Safety and quietness
27 March 2025 by Sergiy
The Schuberth C5 is a top-tier helmet, perfect for riders who prioritize comfort, safety, and quietness. While it comes at a premium price, the quality and features justify the cost. Highly recommended!

For me, perfect!

The Schuberth C5 is hands down the best helmet I’ve owned. Incredibly quiet, supremely comfortable, and well-ventilated, it makes long rides a pleasure. The flip-front mechanism is smooth, and the Concrete Grey finish looks sleek and modern.
I’ve added the Sena comms system, and it integrates flawlessly—crystal-clear audio for music, navigation, and calls, even at speed.
If you want a premium modular helmet that delivers on comfort, quietness, and tech integration, the C5 is worth every penny.

Take's a while to bed in, one part of lining near mic Connector keeps unclipping. Wind noise not as quiet as I was expecting .

I want to love it
03 March 2025 by Anonymous
The sun shield fogs in all weather conditions making it useless and dangerous.
The pin lock visor doesn't seal and so the main helmet visor also fogs constantly. Helmet sent back to Schuberth and returned with the same problem.
The filter for the mouth vent is simply pushed in place and has nothing to secure it from falling out.
Replacement visors are over priced.
The shell size is good and it's reasonably quiet but the other problems make it a hard helmet to love. I'll try a Neotech next.

Amazing helmet

What a excellent piece of kit.
Very comfortable and great finish helmet. Everything works so smoothly and do the job perfectly. Previously had a HJC RPHA 90s but got some issues with closing mechanism. Schubert is game changer for me. Highly recommend.
Great service and support from MK SBS team.

Quiet and quality
04 February 2025 by Anonymous
Just replaced my old Shoei due to age. Wanted a flip front with sunshade, Schuberth ticks those boxes nicely. Also a lot quieter than either of my full face lids, (the Shoei and a HJC), another tick.
Quality is as you would expect at both the price point and brand. Padding is great, not too thick that it squeezes the cheeks in. The fit also seems to be fairly non-specific, meaning it would probably fit both shaped heads, no need to worry if you're an Arai or a Shoei shaped head. There are also plenty of replacement parts available.
Don't know what else to say, the things I look for in a lid, noise comfort, quality… all ticked. No compromises. Very Happy, would gladly of paid full price but SBS had a sale on!! Great service from the team at Boston, as always.

Quality lid, great fit

Once I had fitted the thicker side and rear pads the fit was transformed for the better. Now it feels every bit as high quality as my Shoei and Arai lids.

Can't beat Schubert for quality style and fit. This is my 3rd helmet from SCHUBERTH in last 18 years. I've owned cheaper helmets but non compare especially when touring.

Quality lid.
23 January 2025 by Anonymous
Normally a Shoei head, when I needed a new lid I tried on this one after the Shoei Neotec. I found this one to be much more comfortable and seems lighter. Equally as well made and feels like it will work. Yet to really try on long ride or in wet conditions to see if pinlock works and not yet fitted comms. But definitely quality and well made helmet.

Still good

Been riding in the C3Pro for many years. Time to replace with the C5. I waited as we all know about the issues with what happened in between! Glad I did, as they have got it right this time. Venelation is improved as is the vision and Pinlock. Wind noise is much the same as the C3Pro which was the most quiet helemet out there. Still the best lid out there.

Almost perfect
22 December 2024 by Barry W
Wanted to switch from a full face for convenience , and chose the C5 as I didn't like the neotecs which felt very heavy , the C5 just feels light and airy , ventilation is top notch and feels so light when it's on, my only gripe is that the visor mechanism doesn't feel as good as the neotec or my previous shark but I can live with it for supreme comfort and quietness!

My 1st flip helmet, great fit, easy to set up the coms if you buy them.
visor easy to take off and put back on, not the cheapest lid but well worth it. Glad I went for it!
Usual good sportsbikeshop service too

Quality Practical Helmet
10 December 2024 by Tim B
I've recently started to use Schuberth helmets after beginning to find Arai ones increasingly annoying. The Schuberth C5 is a very impressive practical helmet for everyday use. It is comfortable and very quiet - notably quieter than the C3. Of course, I've yet to find out how good at crash protection it will be - one thing you could depend on Arai for! But the Sharp rating is pretty good.
