  Identical to the FreedCom modular helmet

  We had to return the FreedConn modular helmet we ordered because they had nothing smaller than a M and that wasn't small enough. This helmet was $30 more than the FreedConn, but had the exact same BM2-S bluetooth electronics, so it paired and worked with the FreedConn. This was a relief.Aside from the integrated bluetooth controls, the 2 helmets were identical. I actually liked the FreedConn bluetooth controls slightly better, but both are very functional and seemed to work well.I think that these helmets are a great value and look really sharp. Just watch out when you turn the bluetooth off because it's easy to think you did, but if the blue light is still on, you didn't hold the multi-function button in long enough and will drain down the battery without realizing it. The helmet arrived with the bluetooth battery fully charged.All in all, we are very happy with the purchase. They are DOT certified, and similar Snell approved helmets are more than twice the price. Something to keep in mind as helmets are "supposed" to be replaced every 5 years.A single modular Shoei helmet with bluetooth was $1000. You really do pay through the nose for the Snell certification. There is that old saying that you get what you pay for, but these helmets are more than adequate for our purposes, and of course way better than no helmet at all. Helmets are not required in NH.Expect the helmet to be quieter with the face shield up instead of down. We prefer to drive that way anyway, and having the integrated sun shield is really nice. My wife can use that with her prescription glasses.The sizing chart did appear to be spot on based on measurements of the head it was purchased for.

  It is made for a round head.

  This helmet is nice. Though, it is made for a round head. And the size difference between large and medium are apparent. I picked up another ILM first in Large but it is too loose. So I picked up this one and there are differences. First the size is a thing.. it seems shorter top to bottom. The chin flap catches on my face. And it isn't as deep in the face as the shade lens tickles my nose..I do have an oval head shape so that makes a difference too.The big difference or note is the flip up is a different mechanism. It has a firm stop/ hold and makes the up and down at lights a bit finicky. Always adjusting the fit from the shift of latching or lifting. I'll update this as time goes on but thats a ride #1 impression.Oh the BT works fine. The charge port is a pain if your not paying attention. The set up is simple. And the sound quality is basic. Not like you need much more in a helmet and still hear traffic noises. Made a standing call and the other end of the line said they could hear and knowing its a hemet mic voice quality was expected.. good enough for info but not a casual comfort call to a loved one.

  I never provide feed back except for my fellow bikers :)

  I'm sure you bought this for the same reason I did, to have some tunes while you're rolling down the highway & my review is mostly about that. Came in 2 days - WOW!!. I had a small issue with the comfort level [maybe because I'm a big guy & my head reflects that ?] but customer service replied next day & got resolved so 5 stars on that ! Bluetooth so far only has only picked up the music stored on my Galaxy phone but I want to use a bluetooth mp3 player instead of my 4 year old phone (trying to put off that $700-$1,000 next phone purchase !!!!) & the 1st bluetooth player (4.0) I bought didn't work but will keep trying until I find one that will (will update this if I do to help you out, may take a while) but in the mean time I've got music I can listen to ! Sound quality - Having trouble hearing my music above 50 MPH but I'm a old fart in his 60's & I know I've lost a little bit of my hearing due to working around extremely loud machinery back in the day before OSHA & manatory ear plugs so you'll have to take this with a grain of salt but I think I found a solution, after doing some music research I noticed my entire music collection of 1000's of songs was in the mp3 format & discovered that the FLAC format (larger KB files but also much higher quality & sound volume) is the way to go so I picked 200 must have music favs to acquire in this format , example: my average mp3 music file is 5,000 kb but the new songs I'm getting which I'm about half way in the middle of doing as I stopped to do this review are from 20,000 kb - 850,000 kb, 850,000 being the largest music file I've aquired so far & is of CD quality, why am I just finding out about this ? :) Opening my MP3 music file & my new FLAC music file & clicking back & forth on the same songs is completely night & day, my god what a HUGE difference, the quality & sound volume is crazy good !!!!! Will update you guys if this solves the problem !! Oh & the inside flip down sun visor is just frigging AWESOME !!! Peace out:)UPDATE: Luckly on my 2nd attempt I found a 4.0 bluetooth player [4.1 & higher will not be compatable with this helmet from my research, if you find one that is then feel free to correct me on this so I can order one too !] & here it is:16GB Clip MP3 Player with Bluetooth 4.0, AGPTEK A50S Lossless Sound Music Player with Armband for Sports, Supports FM Radio Voice Recording and 128GB Expanding, BlackLINK: https://www.Bolo.com/gp/product/B07F33HVY3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Apparently I bought the last one here because at the moment it says out of stock but I saw it listed else where on Bolo so you can still get it ! The other MP3 player that wouldn't work with this helmet that I sent back was fancy dancy & only had on screen buttons like a smart phone & hard as hell to figure out & now I'm glad it didn't work, sorry I'm not taking my eyes off the road for anything but this player is old school & has a raised button key pad & I can reach over to my right wrist & use the only button I need - the fast forward button without having to look over at it !!! Volume control is on the helmet so I'm good to go !! Also I found a rubber wristband laying around the house so I put the player on that.UPDATE on sound quality for phone: After upgrading my music files to the FLAC format I went one step further & downloaded a high def music player called Neutron (by Eval, I got the free version but I think I'm going to cut loose with $6.99 & upgrade it cause its that good) which has much better sound & volume which will only be used if I use up the 30 hours on my new Bluetooth player ! Hope this was some help & saves you some time (I'm retired & got all the time in the world :) ) P.S. 2 people asked me about contacting the seller, you can only do this thru their Bolo account"Two wheels move the soul" - RIDE SMART, RIDE SAFE !!

  ,Definitely a good value for what you’re getting in the red flip up front is a big plus

  Really nice helmet sound quality is what you would expect out of a helmet it’s not like a living room stereo but it’s adequate nice to hear your tunes when you’re riding with her one size up from your normal size because it does run small, I got an extra large for myself and medium for my three girlfriends they all liked it and said it was comfortable.(yes I have three girlfriends that like to ride)

  It saved my life!

  On May 8th, 2022, I was riding my motorcycle at about 55mph when an SUV turned in front on me. I collided with the back side of his vehicle with my head and body. my helmet left a dent in the car, but my head was safe! I broke a lot that night, but I had no head, neck, or spine injuries and I am sure this helmet saved my life! I want to Thank ILM for making a great product! I will be back on a motorcycle soon and I am for sure getting another ILM!
