My 5 year old Evoline2 has been excellent for me.
I love the ability to convert to open face and will be replacing with an Evo One or an Evoline3.

Hi, I've always used nolans helmets, I heard about the viper thought wow built in Bluetooth all for £150 , WHAT a waste of money , I got the flip front version , you have to squeeze helmet together to close it , Bluetooth won't connect to another brand helmet , sound quality poor but worst of all is the wind noise is horrendous better of with a beanie hat.

Yep just looked at caberg duke nice looking lid and the just speak intercom looks ok as well. Can get it from infinity bikes 250 all in. So its in the maybe list at least 👍 Might av a look at hjc lids as well. They get good shout in the states so will check em out too.

another option, affordable enough to allow you to purchase a headset ......just a thought

Nice lid, and a bargain!

Just 2 problems: it's not flip-face and there doesn't seem to be any Bluetooth for it :no:

Cheers

well you can't win 'em all  :mfr_lol: 

Flip fronts do tend to be a bit more pricey

I know that they're a tad pricey, but after trying on a C3 basic at DemonTweeks, I was won over.
Still feel Shoei are the best made and fitting for my head, love my GT AIR for day to day, but after having a Givi X08 flipper for a few years, trying the Schuberth C3 was amazing, so light, good fit and ventilation, Cardo headset fits a treat, and Tweeks 24 months on the knock, interest free suits me to a tee.
Agree fully with all previous, try as much as you can for fit and comfort, yes you do get what you pay for, and as far as built in Bluetooth, sorry, it's a helmet first, buy it for comfort, fit and safety.
Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

Ye ok lid oc but im thinking im gonna go for a mid range lid maybe hjc or similar and put in an intercom after. Ill go to infinity n try a few out. As you say the fit is most important it is a lid first 👍👍 :punk:
