Review on TORC T27B1 FWT RS L T27B Full Face Modular Helmet with Blinc Bluetooth: Ultimate Protection & Connectivity for Riders by Rashid Summers

Revainrating 4 out of 5

READ THIS - YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE CORRECT BLUETOOTH VERSION!

Lots of reports of people throwing away helmets because they can't get bluetooth to work between helmets. PEOPLE - AMAZON OCCASIONALLY SUPPLIES HELMETS WITH DIFFERENT BLUETOOTH VERSIONS. I ordered one in November and it's BT 3.0, then I ordered one in July and it came BT 2.0. THEY DON'T TALK TO EACH OTHER. They will both connect equally well to the device (phone etc.) but will not communicate with each other internally. So make sure you get 2 of a kind. My advice is DO NOT order from Amazon, go to the Torc Helms website and order direct. Or give them a call - they are very nice and helpful. And don't forget to ask them to specifically check if they ship the same ones since they stock their mix too! It took me 3 tries to get it right but now that I have two 3.0 helmets they work fine. My partner and I can listen to different music and intercom. As for the quality of the helmet - for a cheap helmet it's pretty good. everything works, looks solid and of course has the necessary safety ratings. The second helmet I finally got is the T-15 and it's a bit lighter than my T-27. (This is full-surface, not modular).

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
