm jut not ready to drop $1K on a radio yet.

Hello George, sorry, i must have missed this comment. I'm guessing you solved your helmet to helmet system. However, Freedcon just sent me their updated version for review and I will be testing this out and will post an updated review. Stay tuned.

Sorry, I never really tested that as we really didn't listen to music while we were riding. It was purely for person to person communication.

Hello...while I did not test that feature….Freedcon contacted me and asked me to check out their updated version of the headset and I just got them. I will be testing that out per your request and will include it in an updated review. Stay tuned

Thanks for the tip. I will keep that in mind. Unfortunately, the mic is built into the face of the camera. However, I have been looking for a new camera with a separate, wireless mic so I can get better recordings from it.

Maybe, maybe not. At the time I bought these, the cost of individual units was not all that different than the 2 pack. So you could buy the individual units and come out only a little more cost wise. However, I upgraded my intercom setup to a Rugged Radio intercom and it only came with boom mics. We were still able to mount those in our helmets without interfering with the comfort or putting helmet on/off. I have an install video for the RR setup and we show how we mounted them if that is of interest.

@@RoughRidersTV is the rugged radio intercom better

@@daontetrotter1 Yes, but it is also a hard wired setup and significantly more expensive. The wireless headset was good, but did not have the same volume range. Sometimes you could not get the volume high enough to overcome the motor sitting right behind us when we were really screaming down the trail. The T com folks contacted me a few weeks ago asking if I wanted to check out their new design. I should be getting it shortly. If you are riding on separate bikes, the Rugged Radio setup will not work. If you are in the same car, it's a great option but as mentioned, quite a bit more expensive.

FYI, I just got the new helmet to helmet system. I will be posting an updated review of it once I complete my testing. Stay tuned.

Double tap the multi function button...phone symbol

I agree but there is still room for much improvement.

Great question. I did not try that with this set. However, I have another, newer set. I will give it a try and let you know.

@@RoughRidersTV hi I also have the same question, If I buy a pair can my daughter and I listen to the same music on my phone? Thanks

They have held up just fine. I just installed a new intercom system in my YXZ so I just gave them away in a channel drawing about 2 weeks ago so they have a new home with one of my subscribers.

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that. I was using this solely as an intercom system for my wife and I while in our SxS. So, I didn't really try/test these for calls coming in, etc. As I no longer own the SxS, I haven't been using these at all.

OffRoadKingdom there driving side by sides. So its all pedal work

Thanks for the comment. I believe you can pair up to 3 devices at 1 time but only it's only full duplex for 2 people at the same time. By the way, stick around because I am going to be giving this set away. I upgraded my intercom system in my SxS so I'm going to do a give away of this set in the near future. Stick around for an announcement soon on how to win!

I never found any Senna or other name brand solutions at $100 for 2.
