Its cheap, wind noise is awful, vent plastics are easily broken. Serious wet visor issues.


General Comments

You pay for what you get with the Caberg Justissimo. I've just returned from a 3000mile European tour and I found the helmet far too noisy at any sensible touring speed, i find the helmet has lost its tight fit on my head and I've owned maybe ten other helmets before this one so this comment isn't uninformed.

The helmet has a very good internal black visor which is essential for me from now on. I really liked this feature.

My biggest issue with the Caberg was the rain coming in via the vent switch on the top of the helmet, down the internal black visor and dripping on to my already freezing face, the other issue is the visor itself. if you get caught in heavy rain for more than 20 mins the inside of the visor will fog slightly despite the vents and the supposedly anti fog coating, then you will find that you need to open the visor just a touch to let air in to clear the visor, on doing this the design of the visor means that water will drip down the inside of the visor and in my opinion make this helmet a danger on the road. this has happened to me twice now so I can confirm that this wasn't a one off ocurrance.

If i were in the market for another flip up helmet i would steer clear of the caberg and look at the £250 price range or higher.

also see my review for the AGV longway... similar issues mentioned.

    Highly informative review thanks, and completely in tune with the idea that 'the price of our heads should never be compromised by the price of our helmets'. There's only one horse left in my race now, the System 5.

    cheers!

    Yep I'd go with the system 5 too. I've heard great things.
