buying a caberg.Does anyone know how the sizes run in these?Ihave an hjc XL but it was a bit snug when new. was wondering if i should order xx for the caberg.
 
Caberg runs in centimeters....
I wear a large (59-60cm)... it was snug until it molded to my noggin'

Somewhere there's a sizing chart....

Here ya go!

I've had a Caberg since 2004, when they were called Jarow. IT IS THE BEST!!!! the internal sun visor alone is worth half the price. Anyway-- I wear an XXL. I also have a Nolan XXL, full face, which feels slightly loose. I bought my Jarow online using their measuring info. You will love it!
 
I bought my wife a Caberg Justissimo from helmettown.com. I called the phone number because I was concerned as she is hard to fit. I wasn't looking for a Caberg but the owner of the company, Jon, told me she'd be pleased and that he had a special as Caberg was not going to be imported into the US any more and he was selling out his stock on clearance. This was last month.
Jon said if we had any issues with fit etc we could ship the helmet back and exchange it on a different make etc. He was really good to work with. As it turns out, the helmet was an exact fit. She wears between an XXS and an XS and he told me the smaller Cabergs ran small so he sent an XS.
We paid approximately $99 for this great helmet.
 
I wear an XL in the HJC and an XL in the Caberg. IMHO the Caberg is just a weee bit tighter, but I think it fits better.

The only thing you have to be aware of, is that the chin guard is going to be right up there, much closer. If you use a mic, you may want to cut a little out of the foam to make a bit more room for the mic, otherwise your lips will be rubbing the mic all the time.
 
Hi,
I wear a Large Caberg which fits fine. I wore a med Shoei and a xl shulbert. I really like the Caberg. Fits fine, not too much noise and the sun shield is worth the price of admission. I wanted a Shoei flip front but no sun shield. Like ABS, adjustable wind screens, I want my sunshield.........
mitch
 
the hjc chin guard was a little too close for me so i might have some more shopping to do. But i really liked the internal visor in the caberg

Not sure if simply going up one size would be a good idea. HJC now has an internal sun visor as well.
 
ordered a nolan with an external sun visor.Read some reviews from a bike magazine that sounded good so i guess i'll give it a try.

Hope it works well for you. The problem I had with Nolan was the buckle hurt my LARGE adams apple, the buckle system on the Caberg is not as large and does not cause any pain in the neck. The other requirement for ME, was the sun visor needed to be able to be deployed with the chin bar in the upright postion, see avatar.
 
Yup, that buckle will take some gettin used to. Helmet seems to be well made though and fits good. Gonna give it the summer to prove itself.
 
WHAT!?! I might have considered the thing if it had speaker pockets :rolleyes: Back to a Scorpion I guess :cool:
