Looks interesting. I using the open face model now.... Quite ok.

but screw for the helmet visor need to tighten once in a while

 

I also have the Multi-tec - 1 word

COMFY

 

 

 

Bro, another cheaper and good alternative is AGV Longway flipup. I got it for $250 and had been using it for past 5 months, its good =)

Nolan inner liner too thin. Use 3mth + sold off.

 

Shoei still the one.

^_^

price... thanks to appreciating YEN (wonder why)

 

but it was the external shade that got to me...

[iknowuwanthislah]

$650 ?!?!

 

Back in the day, I got a pair of those at $480 from Regina.

 

Of course mine is abt 3 yrs old now.

that must have been 30years ago, not 3yrs! haha..

the sunshade was what interest me, as i dunid to wear shades anymore..

but den, the design, (i havent tried it) seems like it might get caught with the upairwind (esp on higher spds)

[iknowuwanthislah]

oh, yes, hows the weight of the helmet, as compared to others ?

[anodise57]

Multitec is one of the lightest available in SG....

Pertaining to Flipup.

Unless u can get the ROOF helmet.. hahaha

$480 each.

 

Missed that one out.

 

So $650 now is nearly $200 more than what i paid for.

[swoosh]

OGK Valer supposedly lighter then the Multitec it is priced at 40 percent cheaper ard $300... DeusExMachina is right, Regina used to sell the Multitec at 480 or cheaper 3yrs ago.

[iknowuwanthislah]

well... they alwz use the "yen go up" excuse..

even thou our SGD has appreciated amg major curriences like USD...

 

anw, anyone got the OGK valor? should be out alr..

[snowclobber]

HJC CL-MAX good or not?

For the Valer, can the sunvisor be removed?

 

Other than the odd external sunvisor, the helmet looks good.

I have been monitoring the Valer's launch since June 2010 (original launch date)it was pospone several times and they finally did it in Feb 2011. When it was 1st introduced there is no sun visor de. I will be going to Regina to enquire this weekend, hopefully can at least hear the usual reply " will arrive in 2 weeks time" hahahahhaha

[crankcase]

Niiiiiiccccceee!!!! Internal sunvisor, Snell approved AND modular! What's not to love? Well, the price tag maybe... but I'll definitely be keeping a lookout for this one

Don't wanna rain on ur parade but I've been waiting nearly 2 years already. Haha

If you do happen to see it locally do let me / us know

 

Also if it has the "magic sticker"

Schuberth C3 for me...

 

World's Quietest Modular Helmet...

[iknowuwanthislah]

schuberth avail in sgp?

price?

[I_Ride_A_Bike]

chiap lee.

need to check for stock availability.

800+ at least.

[iknowuwanthislah]

even pricer than shoei multitec? the material?

[minime]

Schubeth C3 no doubt about it. Yup, it's pricier than the Shoei Multitec by $100+ more. But trust me, it's the best helmet you'll ever own. From the helmet bag to the helmet visors.(comes with sun visor,so just take it that you paid extra for it.) It's quality that you are paying for. It's the quietest helmet I've ever own. It's light and comfortable. And do take note that this is a modular helmet. I'm not saying that Shoei Multitec is not a good helmet. But if you have the extra just go for it and you'll never look back!

 

Oh yes, one thing that I don't like is, if have to point out one. It will be the buckle. Other than that, it would be a 10/10.
