moved from a Caberg justissimo flip front to a V2 (non carbon) thinking it would be quieter with it being a solid helmet with less spaces for the wind to get in.. I was wrong...
Changed to the Caberg Duke flip lid (about same price as the V2 Carbon) and was surprised at the difference, so much quieter.. I think the noise problem came down to the side mounted internal visor levers position.. the Duke's design has moved it from the left side of the helmet to the top which really seems to have helped a lot..
Must say I like the idea of the carbon helmet though, is there a noticeable difference in weight over your previous helm?
