Very well presented, and easily understood for the non medical viewers. Thanks.

Awesome helmet! Very light and superb ventilation. Great helmet for those living in south east asia like me where it is summer all year! I love the fidlock system... no problem even with glove on. Really worth it like you said!

Excellent helmet review of the Klim Krios Pro. Choosing a Helmet can be somewhat of a minefield. I appreciate your in depth review and this has help me to narrow things down somewhat.

The review is what I'm experiencing - spendy, but worth it. Just got one yesterday. Walked into the shop and they had a closeout. (Last one, green scheme screamin deal, which is still expensive for a helmet) I've had good road helmets and so-so dirt helmets, but this Klim thing takes the cake for fit and comfort. For some reason, it also feels unreal safe and, so far, the Fidlock is pretty damned awesome! Makes D-rings seem like they are from the horse and buggy era.

Ive had mine about 18 months and it's been a great investment, agree with most of what you've said, but the lining I think is awful, so fiddly and naff. And as a doctor I'd of thought you'd have mentioned that its not the sort that is easily removed in an accident, say like in my Bell helmet, the cheek pieces are magnetic and easily pop off too allow easy helmet removal by a medium etc. Also one of the real plus points, especially from a noise point of view, is the accompanying Sena 10U intercom which fits into the back of the helmet leaving some very slimline buttons on the outside of the helmet. This helps reduce wind noise massively, Ive had lids with intercoms on the outside and they create so much wind noise. Nice review, it's certainly a cool helmet in the summer, for a few reasons, certainly the best adv helmet going for me

you explained it best. super

Thanks for a thorough consumer oriented review. The lightness, ventilation and auto darkening visor are the big selling points that make me want to spend three times as much for the Klim Krios Pro. BTW - Klim employees pronounce it "climb", so I guess that's the correct pronunciation.

i just have this Klim..actually ,i had airoh commander size XXL,but this Klim size L and it's comfort for me..the foam is so comfort for me

I like my helmet and I got it with the Sena U system installed. I love the helmet but my only complaint about it would be the low volume of the SEna. I’ve had the helmet for over a year and I’ve never heard people talk about the fact carbon fiber helmets do not help with sound. The ARAI XD Is good and does not inhibit your installed Bluetooth, nor does the Shoei.

for me klim and arai x4 are the top helmet of the category...I bought arai cause make feel more secure but I would like to get also klim because is amazingly light!!

I have white one and i love it

Great Review - is the transitions visor now Road legal in the UK?

Could you comment on how the Krios Pro fits and sizes in comparison to a Shoei? Basically, are you XL in both and both fit similar etc? Thanks a lot

When I have this thing on it's top edge is at my eyebrows with the XL! Tried the Medium, too small, but the shell was smaller and the top edge not on my eyebrow. So I think it depends on your head shape and size. This guys weird head shape has the top edge considerable ABOVE his eyebrow. So which shell size and which head shape you have will make a huge difference! I have yet to try the Large. Wonder if it is an in-between shell size or a Medium or XL shell size?

ADV Noobie were you not on the same weekend at Sweet Lamb as I, beginning of August? Recognised the helmet!!

If this had 5 shell sizes like the Arai, I’d own one. It’s SO light

Thanks for reviewing this helmet. Have you tried it with intercom speakers? It didn't look like it has recessed areas to house any speakers. Just wondering how that would work with Cardo JBL speakers.

What are the shell sizes on these, will it make a small head look massive?

is it cold while riding in -10 weather, how about the fogging?

I'm going from an Icon Variant to this. Even with it's faults I'm pretty sure I'm going to love it. Also rainx is great, but does have ethyl alcohol, always start with a small test area if you're not sure if the material will be damaged. I like a nice car wax on my gloss helmets.

Thank you for this thorough, candid and honest review. I would welcome your views on sizing: is sizing consistent with the Shoei? I am an XL with thin cheeks with Shoei.. will a XL klim krios pro be true to size? Thanks!

Thinking of buying this model helmet. But unsure if it’s ok with glasses. Love the look of it but very much mixed reviews seen. Cheers.

Hi, please tell me about three imoprtan things for me. 1. What about visor during heavy rain, does it leak? 2. Are there cutted holes for intercome speakers? 3. What is noise reduction comparising to Shoei?

Thanks for your analysis. I have a question about fit. I have a size large Shoei helmet. How would that compare in sizing to the Krios helmet?

Yes

Had two of these helmets. Loved how they felt and great airflow. But both mine failed under warranty. On the top of the opening for the visor, there was a gap appearing between the foam and the outer shell of the helmet. By the forehead area. The fact that i had two fail within 6 months of buying them kind of put me off.

How is it in the cold weather? Can you install Sena intercom inside? Thanks a lot for the review :)

Noise levels inside the helmet? I've read that some folks think it's a noisey helmet - likely because of its lite construction. Any thoughts? Also what about keeping you dry in heavy down-pours? Those vents have got to be an issue?

What’s the actual head shape of this helmet? I know it’s advertised as an intermediate oval but that seems to be the most popular option and the default description in order to sell more helmets. So, is it a true intermediate oval? Or would it be more of a round or long oval?

I started off watching this hoping you would comment on the differences between the Klim and the Shoei Neotec. Do you have a separate review? I am hoping to buy one, but the price is borderline obscene.

With the different core, do these need to be replaced as often?

Is there enough room around the ears for a communication systems speakers?

Not all full face helmets allow for wearing glasses , but this one seems like one can?

Great write up, thanks. Could you comment on noise level with the helmet?

Simple questione. Where is it made? Thank you in advance.

Do you have peak vibrations on the helmet?

great review, you said you wore it in the winter, with all the vents closed and chin gaurd in, is there any air hitting your eyes. i wear contacts and air to the eyes is a no no for me.

is the Krios Pro MIPS ? I can only find one Klim helmet that is MIPS

I have a very large head and most helmet dont fit me do you think this is an exception? especially with the cheek pads 10mm?

Loved your review! I'm thinking about buying one myself. How is the noise compared to your Shoei? I imagine it's louder, but is it noticeable/annoying?

Pretty good video, however rainx is designed for glass not motorcycle helmets. Over time it can degrade the visor. The best thing is like some kind of carnauba wax you would use to wipe your bike off.

The Klim Krios Pro is a $800 helmet after taxes. You would expect perfection in all aspects and it's almost there BUT the visor will NOT stay where you place it. Open it up a few notches for extra air, first little dip or bump in the road and SLAM down it comes! I love everything about this helmet except the hinge plates. They are very cheaply made. It makes me wonder if anyone that actually rides tests them?? It is a $800 helmet WT Actual F?!

How noisy is it? Motolegends advertises it as a great urban and off road helmet but a poor one for touring because of the noise. Would you agree?

I crashed heavily wearing one of these, I broke 8 ribs and the outer helmet was very badly damaged but saved my head

mine is junk in the winter. it lets water in so bad you can't shut it in the rain

Only drawback of this helmet is the cheap visor lock which doesn't have any retain dents/notches and eventually the visor can not stay open midway and/or will fall down every time

Many thanks for this review. Is he really silent? I can't see an obvious answer. I even often have the two opposite answers each time: very noisy for some. Very quiet for others. Where is the truth?

How quiet was the helmet?

I found it hurts the front top of my head like there is no padding but hard plastic.

How is the noise level?

Klim rhymes with "slime"

Here in the U.S., the Klim-made videos featuring Klim employees all pronounce it with a long 'i' like in 'climate'.

This is my Humble opinion about the Krios Pro, the quality of the materials are not good, examples, first time I took my visor out and put it back in, I never had a complete airtight on the Helmet anymore, there always air coming through my visor, I notice this specially in cold weather. Another very much fragile component of the helmet is the head front tail, by walking I hit slowly the tail against a table and it was broken, it's not even fibre, it's just plastic. worst than that is that are no spare painted parts for it. The air vent control on the chin doesn't feel good on controlling the amount of air coming to your mouth. The helmet is very light and comfortable but has this disadvantages in my humble opinion after 2 years of use. I had a Schuberth previously and there is a big difference on these materials. If I would buy it again? Would have to check what is carbon fibre brand new on the market to take a decision.

The highly engineered closed cell foam in motorcycle helmets is good for 2 years, or maybe 3 before it becomes so hard that the energy absorption is essentially useless. You can't tell that unless you crash in it. So helmet prices have gone totally insane UNLESS they provide foam liner renewal services. All the decent helmets say in the fine print that the life expectancy is not over 3 years. And how long the helmet sat on the store shelves matters too. Buyer beware. No matter how fancy or expensive the helmet is, the same rules apply. Also, NEVER keep your gloves in the helmet. Any hydrocarbon fumes (like if you gas up with gloves on) are an early death to the foam. It will harden way faster if exposed to fuel vapors. I received this information from a seminar put on by Arai for our Ducati club. If this helmet doesn't use poly foam that is a potential game changer in the life expectancy of an expensive helmet. Very curious why no Snell. It also seems to have no first responder emergency cheek pad pull straps. I'm fairly sure those will eventually be mandatory.

research who actually makes them! a two bob outfit in asia

Klim = climb…….long i

I bought klim carbon helmet.İts very bad and very expensive.

it's a great helmet but i honestly think it's overpriced.
