I ordered a viper rs v171 on the strength of wanting a flip style helmet but with the bluetooth being built in, as my previous helmet the aftermarket bluetooth speakers irritated my ears by not being sunk in enough. reviews online made this look decent quality but it arrived with one earpiece not working, and the build quality feels no better than my £30 g-mac, seems pretty naff for 170 quid. feels chinesium. especiallty the quality of the wiring. its not the earpiece, swapped left and right and the fault remains at the left.
Started a return but the seller is offering an rs v191 for no extra money. does anyone have a 191, is it any better?
tempted to just get a refund and get a better flip helmet, try to find one with bigger ear recesses and use my existing £15 chinese bluetooth which works well.
anyone any experience with viper helmets?

Lid preferences are down to the individual.
Maybe the newer model addresses the issue you mentioned.

Try it, if you don't like it then return it.
