HJC AC12 Helmet Fit
The AC-12 Carbon has an internal head shape on the long oval side of round. HJC is aiming for a neutral middle ground that will fit the most head shapes possible.
The helmet is comfortable for most round head shapes but it can feel slightly tight at the sides and cheeks, which means that it should fit most round oval head shapes also.
Matching your head shape to the way the HJC helmet fits is crucial for both comfort and safety
HJC AC12 Helmet Venting and Air Flow
The vents on the AC-12 Carbon helmet are accurate. The chin vent has a secure feel that gives the impression that the plastic won't break off in the owner's hand after short time.
The fittings on the HJC AC-12 Carbon helmet are excellent. The interior compliments the exterior of the helmet. Most helmet manufacturers seem to use lower quality air vents.
HJC AC12 Helmet Noise Levels
Noise levels are not too bad at higher speeds. Not as quiet as some less expansive helmets we have tried.
HJC AC12 Chin Strap
Classic "D" ring adjustment system and adequate padding for the chin strap. The strap itself feels slightly thinner than normal, and it is positioned very slightly back from what I'd consider to be the optimum location, although this doesn't seem to bother once it's fastened.
HJC claims that the eye port opening is larger than normal, but it actually seems a bit smaller than normal.
HJC also claims that the helmet has a "built in communication cavity speaker system".
The HJC AC-12 Carbon helmet meets DOT and Snell M2005 standards.
HJC AC12 Carbon Helmet Conclusion
The HJC AC12 carbon helmet looks great and the quality is excellent. Its one of the lightest helmets we have ever tested. The price offers great value for money too.
