Until today, we've only ever associated Cardo with motorcycle communication systems. Now, however, the brand includes fully integrated helmets, bringing all it has learned from making Bluetooth solutions for motorcyclists, including headsets and speakers, and pouring it into two high-tech lids, which represent the new Cardo Beyond range. The brand's biggest competitor, Sena, did this first. The question is, can Cardo do it better?
The flagship of the two-model lineup is the Beyond GTS, which features a carbon shell, brake light, active noise canceling ANC from the built-in speakers, a 2,000mAh battery, wireless charging, Pinlock 200, GTS padding, and front LEDs. It's jacked with technology.
The Carbon fiber composite shell comes in plenty of shell sizes to accommodate the vast majority of head sizes, and is ECE R22.06 and DOT homologated. It has an active brake light built into the back, which looks like the tachometer out of a Honda S2000, and I'd be delighted if it lit up in the same fashion. The most interesting feature about this shell, however, is that it has crash detection and a health monitoring system.
