Спасибо ребята за видео, благодаря Вам я сделал свой выбор в пользу Scorpion ADX 2 и купил его вчера! Сначала он показался мне не удобным, очень тяжёлым и большим, но после того как я проехался в нём у меня отпали сомнения и я думаю, что это лучший шлем который у меня был. Я быстро привык к нему, шлем удобный и функциональный. На мою голову 58 см отлично подошел размер L и цвет я выбрал белый что бы летом было комфортнее на солнце.

After 50 years riding, I believe the most important safety factor in any helmet is vision. All the other protective features are necessary if restricted vision causes lack of awareness and leads to a preventable accident. Don't get me wrong, accidents from other causes happen and all other safety features come into play but if restricted visibility is built in, risk escalates. I bought one of these helmets as a stop gap measure for a damaged Nolan and I like it so much it's now my go to helmet. As you say, so comfortable, great vision, all the features you need and a great price point. Oh and did I mention, they look damn good as well!

@nkwd007 Месяц назад

I agree 100%. This is the reason why I am not a great fan of Shoei. I have 2 helmets from them but now I clearly see that their vision is very limited. So despite the fact their are so comfortable and well made, I do not trust them fully.

@gaelc13 Год назад

I own a cardo bold, and it came both with the pinching system and with adhesives. You can take the mounting plate and just stick it to the helmet, which is exactly what I did, since otherwise I could feel the pinch in my helmet. Also, cardo sometimes comes with JBL speakers, which are larger, and that may sometimes be a problem as they don't fit in the built-in slots of the helmet.

@alexps6060 Год назад

I have the ATX-2, it's great - comfy - works with my Cardo Bold Packtalk and has JBL speaker cut outs already. It's the top of the budget range IMO, as compared to high end it isn't that quiet and lacks free motion protection, quite heavy too. Great for what it is.

@millinutz 2 месяца назад

Just bought one of these as a result of this Video. Thanks RiderCamTV, for the detailed review. A review that did not give me the feeling I was being reeled in to buy this against my will, but a true and sincere advisery review about a Helmet and all it's pros and cons... full stop! PS this is my 1st full face Helmet after 30 years of open, so called "Jet" helmets.

@Keith24GB Год назад

I think you need to have another look at the Packtalk comms units, as they fit onto helmets with ease.

@duckbeneathpigeons Год назад

I’ve used the ADX-1 for 2 seasons and about 15000 miles. Cracking helmet. It could do with being replaced soon. Probably between this and the HJC Rpha 90. The proprietary hatch for comms might rule this out as I have a cardo in that location and I don’t really like the idea of putting it higher up 🤷‍♂️

@JaySalvoUK Год назад

Hi guys, the Neotec is P/J approved. Doesn’t have to have the lock, it has a further click position which holds it open and that allows it to have the ‘J’ for jet approval. Unless it’s changed in the last month?

@conraddowding1131 Год назад

Can you remove the triangle piece in the bottom front? I find that it is misting up, even with the oinlock fitted.

@MotorbikeHamster Год назад

I have the same issue with the inbuilt coms units. I understand that they are doing it on Safety reasons but they are awful and as you say the mounts get in the way of the coms we already have. It makes new helmet buying difficult.

@jeremyfallowes6154 Год назад

M & T - do you know the safety rating comparison to say a Shoei neotec? The price comparison is very good at below £200!!

@markholroyd5365 Год назад

Hiya! Scorpion rate as high as many “over priced” helmets,hence why we always look around.

@c00ldfeet84 Год назад

Very good vid i quite like the scorpion 2, i had the neotec then the neotec 2 and its not has good as the neotec which was a lot quiter, but i agree there is no need to spend ridiculous amount of money on helmets nowadays, i was told by a police rider they are only tested at 18 mph for impact. And you would probably have brain damage anything over that speed. Stay safe and keep the good work up.

@sdefiel3719 Год назад

I have the EXO AT950 and the new EXO AT960 which are the additionally DOT certified versions of the ADX1 and 2 for American markets. The EXO AT960 is a good helmet. Adventure helmets typically have a long chin/snout area ostensibly for better ventilation/breathing while you are working the ruts, rocks and ridges of your _adventure_ trail. However, the EXO AT960 has very little space there near your lips. It may be because the new interior vent switch takes up the area. It's not bad, but some may find it a bother. I find that the Scorpions I have had are slllllllightly rounder than my HJC, Shoei, Arai and other brands. I say that because both my wife and I find more pressure in the forehead than in other brands. I went up a size on the new EXO AT960 just to mitigate that problem and I can still feel that there _may_ be some issue there. The helmet is new though and I haven't ridden all day in it yet. Otherwise, yes, it is a very comfortable helmet ... as nice as my Shoei and the wife's Arai _collection._ :) The US model has the DD clasp. Nice review, thx, S

@tedthurgate Год назад

Here is the thing I am wondering about... ECE is a much better standard than DOT. I would much rather have an ECE certified helmet, but in the US we are required to have a DOT certified one. Any ECE helmet will meet DOT standards, but without the sticker it technically isn't legal. So, is the EXO AT950 the same helmet just with a different sticker? Does it meet, but not say that it meets ECE standard? I know no one here will know, but I wish we could know. I would get the US version if I knew it met ECE, otherwise I would rather take my changes on getting a ticket with an illegal helmet.
