I saw mention of this in another thread and felt it warranted some discussion. I am looking for a bluetooth for the helmet so I can listen to my music whilst cruizing on the two wheels. I really haven't found many good reviews of any of these kits. I have been looking into the Blinc M1 but again not many reviews.

So, who is using them? What models? and how does it work for you?

My husband and I use the scala rider set for bike to bike and satnav and phone. They can be removed from the helmet for charging and last about 5 hours. Really good

I have a Vega V-Tune full face with integrated bluetooth. It works well. My only complaint is it could stand to be a little louder for music. I can even answer calls and talk while cruising down the highway at 80. My wife says she can hear me perfectly.

I am gonna be watching this thread. I have been using ear buds for my ipod while riding and it gets old having to put them in and take them out, plus sometimes they come out of my ear...lol.... I have been wanting to use my iphone for the GPS, tunes and phone calls while riding.

I would have to say hands down the Scala Rider G4 Headset is the best out their.... i Had the O'Neal Triade Helmet for a few months but it stopped working on me when making calls but the mp3 still worked.... Someone recommended the Scala and it peaked my interest so i went online to do my research and saw this video

after watching the video i had to have one... I browsed around and found a pair for a really good price and i use it all the time now. I love the fact that you can attach it to any helmet and if it goes out on you you still have a helmet and can remove the headset and not have a bulk attached beside you that doesnt work..... and you can connect it to you PC and download updates as they come also.......

Retails For $450 For The Pair

I love the ONEAL TIRADE. I have no problem talking on the phone, playing the FM radio,using helmet to helmet intercom,listening to music, using GPS etc..... Through this helmet. I purchased it from a co-worker for $150. Some people have complained about talking at 80MPH. I usually just listen to music and concentrate on the road at that speed...not talk on the phone. So for me it works GREAT!

Anyone know the big difference between the Scala G4 and Q2? The only difference I see is the range for bike to bike radio. Oh yea and the price. About half the price. Most likely because the G4 in the new model.

Same here, I ride my bike to work alot (50 miles one way) and I always have voicemails when I stop. Would love to be able to deal with those calls while riding.

I have been doing some research on these sets and this G4 looks to be the best. I am wondering if I need the best or not? As far as I can tell, the Q2 appears to be the same as the G4 but doesnt have the range the G4 has. Right now the extra $70 for the extra .5 mile of range seems to be the way I am leaning. That's for the sets. Looks like they rake you for just a single headset.

Thanks wolf pack. At the price listed on the link you posted the decision is easy. I have yet to come across a price that good.

+1, also did a comparrison of the two on that site and it's the G4 hands down. Thanks WLF.

WLF are you using the wired mic? Could you take a pic of it on your helmet? Just wondering how carefull I will have to be with setting it down. Is the mic in the way?

 

[UrbanRage]

For the ones that do have a bluetotooth for their helmet, do you wear earplugs with it. When the full face is on the exhaust sounds resonates inside the helmet making it hard to hear. So I guess my question is, canyou still hear the music clearly at all speeds?
