SCHUBERTH C5 Carbon | Episode 3 : The Game Changer - the Formula 1 know-how into a Motorcycle helmet 

That was a very interesting presentation - thanks Alberto! A bit disappointed by the false advertising by Matteo. He said that C5 Carbon "weights about 200 grams lighter than the version in fiberglass". But guys from the Champion Helmets proved that this claim is a lie. They weighted the fiberglass C5 of the size M at 1647 grams, and C5 Carbon of the same size at 1511 grams. So the carbon fibre version is only 136 grams lighter than the fiberglass one. 136 is definitely NOT "about 200". They also weighted the C4 Pro Carbon earlier - and it was 1483 grams. Let's conclude: the C5 Carbon is heavier than it's predecessor, only comes in 2 outer shell size (while C4 Pro Carbon had 3), and yet (worst of all) C5 Carbon is priced almost 3 TIMES(!!!) MORE EXPENSIVE than it's direct predecessor. I can buy two C4 Pro Carbons, and still have another $337 left in my pocket - all for the price of just one C5 Carbon. That is absolutely insane, ridiculous, and inadequate pricing for the C5 Carbon. So after everything mentioned above I have only one question: dear Schuberth, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!? Are you having some problems? Do you need an assistance? Because I'm really worried for you.

I have used a C4 Pro Carbon extensively - it is a great helmet. I bought a C5 (fiberglass, ECE) late last season. It is beautifully made, but nowhere near as comfortable as the C4, mostly due to the positioning of the chin strap. The new strap position puts considerable and uncomfortable pressure on the throat of most users. Integration of the Sena SC-2 comm unit is elegant and easy to use while riding, but the functionality of the SC-2 leaves a lot to be desired when compared to highest-end offerings from Sena or Pactalk. Worst of all (for me) is the SC-2 not integrating with BMW bike controls. Back to the C5 Pro Carbon, if history repeats, ECE certified versions will be available late July, and DOT certified versions available in USA sometime next year. Hope I am wrong! If Schuberth “fixes” the strap position issue, gets early DOT certs, and makes some attractive colorways, I would be a buyer. But the strap thing is a dealbreaker - try one on before buying! You’ll see…

I have the C4 pro and C4 pro carbon and they are the best helmets I have ever worn now it looks I need the need the C5 car on too

Hope the E2 comes as a carbon fiber alternative to...

Best of the best 😮

that's all very well, but you've solved the visor problems that no longer close or that fall on their own. The logo that peels off after 3 months?

I was planning on buying a second C5 since I've been so happy with it. I'm reaching out to my local authorized dealer to see if he can order one for me. Of course, depending on price. I'm thinking it's going to be either just under $1,000 or over $1,200.

Wow! Amazing helmet. I imagine the price tag will be pretty scary but I’d love to own one of these. ☺️

There are a lot of people who have problems with this helmet but the most heartbreaking thing is that Schuberth does not communicate about it. At 700€ the helmet and having this kind of problem is a shame!!!

I was ready to replace my NeoTec with the C5. However, IMO the commitment to the SC2 and the partnership with SENA has alienated a portion of the market - those using another, fantastic brand of comms. I am not going to replace my preferred comm along with the purchase of the new helmet. Sure wish there was a non-SC2 option or the ability to FULLY remove all of the pre-installed SC2 components. You've designed a great helmet (not really innovative though) but really made it less appealing with the SC2. Now, if SENA wanted to introduce their brand to a larger audience, they should have included the whole package in the helmet. In the end, user adoption rates may have been quite phenomenal. But I can only dream.......

What is the chin bar made form? Is that carbon also? A lot of manufactures cheap out with polycarbonate or similar. At the price this helmet costs I'd expect all carbon.

Hi. How long it last? The same 5 years as all other helmets?

¿Donde puedo comprar el Schuberth C-5 Carbon en España?

Just got my C-5 Looks like the wife is getting a new Helm and Im getting a Carbon one. Where can i get it?

Very bad customer service after buy my C5 with SC2 radio!! My radio fails completely after update it, I updated it because your app send me a message asking me to update asap, after update it stop working and the dealer told me has no warranty because i nouth it 1 year and 2 months ago!!!

another 1.5kg. carbon helmet, why can't anybody even get close to the under 1 kg. rate? I still have a bmw carbon helmet (xxs) of those, and it's decades old!

PLEASE MAKE A CLEAR INSIDE VISOR FOR YOUR C5 HELMET!!!! BUYER BEWARE, THESE PEOPLE DO NOT RESPOND TO THEIR CUSTOMER INQUIRIES!!!

Pounds?

Pure marketing😂

I can not believe that Shubert went into manufacturing a carbon version of the C5 without sorting out the problems with the C5. Please sort out the problems first, like rattling noises, no clear visor, shields dropping, etc, before manufacturing a carbon. don't your technicians watch RU-vid videos on what customers are actually experiencing in the real world? Schuberth only seems to be interested in profits, but sadly, you'll have lost plenty of loyal customers. The neotec 2 is years older than the C4 but receives more positive reviews. Even the speakers that you'll pre install are not good quality.....

blah blah blah but i still do not undestand how is this helmet better than my C4 Carbon.... All I got was that C5 Carboon is finaly made the right way, meaning my C4 Carbon is somehow meh...
