Hi Handy1!I have always wanted a higher end helmet over The HJC that I have been using over the years. I have had many models of the HJC brand. I have been drawn to the Schubert C3 for sometime, but could never bring myself to spend that much for a quality helmet. I have found some good price reductions on there helmets. I lean toward the C3 pro and have founds some at a somewhat reasonable price. For my wife ,I can only find the C4 pro in a women’s helmet. Not that she has ever had a helmet made for a women,but thought I would go that way this time. The reviews for a touring helmet lean to the C3 pro over the C4 pro. I have a C3 pro and aC4 pro in a shopping cart waiting for me to hit the buy button. Should I buy both helmets in a C4 pro ? Keep searching for a women’s C3 pro or hit the buy button on what I have.
The Schuberths do not fit me, so I've been through HJC, Shoei Multitec and Neotec (1 and 2).
There is a good review about the new Schuberth C5 and some history on the C3 and C4 models at Motolegends (UK shop): Schuberth C5 helmet review
Good luck with your decision.
