Nolan NCOM helmets

Postby Supafrog » Wed Aug 04, 2010 9:32 am

Guys,

Does anyone actually use the NCOM headsets that are designed for the Nolan NCOM helmets?

Just after thoughts on these devices?

Yep ........ bluetooth from N95 Nokia to helmet. Tomtom GPS on the phone - voice directions via Ozzie Osborne (piss-funny).

You can have music from the phone playing and the GPS overrides for directions.

Also has a socket attached to the helmet speaker harness for a Nolan 3.5mm stereo input cable ( i.e. other MP3 device ).

With earplugs in, sound from the speakers is ok up to 100-120 kmh ( not concert quality ). It would probably be better, however the N102 suffers badly from
wind-noise.

You don't have the problem with MP3 player earplugs dislodging when you put the helmet on or while riding.

Not cheap - additional $400 on top of helmet price.

HTH. :kuda:

I wish I'd seen this before I bought the N Com. It has some good points but I got it in the N-42 helmet and it's defintely bloody noisy :(
