Roof RO200 Carbon - Speeder Matt Black / Steel

I ordered the Roof Speeder carbon helmet, as I have an ongoing neck problem, and wanted a light helmet.

Wow! What a difference 500g makes! I did wonder if there was actually a helmet in the box when it arrived.

The fit for me, is spot on (59/L). The lining is not the plushest, but is very comfortable in any case. Removable cheek pads give reassurance, the pinlock insert works well, and the inclusion of a tinted visor along with the clear, is a definite plus.

In use, the lightweight nature of the helmet gives my neck an easy time, and on my Street Triple at least, there is zero buffeting for 95% of the time. The peripheral vision is also excellent.

Thanks to Sportsbikeshop, not only was it delivered quickly, but the discounted price, was amazing.

If you're looking for a great lightweight helmet, give this a try!

On paper this ticked all the right boxes. I've used Shoei helmets for decades but I knew SBS would have a no quibble returns so went ahead with the order. My only concern was head shape and size, I usually buy 61/62cm and this was 61cm but I needn't have worried as it fits just like my Shoei... and the weight, wow, never worn a lid that weighed just over 1Kg! Double D fasteners, wide angle pinlock visor which uses friction to stay exactly where you put it, minimal wind noise... this lid just oozes quality from every angle. Lots of vents to fiddle with and you get a chin guard and nose guard in the box so you can vary the amounts of fresh air depending on season. Bonus is the dark smoke visor (race only) which looks stunning on, and rucksack helmet bag!
