I bought this helmet thinking it was safe a car pulled out infront of me in which knocked me off my motorcycle I landed face first on the road forcing the button to open my visor I broke my jaw, nose and was in intensive care for several months after resulting in £25,000 face reconstruction surgery. I informed caberg and they refused compensation I took them to court and lost more money I do not recomend this helmet to anyone who cares about the safety of themselves.

Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, it's impossible to determine if a different brand or type of helmet or a full-face helmet would have provided more protection or less...

Could not have asked for a more informative review on the site, and this is a great vid. Thanks a lot for the time and effort :). I just bought one new for £85 - can't wait for it to get delivered.

[wbwvids]

Thanks, glad we could help! Sounds like you got a steal...

@basilbushbaby yep, for some strange reason almost no biker can ever imagine himself crashing face first on the asphalt. That s why we buy helmets after looks, not safety. I ve landed face first once and low sided with several facial contacts to the ground also. On both occasions I had the ugliests MTR helmets you could possibly imagine but thanks to them I still look pretty and healthy. GUYS THINK OF YOUR SAFETY. When we die we go away but we leave sad people/families behind us <3

@basilbushbaby man thats fucked up to hear... i have this helmet and always felt that the hinges closing the flip front looked kinda scrawny...guess i am gonna be changing it out... (its a shame really, rhyno is by far the coolest design i have seen).

@wbwids i think ur right too. maybe the answer it to drop the flip fronts in general?

i have one of these. after 18 months the visor ratchet system has failed and it only stays fully open or shut. nothing in between. it mists up terribly and is completely dangerous. i now have a proper helmet; a Shoei XR1000. i'll never buy a Caberg again

[irishyetiboy]

well I got one after your review, great lid for the price £87. quality is not bad, not that of my AGV s4. its a noisy lid even with ear plugs in at high speed, I use mine for City riding as it handy. You feel like you have a much better veiw with the shape of the visor.....Overall I'm happy with it its a good lid fora good price and it has 5star rating in the sharp tests.

[irishyetiboy]

great review...well done.

[glenlockett]

Thanks for the Video. Great review, as I am looking to buy one. The info you have provided has convinced me.

Thanks for featuring the helmet

I don't believe you, photos or it never happened.

[calumarthur1989]

worn this helmet for a year now, no problems at all! No condensation at ALL, this is a big thing seeing I live in Scotland!

[bosmanbee]

I have this helmet. Internal sun visor always touching my nose - it's not comfortable :/

[shadowwithers]

worn this helmet for 10 months, very comfortable and it doesnt leak in the rain! condensation problem? never experienced it. internal sun visors fantastic in dusk ride when the suns just in your eyes. When its hot open your visor a little cool are rushing in sors the hot head but it does get noisey! tried other brands havent found one that beats it yet!

Kat Shah Alam Abg Wan orang yang pertama pakai Helmet Caberg Rhino ni. Very cool and stylish.Macam bawa jet pejuang pulak.

Just bought the helmet today. Very pleased with the quality. We've got a few storms due the next few days so I'll test it out then.

[wbwvids]

Good question - most helmets leak, some worse than others. Perhaps some owners can comment on leakage in the Caberg Trip during a rain storm?

[Th3BritishGuy]

Great review on the Caberg Trip on your website btw. I checked it out last night and I want to get it even more now. I'm going in to town today to get all my gear, still no bike however lol. How bad is this water seepage through the visor in bad weather? Will it happen in a light shower or does in have to be a proper downpour?

[wbwvids]

Glad to hear it, I sold mine in the annual webBikeWorld spring garage sale and I'm now sorry I did, it's one of the best flip-ups out there!

[Th3BritishGuy]

I checked out this helmet today in store (I'm getting my first bike soon) and I was impressed. I know it's probably just me cos I've never had a helmet before, but this thing was awesome. It was comfortable, stylish and so easy to use with gloves on. I was especially impressed with the flip mechanism, which I had never seen before. The flip mechanism is also very handy as I wear glasses and helmets I had tried previously were problematic but this. This was great. Definately going to buy Caberg!

[crickiit]

look like my paintball helmit

[warwickstingray]

One of only two system helmets that got 5 stars! And the flip front stayed completely shut in 90% of impacts. Which is the bit that has always worried me most about flip front helmets. To better it you have to spend £280 on a BMW helmet which stays closed 100% of the time.

[GeertKr]

Nice framerate.

[fartbandit]

This helmet just got 5 stars in the recent flip lid SHARP helmet safety tests...

[ToadkillerDog]

the alcohol rub and washing with mild soap and water got rid of 90% of the condensation issue. Thanks for the follow-up tiy :)
