GBQuinn Spitfire Got the Quinn spitfire model as a nice little treat for myself. It seemed a good helmet at a fair price with the right amount of tech inside. So now after using it for a while. I can now give a review of my personal experience. Design is neat and modern, and the helmet fits me snug and comfortable. The fact that the helmet has build in sunglass visor is a neat little plus. The helmets Bluetooth is easy and quick to connect. And from here it’s all down hill I’m afraid. The system is not compatible with other Bluetooth devices. The audio function for listening to music, making phone calls or using voice navigation is absolutely some of the worst I’ve ever tried. As soon as you go more than 40 Mph, the wind noise in the helmet is so loud that it makes the Bluetooth tech totally obsolete. You can’t hear anything at all. I tried contacting quinn support for advice. And got told to buy an thicker set of cheek pads (£30) to make the fit more tight. Didn’t work tho. Problem persists and there’s no solution to fix it. The rubber buttons on the side to adjust volume, skip tracks and making phone calls is almost impossible to operate even with the thinnest pair of gloves. Based on this I would not recommend this helmet to anyone. From Quinn there’s no help to get. No offer of refund although the product didn’t deliver as promised. This will definitely not be a company where I will be spending my money again Design and fit ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Build in tech⭐️ Quinn support and customer service ⭐️

GBYou Don't Always Get What You Pay For Enjoy the helmet's light weight and ratchet chin strap, but that's where the satisfaction ends. For the price, the quality of the helmet overall is lacking (former Shoei owner). The ventilation is poor and the vents themselves appear to be made of cheap plastic. The technology is a nice idea, but it is not Siri compatible which reduces ease of use. And although I do not own one, I'm told the Apple Watch has the ability to detect a hard fall and send emergency alerts and location coordinates, so there's that. Lastly, the sound quality of the helmet's speakers is incredibly poor. (All treble, no mids or lows). I listened to a friend's Sena system after the fact, and Quin has nothing on it. Bottom line is, this helmet is gathering dust on my shelf, and it's not for the lack of riding.

GBAn ok helmet. The sound quality of the speakers could be better. Got lots of wind noise. My inner liner isn’t flush inside the helmet on the left side. The weight is good. The retractable dark visor is good.

GBI have a Ghost umbra helmet I have a Ghost umbra helmet. It’s a good looking helmet! The speakers could be better sound like you are listening from a tin can. Could use more base. Helmet is pretty loud. I will probably be wearing the helmet with ear plugs. Customer service was good. If there is a way to swap out speakers it would be awesome! Like how light weight it is.

GBThe design and comfort of the helmet is… The design and comfort of the helmet is fantastic. My two stars are for the horrible sound quality of the speakers. They have no bass, all tweeter and hurt to listen to. I'm actively trying to sell this basically unworn helmet as I can't wear it. My Kardo system is so much better for sound quality.
