I currently have a scala rider installed in my helmet and I love the functionality, but the sound pretty much sucks for music.

I've been looking at some of the new bluetooth helmets and wonder if anyone has any thoughts on which ones sound/function the best.

It looks like the main ones these days are:

1. Nolan n-com
2. Vemar Jiana
3. Bluetek
4. Others?

Thanks!

Honestly I think they are all a bad idea, anyone that wants or will ever try to talk on their cell phone while driving let alone riding in my opinion sucks.

That being said you can get some good normal headphones and 90% of all normal helmets have a place inside the padding for the speakers to glue or tape into and then just run the wire out the back and plug into your mp3 player if you dont like normal headphones.

sorry I couldnt help with the bluetooth question i have no experience with them other then most of them are heavy and butt ugly

I hope you're talking about just playing music, and not talking on the cell while riding..

 

My main uses are:

1. GPS directions
2. Intercom
3. Music (but not very often since I find it a bit distracting)
