Thanks for this! Just ordered 3 for only 6 euro's a piece here in The Netherlands for the Packtalk Bold. My current solution was to drill 2 small holes in the Shoei part and use small bolts to connect the cradle to the cover that way, but this is much nicer. Never got why Shoei started this deal with Sena. Who wants this? If you upgrade from Air 2 to Air 3 you need to by a new Sena system as well? It almost puts me off from buying Shoei...
ik en mijn vader zijn ook nog opzoek naar 2 adapters voor de Bold, heeft het goed gewerkt? Alle hulp is welkom! Als je de file nog hebt ben ik hier ook in geïnteresserd
Hi Steven, thank you!!! For creating this video, I followed the exact same steps and the unit has arrived and works a treat, really happy to have this solution it’s neat and tidy.
Freaking awesome! I have my Prusa mini+ printing out mine in PETG now. So glad I wound your video before sticking the mount on towards the back of the helmet! You rock dude
Thank you so much for sharing this, will be very excited to have it mounted soon. Have been looking for the right material to use, but will see first how it will be with PLA. If I don't trust that enough I'll order it in either PETG or ASA!
Thanks for the video and idea! I have Bold, so i used the other stl file, but unfortunately it (the project) was made very poorly, one side doesnt fit the helmet, other side doesnt fit the Bold 😢 Im afraid I'll have to resort to the tape 😢
Hi Steven, thank you for sharing ! Did you encounter any problem when trying to fit the 40mm/10mm JBL loud speakers inside the helmet ? (Because initially the SLR2 loud-speakers are much smaller - roughly 30mm diameter)
I see as of September 2023 that Cardo has come out with a Shoei Adapter to take the place of the Comm Cover on the Shoei helmet by default. I ordered one and I'm disappointed to find it is just to be held in place by adhesive. I would have thought it would have plastic prongs like the one it is replacing to simply hold it in place. I had placed an order (and then cancelled) to have one of the 3D printed ones. I wish I would have kept that order as it looks like that one has the prongs to hold the device in place, not just 3m tape like the Cardo version.
The Cardo one uses VHB tape, rather than the clips that Shoei (and the 3D printed ) use,. This pretty much renders impossible to remove. Seems poor solution
@@faraway5828 Agreed. I ended up placing a new order for the 3d printed one and will probably try to return the Shoei one. I made a video on my other channel about it. ruclips.net/video/LA2EbWgcpxE/видео.html
Unfortunately, I believe they can't make the actual SRL2 prongs as it would breach their contract with Sena. A 3D printed one is going to be your best bet. There are options for most units out there including one for a universal comms and is just a blank flat piece that sticks out.
@@calebmarsh5 Thanks for the note. On my other channel about bikes, I made a video about this. You are correct (well very close) as Cardo told me it would violate a Shoei patent. On my video I shared a copy of the email from Cardo. I obtained a 3D printed one, installed it, and haven't looked back. It's working very good. ruclips.net/video/u1SiGgiQgig/видео.html
very interesting solution you found.. congrats. Cardo does not make an clever (flush) adaptor for their PackTalk systems. This guy does. I also understand that for EDGE and BOLD are different adaptors. I have two BOLDs in my other helmets and looking for a third (3) comm to pair with the other 2. Once I have the 3rd comm (which I still don't know which model) Can you order the adaptor for me? There is a SENA SRL3 for my Neotec 3, but its difficult to pair with the Cardo. I'm far from UK, so its difficult for me. Thank you
I followed all the steps in your video and my experience was that they forgot to ship my product, when I received my product it was the wrong colour (I ordered black and got white, black even showed on my receipt) and the quality was absolutely terrible. Wish I could add a picture here. It looked like it had been dragged on the ground for miles. I have had to email them for a refund. The 3-D print adaptor is a great idea in theory, but the result was terrible for me. I'm glad your experience was better than mine.
I didn't keep the original stl file I'm afraid, and as you've spotted the file is no longer on Printables. Only thing I can suggest is you reach out to the user BoA_36226 on Printables and see if they can provide you with the file directly. However, there is an official Cardo one now I believe. www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/912218
@@stevenwyatt4632 are you still looking for one,im gonna get two made up and i could sell you the spare one,that way we pay less per part,it would be 18 plus posting so say 20
@@stevenwyatt4632 The file is there under shop with a $5 charge now, wonder if Shoei have been putting the squeeze on. The Cardo one is an adhesive mount rather than clip in as I believe Shoei wouldn't allow a clip in for licencing reasons.
Could you share how the boom microphone works in the Shoei Neotec 2 helmet? I see it in your video but am not understanding how it attaches and when you pull the chin guard down does the chin curtain hit the mic? I read another poster who said the sticky tape/velcro provided for the boom didn’t work well. Thank you for the video
Great video Steven, id like to buy 1 of the fitting that you had 3d printed, unfortunately im useless at computers, downloading etc, would you or 1 of the other guys who have commented on your video be able to help me purchase 1? Many thanks dave.

No, the 3 uses the new design (SRL-3), which has a different shape. I assume there will be 3D files for the SRL-3 connection in a little while. (This also means that if you had a 2 and bought the Sena, you need to buy a new Sena when you upgrade to a new helmet, adding 50% to your cost, crazy decision to go with dedicated system, I'm sticking with my Cardo's)
Doe’s anyone on here have a copy of the original file they could send me? Boa doesn’t have this on his page anymore. Can’t imagine why he’d take it off.
@@TheCaptnHammer Thank you for your kind and Considerate offer!, But I found the Clip on bracket does the job fine for me!, It’s solid and secure and I have tried it while riding and I found it fine!. Regards Kevin.

Hopefully there’s going to be a 3D adapter for the Neotec/GT-Air 3 that’s out now in Europe and maybe in the US by spring.
There is now and is on printables. I suggest getting a couple made because it is easy to break the spring catch.

i dont know how new it is, but cardo actually has a "Shoei Adapter" for the Packtalks.
Where do you get one?
@@mikedenney7139 on the cardo page or dedicated shops
