Schuberth E2 helmet review - adventure flipfront tested 

It'll accommodate them (just), but they will look terrible (in my opinion) and you'll lose the ability to lift the chinbar. Cheers, Tony

Yes, it's broadly consistent. I wore the same size E2 as I did C3 Pro, so that would be the best starting point. Cheers, Tony

I'll have a word with the boss. If he extends our store expansion plan to cover Canada then I'm definitely coming! Cheers, Tony

It's something we saw more frequently when the C5 was first released, and Schuberth had a solution involving retro-fitting o-rings to tighten the visor's fit. I suggest contacting your dealer again to say the issue hasn't been resolved. If you bought from us, you can contact us via support@sportsbikeshop.co.uk, quoting your order number. Cheers, Tony

Buy comms at the same time as the helmet and you'll not pay VAT on the intercom. This saving is applied automatically at the checkout on our site. Cheers, Tony

They're very different helmets. The E2 is, in my opinion, a touring helmet with a peak. The Arai is a more versatile adventure helmet that can be sensibly worn with goggles. Both have their advantages, depending on how you intend to use it. Consider how often you'd open the chinbar on the Schuberth and how often you'd wear goggles with the Arai. If you expect to do one of those considerably more often than the other then that is most likely the helmet best suited to you. As ever, this depends on fit. If either of these helmets causes you discomfort then the other one is the better option. Hope this helps. Cheers, Tony

Too much weight on your neck for a long time can't be good. if you are wearing a good lightweight highly rated helmet I'd wager it's better for your overall health and comfort levels.

What on earth did they do to make a carbon composite helmet weigh over 1.8kg it's absolutely ridiculous. You'll get a bicep work out just dragging it round the shops.

And yet reviewer has said he had no neck issues while using it, neither have others who have used it for hundreds of miles. It's almost like speculation means nothing and you need to actually try it. The bigger issue is the only two shell sizes and the fact that it costs Arai money.

@@flippy66 You're not wrong. The balance of a helmet is as much a factor as the weight of a helmet. A lightweight, but poorly balanced helmet can cause you more grief than a heavier well well-balanced one.
