CARDO FREECOM 4+ vs RUROC ATLAS SHOCKWAVE | A comparison
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
I have now had the chance to use the Ruroc Shockwave as my main Bluetooth device while riding for a while and I thought it was now ok to give it a fair comparison to the Cardo Freecom 4+ that I've used for the passed year or so.
The question is - Is it better? Will I go back to Cardo?

I have the latest Cardo 4x. But with ruroc I prefer the shockwave. It’s clean it’s not hanging on the side of the helmet plus it’s louder. Easy to connect. My fiancé has the Cardo on Agv and we are able to connect to each other. Sounds good but with 1 sec delay.

Thank you for your time and comment. I agree with you, it just looks clean with the Shockwave. It’s cool that you are able to comment the two systems. And you are not using the Chain app? Ride safe out there.

With the ruroc can I listen anything from my iPhone? Like Ivoox podcast or radio?

Theoretically, yes. Since it only catches whatever audio source you’re using, and doesn’t have it’s own, it should be possible. I have tried different ones, but since it’s Bluetooth, you should be able to listen to your preferred audio. Thanks for watching b
A bit late to party but I have had the same Bluetooth connectivity issue with my packtalk. Turns out if you have another Bluetooth device paired the phone randomly dropped the connection to the packtalk and recruited.

Thank you for your time. I’ve basically completely switched to my Shockwave system, but the drop is annoying. No doubt. Both are still good products. Bluetooth itself is a very unreliable technology. Unfortunately after all these years.
Thank you for the review, very nice job!!

The latest edition of the Shockwave fits the Atlas 3.0 and 4.0. Same as the visors. Thanks for watching.

I also bought a 1st gen Ronin years ago. What a jallopy. Lasted the visor has a terrible seal and the audio is ok, the bass blows out. I used another helmet for years but recently bought a 4.0 carbon and a lot of the quality has improved. There’s still a feeling of leaving wanted. Little details here and there that don’t equate to a $600 helmet. It’s nice but I’d maybe wait till the 5.0 or 6.0 for them to get it all together before you buy one.
Great review thanks :)
hi, I wanted to ask you, is shockwawe an intercom or just a speaker that can only be connected to the phone?
@OakleefMoto

Hey. By itself it’s only for listening to music and taking calls. But if you pair it with the Chain app (by Ruroc) and others do too, you can use it as intercom.

Hur funkar det med öronproppar tror du? Jag har alltid proppar när jag kör och är lite orolig att de ska ta bort mycket av ljudet

Det ska inte vara några problem. Jag kör själv med en typ av proppar och har inga större problem att höra musiken. Förutom på motorväg, men det är pga hjälmen, inte ljudet. 🙂

I have both the shockwave 3.0 on my atlas reaper and the packtalk bold on my Scorpion helmet. The shockwave such bigtime. The buttons are way to small and no group connection. I am gonna install a cradle for the packtalk on my reaper and sell the shockwave. So if somebody is imtrested I only used it once 😂

I agree that the Shockwave has its downsides, and I also say that if you do group rides, it’s not for you. 🙂 I also agree that the buttons could be bigger. I still like the fact that it doesn’t clutter the helmet and that’s why I will keep using it. Sound is still good and is pretty much the same as my Cardo. Thanks for watching.
