In terms of features, the BTWIN clearly has the edge. It is the only helmet in the test with an integrated visor. Many spectacle wearers swear by it. The equipment package also includes (removable) ear pads. This may be a purchase criterion for frequent riders and commuters, especially in winter. Unfortunately, the workmanship is mediocre. The visor gets stuck when pushed, and one ear pad could no longer be attached during the test.
The helmet padding on the inside is also quite large. The ventilation openings are rather small and only allow a little air to reach the head; they can also be completely closed using a slider. The helmet is therefore quite warm due to the opulent padding and low air supply.
The helmet can be securely adjusted to the head using the dial. However, fine adjustment via the straps or the buckle is hardly possible.
An integrated LED rear light at the rear ensures good visibility. However, additional reflective elements have been omitted.
You have to pay around 110 euros for the BTWIN CBH 900 invest. In bench tests, it comes second to last in terms of both concussion risk and acceleration.
