Real talk: amongst premium road helmets, this is one of the heaviest available. However, cool features - from the aero covers to the magnetic fidlock buckle. It’s bulky, which gives the appeal of safety on impact. Interesting offering.
After riding with it for over a month, i can only confirm the same. Best helmet i have had so far. Would be great if it would be a little cheaper tho 😂😂
Since you wear glasses do you ride in contact lenses or do you have prescription lenses in your bike shades? I wear prescription glasses myself and I haven't used contact lenses, so I'm little split between trying contacts and having cycling glasses with prescription inserts.
Loved this video! What is the main difference between the Sweet Protection Falconer Aero 2Vi MIPS and the Sweet Protection Falconer 2Vi MIPS Helmet? Price difference is just $50 which is not that bad and the only visible difference that I could tell was that the Aero version has the magnetic flaps.
love the review! Thank you! Are you still content? I am looking forward to buying one myself- But I noticed another thing. I love the look of your sunnies! Which are those? They look great and match the helmet!
Thanks a lot. Still loving the helmet. One of the best bike related purchases i made. The glasses are from a company called 100%. Very comfy and light as well.
Go9d review. How is fit? Spot on? Reason I ask, i currently have a Bell z20 Aero and the sizing I needed was L or 58-62 cm. The sizing for the Falconer is just a tad different but when I measure my heads circumference, I get 23" to 23.25 at best. I assume a M/L or should I size up? I hate helmet sizing and really wished it was a larger variable in each sizing from S to M to L so to speak.
I have to say it is the most comfortable helmet that i have ever worn. I now notice it as i m traveling and had to use my secondary helmet which is a HJC and even while this is a great helmet it is no where near in comfort. I think the M/L should work well for you sizing wise.
Most of the time i use the glasses by 100%. I only have +0.75 on my glasses, if i dont put my regular glasses on in the morning, somehow my eyes are fine and able to see good enough on the bike without any contact lenses. If i put my glasses on in the morning and then have to take them off for cycling i feel that my eyes struggle a bit because they adjusted already.
I’ve been looking at this helmet for months now and the only thing holding me back is the price tag for sure. Thank you for the solid review! It is difficult to find good video overviews like this. Can you share where your cycling glasses are from as well?
Glad you enjoyed it. I was in the same place as you. If i would have not needed a helmet quickly i would have went for the regular one and not the PNS edition to save some money. But i am still loving this helmet. It is so comfortable. The glasses are from a company called 100%. 🤜🤛
I find your videos very interesting: thank you! I'm coming back to the Sweet Protection Falconer Aero 2Vi Mips helmet... About the size? Are the brand recommendations correct? S/M: 53-56cm M/L: 56-59cm L/XL: 59-61cm Based on your experience, please could you give your opinion on this subject? Thank you
Thanks a lot. I think they are pretty on point. have a 59cm head and the M/L fits perfectly. I will be back home in 10 days so have to give it a proper measure if you like.
Been riding it in Mallorca for a bit now but wasnt crazy hot and felt well ventilated but guess when you are thinking 30+ degrees it could become a bit of a sauna haha.
@@klein-concept the tan version is for sale for 150€ atm, guess that's quit a nice offer. I am sweating a lot, so I am not sure how it works out. But I will go for it
Falconer looks great in non-wearing pictures but when worn it looks terrible. It's far too button-like and there is no way around it. You can tell that they can't find a good picture that doesn't make it look like a button mushroom. Shame given how gorgeous it looks on it's own.
Sorry, terrible idea , you take them off on a long ride and could fall out of your pocket at the back. Be much better if they had a sliding mechanism. But there again, I do think PAS is very overrated . There clothing is fashion of performance and longevity
Hey, thanks for the comment. Just wanted to add that this is not really a PAS helmet. It is by Sweet Protection and PAS only adapted some coloring of the product. But i also rode a 5 hour ride with the helmet while noticing 10km in, that i left the flaps on. So i rode over 4 hours with them in my backpocket without any problem.

@@erklng i agree. It s not the lightest but the most comfortable. Thats the main reason why i am riding with this one 😘
@@klein-concept yep it’s comfy! I have their Outrider as well, suits my head shape nicely. Enjoyed your review!
Love this helmet got three of them. Fit is really snug and the place for the glasses is spot on and secure. Aero or not aero in one package!

Nice helmet, thanks for the review. Would like to have seen the vent covers on and off when you modeled it.
Thank you for the tip. Yes still learning the youtube thing hehe. Might add a little short video showing this. 🤜🤛
Since you wear glasses do you ride in contact lenses or do you have prescription lenses in your bike shades? I wear prescription glasses myself and I haven't used contact lenses, so I'm little split between trying contacts and having cycling glasses with prescription inserts.
I only have -0.75 so i ride without glasses or contacts. But i think having soft day contacts might work best of you need them.

Hello. if I understood correctly, this is size L. what is the exact weight with the cover plates?
I will weigh it when i m back home next week 🤜🤛

@@revelationdetailers894hehe right. Glad you like it. It is expensive but after placing it on my head knew it was worth it.
Schönes Review. Danke!

What kind of sunglasses are you wearing? Are they prescription? I've been struggling to find some shield frames that would work with my prescription.
I wear the ones from 100% but without prescription as in my regular glasses i m only -0.75 to i still see good enough for riding the bike.
Hey, what kind of bike glasses do you wear as a person who wears normal glasses? Do you use contactlenses when riding?

Are the back vent covers removable as well??
No only the front ones. 🤙🤙🤙
@@klein-concept thanks!! That’s unfortunate was hoping both would remove for those really hot days haha..

looks nice, just sits a lil bit high due to its design
