Review on ๐Ÿ๏ธ LS2 Helmets Rebellion Motorcycle Half Helmet: Unparalleled Protection and Style by Calvin Booker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Superbly finished half helmet

I have had quite a few half helmets over the years and this is one of my favorite games along with my Bell Pit Boss. The profile is similar to the Pit Boss and while you can find slightly lower profile half helmets (Daytona) I think the quality and construction of the Rebellion is top notch. I like the Rebellion style more than Pit Boss so it's just a matter of personal taste - I think it looks great. The helmet falls a bit around the back of the head for extra protection, the vent helps with airflow and the quick release buckle is amazing. I also like the wide side straps, and on a recent ride I left the headphones (included) on to reduce wind noise. The radio could still be heard and although the temperature was in the 80's it was comfortable. Obviously a half helmet won't give you full face protection, but the Rebellion's construction and design seems to be the best half helmet in that regard. I read some reviews that said the sun visor causes distortion. but I have not found this to be the case at all. The visor is well thought out and sits just above the bridge of the nose. When he's gone, you don't even realize he's there. However, I have just ordered a clear visor from Revzilla for night riding and rain protection and will be using wraparound sunglasses for day riding. Dimensions: Be sure to check the LS2 size chart, it will fit. In comparison, I wear XL on Bell Pit Boss and Daytona, I ordered a large size for this helmet based on the size chart and it fits perfectly. A little tight at first, but after a few days of wearing it fits great. No headaches or pressure points. I received a rebellion with a flag image that's understated but looks great. Among other things this is my favorite half helmet and also on long journeys I will have it with me, I will probably wear my Shoei Neotec when driving on the highway for extra protection but this will be my helmet for back roads and days . when it is very hot.

Pros
  • Adjustable dual visor system Flip down sun visor can be fixed at ยฝ or fully protected
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
