I love my Krios Pro three things I hate 1# My visor would make a squeaking noise in the wind. I made a 3D printed TPU spacer for the top mount position Fixed. 2# if the visor aluminum visor screws on the sides come loose its a PITA to get them back in the right spot. 3# my front upper pad mount is held in with double sided tape. After time in the heat the tape let loose. Had to Epoxy it permanently back in place.

New subscriber here. I recently purchased the Arai Tour X5 and did a review video on it but I thought I’d probably made the wrong decision and thought maybe I should have got one of these. I still keep looking at the Klim Krios Pro but having watched your video I’m a bit happier with my decision. My issue with the Arai is that my DJI Mic 2 literally touches my mouth. I think there maybe more room in this helmet to accommodate the mic. Great video buddy and very informative. Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻

@@theblackcountrybiker I've now also got the Mic 2 & mount it offset against the left cheekpad. It's not completely out of the way, you still know it's there, but it's not pressed against my mouth like when I'm wearing my Arai Chaser

@@TrooperTed thanks for that info buddy, that might sway me to sell my Arai and get the Klim. I really need to try one but no one near me has them in their shops so it would mean an online order and possible return it if it’s no better that the X5. 👍🏻

The Klim Krios Pro is a $800 helmet after taxes. You would expect perfection in all aspects and it's almost there BUT the visor will NOT stay where you place it. Open it up a few notches for extra air, first little dip or bump in the road and SLAM down it comes! I love everything about this helmet except the hinge plates. They are very cheaply made. It makes me wonder if anyone that actually rides tests them?? It is a $800 helmet WT Actual F?!

same it's the best helmet in my rotation right now, but the price is not worth it for what it is, and it's over 1k USD after tax imports where I live zzZzz

Im no very convinced about the magnetic lock holding in a serious crash. Did they teally test that?

Given its passed both DOT (America) and ECE 22.5 (Europe) testing, I have as much confidence in it as my double D ring helmets. Fid lock have a list of their buckle types on their site and the only one rated for motorcycle use is the HOOK 25, which has a break load 3-4 times higher then their other buckle types. Every crash is different and no system is bulletproof (e.g. Rory Skinner in BSB had his helmet come off in a crash only a couple weeks ago) but I've had no qualms about the system. I hope that helps David, and while I have you, can I ask how the audio on the video was for you?

Thanks!. And I think the audio was good!

You bought it for the weight savings but would have liked them to add a bunch of extra things to it?

@TrooperTed

What extra things? All my main complaints could be addressed and the weight gain would be what? A a couple dozen grams?

What’s it like noise wise and buffering

With the peak fitted, you'll definitely feel it/ hear it at motorway speeds but on the back roads it's absolutely fine. I'm sure it would be a better experience with the peak removed, but as I covered in the video, that's too fineky for me personally. Wind noise isn't terrible, but being a peaked adventure lid, you have to expect some noise. I never ride without good ear plugs & that helps massively

Its a bike shed not a studio, but I'll keep lighting in mind for future videos. I was wearing a mic and audio is coming through fine for me/everyone else?

@@TrooperTed without being as brash, I also noticed that the audio is pretty quiet and I had to adjust my computer audio and external speakers to 100% to hear anything. For the lighting, maybe setup a shop light behind the camera that shines on you and the product :). good videos, keep it up!

Thanks @@rileyportwood9106 for the feedback, scratching my head that you too had audio issues, as I set the mic gain and normalized audio levels in post as I normally do, checked with a couple friends and audio sounded Ok to them? Will also look into better lighting 👍
