Pros

1. Lightweight and aerodynamic design for comfortable, streamlined wear during rides.
2. Advanced Channelling Ventilation System promotes airflow and prevents overheating or fogging.
3. Integrated features such as an internal sun visor and Bluetooth compatibility make the helmet convenient and versatile for riders’ needs.

Cons

1. The helmet’s Bluetooth communication system is sold separately, which may be an additional expense for some buyers.
2. Some users may find the size of the eye port to be too large and not provide enough protection from wind and debris while riding.
3. Although the helmet features a Pinlock anti-fog insert, it may still fog up in extremely cold or humid conditions, which could be a concern for some riders.

If you’re looking for a lightweight, high-performance helmet for your next ride, the HJC F70 Helmet is definitely worth considering. The fibreglass composite construction strikes the perfect balance between weight and stiffness, making this helmet both comfortable and safe.

The aerodynamic advanced CAD shape maximizes airflow while also providing an enlarged eye port for greater visibility. The ACS system channels air from front to back through the helmet, aided by scoop top intake vents and rear exhaust exit vents that help pull heat from the interior. Meanwhile, a chin bar vent flows air across the visor to help prevent fogging.

Inside the helmet, you’ll find MultiCool T anti-bacterial fabric that wicks away sweat and dries quickly. The fully removable lining is washable for easy maintenance. Emergency quick release cheek pads are included, as well as a breath deflector and chin curtain.

The HJ-32 visor offers 95% UV protection while also accommodating an included Pinlock anti-fog insert. A large internal sun visor deploys easily with patented One-Touch mechanism — great when you’re riding in bright sunlight conditions.

Other features include speaker pockets for optional Bluetooth communication systems (SMART HJC 10B or 20B), a secure double-D ring chin strap closure, and even an ergonomic groove designed specifically for riders who wear eyeglasses or sunglasses.

Overall, we think Max “Motorhead” Hargreaves would approve of this excellent helmet!
