LS2 Helmets Valiant II Modular Helmet

I got the silver/titanium color. It's so much nicer in person than the pictures, or than I could have imagined. Chin guard moves and locks into place like butter. Sun visor moves like butter, and DROPS DOWN ALL THE WAY!! Peripheral vision is great, and you have a good field if view vertically. Includes pinlock. I couldn't get the smallest amount of fog on the visor no matter how hard i tried. In addition to the pinlock, the chin guard has the flap on the bottom that blocks the wind and helps keep the heat in and dust out. Another weather oriented design that surprised me is that the visor sits on this of the chin guard. You must lift the visor out of the way to lift the chin guard, but this will hello keep rain out - which is the number one reason I am replacing my ILM modular. I'll get used to flipping the visor up. Includes the usual bag, but this is a nice thick one that might actually protect it and last a while. Also includes the camo backpack in addition to the typical bag. That's really cool. Also included an inflatable neck thing to support the weight of the helmet in long trips. I will definitely be using that. I usually wear a medium. It's a little tight, maybe I should have ordered a large. I'm sure it will break in. It's hands down the fanciest helmet I've ever put on my head. Best modular I've seen and I've worn most of them. I'm glad I didn't buy the shark.

This is the third LS2 Valiant I have bought for my wife, and she absolutely loves it. The helmet's versatility is phenomenal and she raves about the comfort level of the helmet. Unlike most "round" helmets you do not get a lot of chin lift or head wobble even at speeds approaching 110mph. I recommend trying the hemet in-store as the fit and sizing can be a little finicky, and it is one of the lesser forgiving helmet shapes. I have a very round head and the model fits me very poorly, and creates hot spots on the top and sized of my head (even when sized properly). In all, its a great helmet (if it fits your head), and you will not be upset with the breathability or longterm wearability. She has been wearing them for 3+ years averaging over 10k miles per year.

I really like this helmet. I had a single piece full face helmet for over 30 years but had always wanted a modular helmet. When I read that this one also had a built-in sun visor I decided to try it. I measured my head and it came to 59.75 cm so I bought the 59-60 (large) It was too tight so I returned it for the 61-62 ( x-large) cm. That fits better in the head and temple area, but is still a little snug in the cheeks, but not uncomfortable. These helmets are for oval heads ( I think) and mine is closer to circular. I almost went with the 2x, but you don't want the helmet loose on your head. While it seems to be a little noisier than my older Bell, it does seem to let in sound from cars coming up from behind. That weirded me out at first, but you get used to it. I have a full windshield so I don't get a lot of wind noise. If you ride without a windshield you may not hear the cars coming up. In any case, don't rely on that for making lane change decisions. I used the helmet a few times with the temperature in the 50 F and it was warm. You don't get a lot of air flow through the vents, but as I said I ride with a windshield.

First, the Amazon bad: Someone must have been in the package. When the helmet was delivered it was in the backpack, sliding around inside a big generic box. There were no instructions, neither was there a dark face shield. Fortunately the Pinlock was also sliding around in the box. I guess it's possible the original box was torn up and in the process things were lost. Regardless it's unfortunate that I didn't get the complete package. The Helmet itself: As some have said, it isn't a 'quiet' helmet. It is louder than the Shark it's replacing. Beyond that it is very nice. Fit and finish are good. The tab on the face shield used to open it is in an odd location, top center. It's only odd because I'm not used to it. On my four day trip to break it in I got used to reaching for my forehead to open the shield. The lever to lower the internal dark shield is easy to find and operate. Some expressed concerns with the release for the chin bar. I have had no issue operating it with summer or heavy winter gloves. Haven't had any rain yet so I can't speak to the seal on the face shield. I don't know if it can be adjusted (since I didn't get any instructions). I'll have to look online to see if it's possible. Overall, a nice helmet Update: contacted the manufacturer and told them of the missing part. They quickly sent out a dark shield to replace the missing one. Apparently they don’t create instructions any more since they sent a series of links (that didn’t provide any info) but they tried. So thumbs up to the manufacturer. Amazon didn’t respond to the issue though.

Dei tanti caschi modulari da me provati, devo dire che questo è un buon compromesso! Silenzioso, comodo e adattabile sia per l'uso cittadino che per un uso sportivo!

Ausprobieren konnte ich ihn noch nicht beim fahren. Ist ja Winter. Aber habe ihn schon 3x aufgehabt und ist super....;-) Bewertung zum fahren kommt noch.

Super produit, emballage parfait, livré avec housse et sac a dos. Très satisfait niveau qualité /prix

Il casco è veramente ottimo. Sono davvero molto soddisfatto dell'acquisto: essendo modulare, lo si può utilizzare tranquillamente sia in estate che in inverno. Ho applicato anche un interfono, in modo piuttosto semplice. Il prezzo è un po' alto, devo dire, rispetto ad altri prodotti simili (piccola "pecca"). Inoltre,a volte la visiera non si chiude benissimo al "primo colpo" (penso sia dovuto all'utilizzo).

Vielen Dank. Inklusive tollen Rucksack für den Helm.
