HJC R-PHA 70 - Shuky Blue

Fortuitously, as I need to replace my old helmet, the R-PHA 70 went on sale. This helmet has most the features I like - relatively light, quiet, integrated sun shield, great visibility, etc. The fit and aesthetics are good, too. The only downside is that it doesn't have accommodation for coms, e.g., a 20B system, but that's a minor thing. Overall, recommended.

I haven't worn this out yet but the fit is quite tight, in terms of the padding. I ordered the size correct for my head width but it was still a bit tight. I hope it will bed in time cos this is an insanely pretty helmet with seriously good features - ventilation, visor lock etc.

Have worn HJC helmets for many years and they are great quality. The RPHA 70 has the inner tinted visor, Pinlock and lots of vents but note they are snug fitting with the cheek pads being quite firm. Am hoping these will bed in with wear.

Great premium helmet, finish is quality and so is the design. Liner and foam feel plush and brand is reliable.

SBS service was 5* as always

Good quality light helmet - I had an older HJC flip front before and like the brand HJC. This one seems really good with some nice features like the positive snap shut visor and the detail around the vents. Hoping it will be much quieter than my other helmets due to the good snug fit of the padding. Internal sunglasses have a nice actuation mechanism

A great helmet, quiet and comfortable

Very impressed with this helmet. I wear glasses and after removing the ear pads, they fit great. No issues when using the internal sun visor either. (Recommend removing breath guard if wearing glasses).
Feels very premium and worth it for the relatively low cost compared to the bigger name brands.

What a great helmet an upgrade in a previous HJC - it's so quiet and fits perfectly snug. The visor mechanism is smooth and much easier to operate.. all round great helmet

Fantastic helmet, that is light and comfortable to wear all day. I recently did a 430 mile day while wearing this and got off the bike feeling like I'd never had a lid on my head.

I bought this to replace my Arai Dark Citizen lid, which cost far more, and although more plush inside, weighs a tonne.

The fit, finish and sound proofing are all good - this is my second HJC helmet and it won't be the last.

My Sena 50R intercom fitted easily and the speakers were far enough away from my ears to avid contact all day.

Overall, I am delighted with my new HJC.

1st non Arai lid I have purchased in 20 years. £249 in the sale, feels more like a £500 helmet.
Very light, did a 6 hour ride with it on the 1st wear. Minimal neck ache. Vents are well placed and kept me cool in the heat. Visor mechanism is excellent and, came with a pinlock insert. The drop down sun visor is a revelation, so easy to use, great when filtering on a hot day.
The only thing I missed from my Tour X4 was the peak, riding west into late afternoon sun. That being said, if I went for a long ride today, I'd be grabbing the HJC. Great bit of kit.

Really like this helmet. Fits well with good ventilation.

SBS were really helpful in sizing too.

My previous helmet was an HJC it was a comfortable fit at Large 59-60 (as all my helmets are), I bought this in same size and I nearly couldn't get it on my head, go one size up. I got XL and it's still snug but feels right. Lovely helmet the Matt finish looks amazing, the vents are really easy to use and all the materials are top quality. I've taken one star off because so far the pinlock hasn't worked very well and I can't seem to close the visor fully without steaming up, so I will have to try adjusting.

Third HJC I've bought. Highly recommended. Had problem with this Kate's one which Sportsbikeshop sorted impressively quickly.

Delighted with this helmet, great price, good ventilation and comfortable from the off.
Lightweight and looks great.

Great fit tighter than expected worn it around the house moulding into my head with wearing , excellent quality yet to try it out on the bike but lighter than my shoei neotec as expected and pin lock included quality belays the price would recommend
