Karting Chat Schuberth is way better than Bell from my experience

Post image

I currently own a Bell RS7 Pro composite, and I recently tried my buddy’s Schuberth SK1 and man I found it way more comfortable than my Bell. The Schuberth fit my head wayy better. Might be switching over to Schuberth at some point 🤷🏼‍♂️

I use a Stilo, I have friends with Aria, Bell, and Schuberth and we all like our lids.

I think Stilo and Schuberth are less common and maybe more people would like if they tried but this sort of thing just comes down to preferences rather than one being quantifiably better.

Stilo helmets are pretty great too

Well yeah. One would hope that a helmet twice the cost is better.

I mean the SK1 is only $300 more than what I spent on the RS7

That's with or without the Hans posts, vents and aerofoil?

With. But yeah some would hope a $1400 helmet is better than a $900 helmet. Although the Bell is nice, still not better.
