Lumos Ultra Fly Pro - Road Bike Helmet | Lumos Firefly and Firefly Mini Compatible | Built-in Sunglasses Port | Custom-Made Fit System for Adult Men & Women | Bicycle Cycling Accessories

I have this helmet for almost one year. I am very happy with my purchase and the helmet is awesome. Its light to wear, very comfy e great adjustments to wear it safetly and comfy. The lights features are the best. I usually use it for night ride in a city with lot of cars (and reckless drivers, sadly). I have the confidence that drivers can see me from a safety distance and they are more willing to respect me during my ride (some drivers congrats me to have the helmet). Another issue that I like it is that the helmet is very cool to see at night with the lights on. Since I live in Brazil, there is no much helmet like this in the city, so my wife and I are stopped very often for people requesting information about the helmet. There was one issue with the remote, but I just followed the instructions in the Lumos page and I am receiving another bran new remote (Thanks Monique). In other words, the support is awesome.If you are considering to buy a helmet that meets, safety, comfort, cool looking (city or trail) I will suggest you to go on Lumos for sure. You will not be disappointed.

I was desperately in need of a new bike helmet mostly because the one I have used for years was looking a little long in the tooth and isn't really up to spec with the newest head protection science. I happened to find the Lumos helmet through a Facebook ad and further viewing of their Kickstarter posting. I don't financially support Kickstarter projects, mostly because getting a concept from design stage to broad manufacturing is a challenging and generally months long process, of which many great ideas on Kickstarter don't make it or take forever getting to market. But upon seeing it on Amazon, I knew it was real and they had gotten through the design and manufacturing hurdles.The helmet is basically indistinguishable from a conventional high end bicycle helmet, with the exception of the LEDs and turn signal control. The helmet arrived from Amazon well packaged with an outer shipping box and an inner retail box in bright orange. There was no frustration getting it out of the package, it just slid out on a little platform and it was basically ready to go.Adjusting the helmet to my head size was super easy. There is a dial at the back bottom of the helmet, twist it and you can shrink or enlarge the circumference of the helmet. You can even use it to tighten the helmet to your head, and then loosen it when taking the helmet off. It reminds me of high quality construction hard hats, in this respect. If you have ever used an adjustable hard hat, this particular sizing system will be quite familiar.I don't think I have a huge head, but the helmet is just about my head size with little extra slack in the adjuster. Like some others have commented, I would like to have the helmet be a little larger with a little more play in the adjustment mechanism, but this isn't preventing me from using the helmet or it being comfortable. I don't have my exact head size, so you'll just have to take my word for it.This helmet is a little heavier than my Bell Spectrum that this replaces. I also expect that to be normal considering that this helmet has integrated battery, LEDs and a Bluetooth module. The helmet, in spite of the extra weight, which again, isn't much, is well balanced, so you don't really notice that you have a bunch of LEDs at the rear of your head and some more at the front above your eyes.My helmet arrived with a nearly fully charged battery. One of the first things I did upon unboxing was to download the iPhone app and pair the helmet with the app. Read the included instructions. Pairing with my phone went smoothly, but you have one multi-function power button on the back of the helmet with with to turn it on, cycle between the flashing or always on modes and to put the helmet into Bluetooth pairing mode. It helps to have read the instructions and know how that button acts or how long to hold it down to activate the pairing mode.Once paired, the software indicated that the helmet was 95% charged. The turn signal switch that mounts on the bike was a different story. It didn't respond when I unpackaged it and had to immediately charge it for it to work with the helmet and register with the mobile app.With sufficient battery power and the turn signal switch charging, I used this opportunity to update the firmware since the app indicated that there was a firmware update. This process went very smoothly, although there is minimal graphical feedback in the app when a firmware update is being applied. The app basically indicates that a firmware update is needed, allows you to start the process with the press of a button and then the app shows you status information in text, but there are few if any progress bars. The firmware update took less than 5 minutes, and when done the app indicates that you are up-to-date.With the firmware update completed and the turn signal indicators charged, all worked well with the helmet.There is no doubt in my mind that you will be noticed by drivers and anyone else on the road with you. Whether you use the flashing mode or the solid mode, you will definitely be seen by others from a long way away. The turn signal will be great when sharing the road with drivers. I always feel unbalanced when using hand signals to indicate turns, but this keeps my hands on the handle bar, with means much greater control and stability.It will be interesting to know what the future has in store with this helmet since it has the ability to be firmware updated.I highly recommend this to any urban cyclist and night cyclist as one of the most comprehensive lights and helmets available.

I ride e-rideables, not bikes. As such I don't think the signal light thing is relevant. I can't mount it on my scooter's non-traditionally shaped handlebars. I tried the new firmware update that allows hand turning, but it doesn't work for me thus far. Only the left signal worked after setup, and It wouldn't turn off. I would probably fall and get my arm chopped off by a speeding bike messenger if I signaled like that in crazy New York.I do like the option to signal, but my main reason for getting this despite similar options was the design and visibility.I don't find it heavy. I have a small head - female, petite. It fits fine.My finger got a little caught in the vented part. I am not used to a non-solid helmet.It doesn't feel very high quality, but I think that's the case with many 'smart' things. When it's equal (smart and high quality), the products are much more expensive.

This helmet os for visibility, not illumination. You still need a good headlight to show the road ahead. But if you want to be seen from the front and the back, this helmet is awesome! Very bright, and the battery lasts a long time. Love it!

Bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Helm. Was ich nicht wusste als ich gekauft habe:+ App gibt bescheid wenn der Akkustand niedrig ist+ Da das Licht auf dem Kopf ist, sehen einen Autofahrer auch ueber geparkte Autos hinweg, zB and Kreuzungen+ Sieht sehr sportlich aus+ Heller als erwartet- Akku haelt nur etwa 2-3 Stunden wenn alle Lichter an sind

I've been using this for a month or so now... absolutely love it. Although I don't often use the turn signals - they come in really useful for a couple of particular turns on my commute - right hand turns where I need to sit in the centre of the road and want my turn intention to remain visible to passing cars. The front and read lights are eye catching - pedestrians notice me far more than they did - stepping back from the curb as they see me approach, and I can see people/cars noticing my head above the roofs of parked cars now even if they can't see my bike lights. Expensive? I thought so at first, but it's a very well made, well thought out product. I'd be very happy to buy another one immediately if I lost or damaged this one.

E' un casco da strada, su questo c'è poco da dire e ancora non ho potuto testare (per fortuna) le sue doti protettive. Le luci non sono particolarmente potenti, ma sono visibili grazie alla posizione elevata rispetto al solito. Sono un maniaco della sicurezza su due ruote e, sebbene monti già dei fari potenti, ho però notato che ora la gente per strada mi nota di più. Il bonus aggiunto delle frecce è il fiore all'occhiello del casco, usandole mi sono accorto che gli automobilisti tendono ad essere più accorti con me, mi danno la precedenza quando ce l'ho e rallentano nel caso io debba fare una svolta.Ricordate che ciò non vi esime dall'usare i tradizionali segnali a braccio, ma usati assieme alle frecce di svolta, è come stare su una moto.La segnalazione di frenata non è proprio eccellente, l'accelerometro della pulsantiera è troppo sensibile e basterà una buca o una svolta in velocità per attivarla; quindi confido in un aggiornamento software.L'app associata al casco è spartana e funzionale... quando si connette senza problemi. Talvolta sono costretto a ripetere l'accoppiamento del dispositivo per ottenere la lettura dei dati e non sempre questi sono consistenti: in più di un'occasione mi sono ritrovato con una prima lettura del 65% di batteria, poi a una seconda attivazione dell'app ero all'80%. Decisamente da migliorare.La batteria non è particolarmente capiente, ma va più che bene per un uso quotidiano.Ho letto da più parte che questi caschi smart sono "pesanti" (il Lumos pesa circa 500g) e possano dare problemi a lungo andare, soprattutto in certe posizioni, ma a mio avviso bisogna considerare che il Lumos è un casco da "pendolare" e quindi si suppone sia usato su delle biciclette da città nel cui utilizzo la postura è diversa rispetto a una bicicletta da strada o da una mountain bike. Di conseguenza, e nonostante io percorra una bella tratta per andare a lavoro, non ho mai avuto problemi con il peso del casco.Nel complesso è un ottimo prodotto con delle piccole sbavature migliorabili con degli aggiornamenti lato software. Il Lumos ha migliorato enormemente la mia sicurezza sulla strada e lo considero uno di quei prodotti che, anche se in piccolo, ti cambiano in meglio la vita.

Auffälliger Helm für mehr Sicherheit. Man wird deutlich besser wahrgenommen. Einzig die Akkulaufzeit könnte besser sein.

Esteticamente molto bello e funzionale!consiglitissino!!
