The fit is different than last years C4 and is noticeably more round. Then, there’s also the inclusion of the Pinlock 120 insert and the improvement in anti-fogging that it brings.īut where it gains in some areas, for me, it takes a step backward in others. The liner is upgraded, now truly luxurious in its own right. The micromech buckle is also much more comfortable on my throat compared to the Neotec II (and, frankly, every other micromech buckle I’ve ever worn). It’s as plug and play as it gets, and is much simpler compared to its Shoei counterpart and its SENA SRL integration. Installation of the SENA SC1, for example, takes literally 15 seconds. That distinction remains with the Shoei Neotec II, which is interesting (if I’m honest) because the C4 Pro is, in many ways, a more refined helmet. I wasn’t among the detractors as I accepted the C4 for what it was: finely engineered, albeit big and bulky.ĭespite its improvements – and there are a few – I still can’t call it my modular favorite. Having heard the criticisms from many regarding the shortcomings of last year’s C4 (now called the “C4 Basic”, read my SCHUBERTH C4 review), SCHUBERTH came back with a new and improved version of what was, frankly, already a pretty good helmet. The C4 Pro: the return to form for this venerable German helmet brand. Integrated Electronics, a Revised Fit, & Numerous Improvements Make the Pro the C4 to Wear Note: SCHUBERTH and SENA provided the C4 Pro/SC1 respectively for the purposes of this review.
