I'm pulling a 180... O'Neal Tirade Bluetooth Helmet Review...
I posted a couple of weeks ago how disappointed I was with the O'Neal Element Fastrack Bluetooth Helmet, but I'm giving them thumbs up for the Tirade...
I've rearched Bluetooth options and quite frankly, I don't want a huge microphone in my face (headset options) or a modular helmet (HJC with Chatterbox, Vemar Jiano or Nolan with extra kits). I think the idea of speakers mounted inside a full-face helmet and a hidden mic to be an obvious option... Well, O'Neal finally did it right.
The O'neal Tirade Bluetooth helmet has the speakers built into the helmet and they don't sound bad at all. The mic is hidden at the side front and is completely recessed into the padding of the helmet. It is pretty damn loud too...
This thing retails for $269 - still at about half the price of buying the other options out there...
I had no problems hearing a phone call and my iphone synced with zero issues. I rocked out to Mushroomhead and Powerman 5000 and really enjoyed the ride...
