Caberg Duke anyone used one?

[Shunt]

Tomorrow I`m 90% sure that Im chucking my Origine helmet back at to Infinity Cos its Crap! Leaks better than a sieve.

Tried the Caberg Trip which is a good fit for me, Which is rare. I really struggle to find a lid that fits ok. So I may be swapping for this one.

Anyone using one? Be even better if someones tried the Caberg Just Speak thingy too.

Or anyone recomend another lid that infinity stock?

Cheers All

I have one. It's a decent lid to be honest. If I were to be critical, it's perhaps a bit noisy but not bad. Haven't had any issue with it in the year I've had mine.

Price is pretty good too.

Happy enough with mine, tis a bit noisy as stated.. Ear plugs are the answer!!

I bought one earlier this year to replace an aging Caberg J1. Good fit and good build quality. Also not just pinlock ready but supplied. Good value.

Thanks all. It's what I went with. Mainly because it was the best fitting helmet in the shop. Apart from that crappy leaky origine gladiator.

I did about 4hrs on the bike with it last night. So far I'm impressed. As said. Bit noisy around the hinge. But quieter than I'm used too.

At £145 with a pinlock it is good value. Just gotta choose a Bluetooth unit to go with it in the future.

Hi,

I have the same helmet as you've just bought.
In just over the year i have owned it, its been brilliant.
I use a Cardo Scala rider Q3 with my helmet and it works brilliant and fits the helmet really well.

Excellent. Cheers for the scala tip. Nice to know it fits in well.

Tbh I have forgotten to update this post.
I did exchange the Origine Helmet ( piece off crap don't buy one unless u like leaks)

For the caberg. I do find the caberg to be a very warm lid compared to what I'm used too. I doubt I'll be using it in the summer. But great for this time off year and beyond I reckon.

Bit noisy around the hinge area, but only really an issue when pushing on shall we say

But mainly no leaks and I've only had it slightly mist up. Literally about 1/4 inch at the bottom. On a very very wet day when I think some water got in when I had the chin up at a stop.

So far so good.

Cheers all

Pete

Sintesi

Had a Caberg sintesi for two years good fit and value, but does leak badly at the top of visor

I was looking for a new flip front and this may fit the bill. You mention water ingress on your old one. My Shark is guilty of this. How does the Duke hold up when closed in heavy rain? (if anybody has experienced it that is).

Also saw this when googling the helmet.

So far mines been water tight. It has been well tested lately. Doing about 200 miles a week currently.

If it does leak I'll be taking it back
