SCHUBERTH M1 PRO REVIEW

THE ULTIMATE OPEN FACE

 

I didn’t know how good an open-face helmet could be until I pulled the M1 Pro onto my bonce.

I felt we had reached Peak Open-Face with the M1, which I reviewed and used extensively in 2018. It became my Always Helmet, rain or shine, and you can read what I thought about it here.

But then late last year, Schuberth Australia contacted me and said the new and much improved M1 Pro was out and would I like one to try.

A man cannot refuse such a thing – though I was sceptical as to how much better it could be than its predecessor.

At first glance, I noticed the exhaust vent at the rear was gone. I wondered how this would affect the massive airflow the earlier model had. I needn’t have wondered. The Pro seemed to be just as brilliantly ventilated as the old M1. I wore it all through the heatwave Eastern Australia was having over summer, and when it’s 45 degrees and you’re spending six or seven hours on the road, you’ll very quickly decide if your helmet would be better off as a planter for flowers.
