LEXIN B4FM Motorcycle Bluetooth Headset, 10 Riders Helmet Bluetooth Intercom, Universal IP67 Communication Systems with Music Sharing, Noise Cancellation, FM Radio, Fit for Snowmobile, 2 Pack

While I was admittedly a tiny bit apprehensive to try these out vs. one of the “big brands,” the review video (on the product page) from the Canadian guy convinced me to give them a shot. So far, no regrets! They were pretty easy to install. My helmet doesn’t have dedicated speaker pockets (Icon Airmada) so it was a little tricky to find just the right spot for them so they don’t bother my ears, but this would have been the case with any Bluetooth communicator. My wife’s helmet, an Icon Airform, does have speaker pockets and they fit perfectly. Pairing them was pretty easy, though it did take us a few tries to get just the right timing on the button press to place them in pairing mode. Sound quality for music listening isn’t the absolute best, as many other reviewers have stated they are lacking in bass response. This is fine with me, because listening to music and riding motorcycles don’t go together, in my opinion- there are more important things that I should be listening for. Voice, however, comes through crystal clear, with excellent noise cancellation- no wind noise, no bike noise- I can’t ask for much more than that! We used these for the first time pretty much non-stop on a four hour ride. It was nice to have the ability to talk back and forth, my wife is a new rider and we both enjoyed being able to talk about what was coming up on the road ahead, when she needed a break, etcetera. We had plenty of battery, and the range is excellent. There were times when I could barely see her in my mirrors or a car would get between us or whatever and we never once lost signal. If you’re considering these, I must say that I had super good luck with the set I ordered. Everything was in good shape and worked perfectly. I have never tried any other brands or models, but the price on these was too good to pass up, especially for all the features they have. Well worth it, though I will be looking for a helmet with speaker pockets because it’s just a little snug without, but that has nothing to do with the product, just the helmet I have.

Update: since my review I’ve been very pleased with the customer service I’ve received. ————- Based in sound, speed and helmet type because we both have 2 completely different experiences with it. My helmet is Z1R Mid- the padding doesn’t push right against my ears which we think is why it makes a difference. It sounds great if you’re not driving, super loud and I can hear my husband clear. Pass 55mph the music sounds like as if you’re listening to the live version of whatever song you’re playing Pass 65mph you can hear the music, can’t really make out the words unless you know the lyrics. Ad once you hit 70-75mph the sound of the wind itself over powers the sound of everything, you know there’s music playing but the sound of the wind takes over. As far as the speaker goes, Once you pass 65 mph it’s really really hard to hear someone talk. The wind is too loud to make out the words. The pair sharing mic does work but you have to wait about 10-15 secs after pressing it to start talking. Sometimes after you ended the mic sharing option the music you had playing does not play again automatically which it should. And pressing play doesn’t make it play either. I’ve had to pull my phone out and hit play from there. Which defeats the purpose of Bluetooth in my opinion. Over all, my AirPods have better quality as far as sound goes. I think it’s because it cancels out some of the wind noice since it’s directly in your ear. The only plus side about these is that you can communicate with the other person, easier. Since sometimes Siri can’t hear me after 50mph The set up was super easy, you can adjust the placement of the speakers inside as many times as needed (my helmet does not have ear cutouts so the placement of the ears isn’t as specific as it is on my husband helmet making it harder to place them in the right spot but after a few tries we got it in the right place, this makes a significant difference in sound) , pairing both together was easy as well as pairing it to the phone. Came with 2 different sets of speakers. I assume one is for 1/2 helmets and the other for full face. Now that was for my helmet - (Z1R) For my husbands helmet - BELL mid his sounds much better and he can hear me clear as day. Even at 80mph and up no issues with his other than the music not playing automatically after the mic sharing. His helmet does press on his ears and is more noice cancelling than mines is. Which we think it’s why his had no issues with sound. His helmet had ear cutouts so it shows exactly where the ears go in the helmet making it easier to place the speakers in the right spot his helmet. The mic does sound a bit loud, but then again you’re on a bike right! We placed the actual Bluetooth device on the right for one helmet and on the left side for the other one. So it is modifiable from side to side depending on which is more comfortable. The buttons are relative hard to press with gloves on, but it gets easier to find the right button after a while. Make sure to not dubble press the volume up button and hold it instead Bcus it will call whomever you last called. Over all for me the experience is a 3.5/5 For my husband it’s a 5/5 Considering price and all, Giving it a 4/5 I would buy these again, and I do suggest them. Noting that your helmet type does play a big factor.

I'm sure everyones experience with these comms are different based on your specific helmet. This is my personal experience with the Arai DT-X. The installation is pretty straightforward once you understand what you're doing. I ordered the dual set. One for me and one for my wife. Pairing the 2 units together was a bit of a pain and there's definitely a learning curve to it. At least for me there was. Once the units are paired they connect for comms pretty easily. The sound quality for the comms is on par for the price of these. You really can't go wrong with it at $175 for the pair. I could hear my wife really well up to about 60mpg with my R3 cruising at 9k RPM. Above 60 mph and at higher RPM it became more difficult to hear her. And this is with half of the speaker completely and directly at my ear. (The other half of the speaker had to be placed under the padding due to the construction of my specific helmet). Switching between music and comms while riding with another rider is really confusing. After 2 days owning these units I have yet to figure it out. Even with reading the instructions multiple times. When riding solo and just listening to music without comms the sound is not near as good. You can hear the music pretty good up to around 40mph but past that you can't hear the music very well at all. And that's with all volumes at max level. All in all they are good units based on the price you're paying. My only 2 complaints are that I wish it was easier to switch between comms and music and that the speakers were louder.

Our stock Honda GL1800 headsets were loud, but had no noise-reduction for air blowing past the helmets and other wind turbulence that helmet mics will always pick up, which creates noise that the bike's audio system will mix with our voices through the intercom. Couple that with most non-current-year's GL1800 models' inability to allow two-way cell-phone conversations without expensive modifications and you'll have a system that works fairly well at low speeds (under 40 mph) but becomes unpleasant to intolerable as the speed increases. Even wearing custom-molded ear plugs the voice to wind-noise ratio is such that the voices coming through the earpieces are hard to understand, and can often become quite hard to understand above 50 mph as speeds and wind buffeting increase when approaching Interstate speed limits (65-70 mph). Enter the Lexin B4FM--as the wind rushes by you'll hear it, but NOT through the B4FM's speakers (one in each ear). And--different from the bike's intercom, you won't hear your own voice when you speak. You'll only hear your fellow passenger on the bike. Does wind buffeting sometimes make your co-rider hard to hear? Yes sometimes, but it's only because helmets themselves are often not well sealed around the bottom and back, where air can cause noise within the helmet due to vacuum from air rushing by. As nearly as I can tell little to none of this air-buffeting is audible through the helmet system. Though the mic may pick it up, the noise-filtration of the B4FM works effectively to eliminate most everything but the voice of your co-rider. A note about wearing ear plugs: We do so because to go without them is to be gradually deafened by the buffeting wind and other noise of riding at speed. They are highly recommended by experts, including ear specialists to protect your hearing from long exposure to high noise levels. That's the only reason we wear them. This requires that the helmet speakers be loud enough to reproduce voices intelligibly despite the ear plugs--and the Lexins do this pretty well. Do I wish they were just a little bit louder? Hmm. I'd have to say yes, I do--although I don't have to ask for a sentence or phrase to be repeated often, occasionally a repeat is needed at 65-70mph. NOTE: the picture I'm showing is the helmets before testing--I had just installed them, which brings me to what I consider is a winning issue--these were the quickest install of any I have ever performed over years of fitting aftermarket intercoms and headsets to helmets. I installed the first in 15 minutes, and the second in just under 10 minutes. If I hadn't been so careful in the effort, it could have taken less time. ACID TEST, BOTTOM LINE--we just finished an over 1400 mile round trip to the eastern mountains (from Illinois (the land of endless corn and soybeans) riding the interstate on flat land, and the curviest mountains we could find when we got into the mountains. We considered these a big success, much better overall than the stock GL1800 intercom system, with little to no noise transmitted through the earphone speakers, just our voices. Disclaimer: I didn't care about listening to music, just my partner, so I didn't bother trying the radio function. Also though we paired our phones to the devices, we received no calls while we were riding, so that function didn't get tested either. The mics can get turned away from the rider's mouth, so an improvement would be to implement a way to keep these properly oriented. The clamps that hold the devices to the helmets can pull loose, so a nylon or plastic set-screw that could hold them onto the helmets might be a way to prevent them from coming off while handling the helmets. We never noticed them loosening while riding, only now and then when handling or carrying the helmet. These things can be a pain to attach to the helmet, and while the included spring clips can be attached to hold the plastic clamps open for attaching, you'll want to remove them immediately afterward. They are unsightly and will get in the way if left attached to the clamps.

I was doing a ton of research on which helmet Bluetooth/intercom to get and of course the Sena ones kept coming up as the best and so no and so forth. I was ready to pull the trigger on SMH10-11 due to the it being reviewed for better sound quality/volume in the helmet, but just as I was about to I stumbled onto these in a review. I look them up and lots of reviews about this product are ex sena users whose devices broke and they opted for this cheaper option. I was sold and happily made the purchase to get two units for the price of one Sena. So about these: Setup: Took a sec in my first helmet, there aren't very clear directions about where to put the speakers or how to run them in the helmet so for my first helmet I didn't use any of the velcro/adhesive until I knew how it sounded and was sure I was right. I put the left one right behind the left ear pad, tried to run the wire behind the padding as much as I could up to over the head and put the right behind the right ear pad. The unit comes with both the boom and wired mic so you can choose whichever fits your helmet style. You can use either for a regular full face, but have to use the boom for open face/ modular ones. I choose the cable one since it was a regular full face, fan it up to right in front of my mouth and used some electrical tape to just hold the wire on the helmet so the mic flops around a bit but stays mostly in front of my mouth. After that pairing with my phone and use was easy. After installing it on the first helmet, the second was much easier. However, I will note that since the second helmet was brand new, and the first was about 12 years old, the second helmet had little cutouts behind the ear pads to specifically put speakers. It also allowed all the padding to move around so it was much easier to hide the wires completely behind the padding. This helmet was a modular helmet so it needed the boom mic. It was pretty straight forward. One other thing, not sure if this is due to manufacturer or age, but the first helmet the side where I needed to mount the unit wasn't flat so it makes it wobble a bit, the second unit it's perfectly flat so the unit sits snuggly on the side of the helmet Sound Quality: Once paired up I cranked the volume up standing in the living room to see how it sounded with my speaker placement. They got pretty loud but crackled at high volumes. There's not a lot of low end on these so any bass heavy songs will sound like a phone speaker kinda. I made a call and the person on the other end was ringing through loud and clear and they could hear me as well. Next I hopped on the bike and took it up to highway speeds. I noticed I could barely hear the music and definitely couldn't hear phone calls. However, people on the phone said they couldn't hear the bike or wind and I was crystal clear. I figured the situation might have been due to my speaker placement. I got back home, shifted the speakers around a bit and tried again. This time, much better audio quality all around. On the second helmet I haven't tried the road test as yet since it came in a bit later and it's winter now so it's harder to find comfortable days to go out. Intercom: Intercom setup was a little confusing at first, but I attribute that to me misunderstanding the directions. I believe the two units come paired already out the box and in trying to set them up I unpaired them. I then re-paired them following the directions in the book and tested them out. Initially the second unit the sound wasn't coming through to the first, but it was because we were testing in the house and the second person wasn't speaking loud enough to get over the noise cancellation of the mic. Once they started speaking louder as you would on the bike, everything came through loud and clear. I haven't been able to try the pairing on the bike because as stated above it's still winter and is hard to find good days to ride. Conclusion: So far I'm definitely happy with this purchase. The price for two units was cheaper than a single Sena. The sound quality seems to be pretty awesome so far. The setup was pretty easy, the Bluetooth is easy to operate the voice commands. The buttons are raised and are distinct enough to be easily identified and pressed. I'm excited to test this on longer rides with both units on. P.S. I also have a newer helmet coming in and I'll transfer the unit from my first helmet to this one and see if It improves the audio quality more.

⭐⭐⭐ (3 stars) I really wanted to like these because the price is attractive and the build quality and sound are actually pretty decent. Initial setup seemed fine, but real-world use was a different story. We bought these specifically to use the intercom feature between two riders, and that’s where they became frustrating. Many rides started with 10–15 minutes of trying to get them to connect properly, even when following the manual step-by-step. Sometimes they would connect quickly, other times they wouldn’t, or would drop and need to be re-paired. The inconsistency is the main issue. When they worked, they were fine — but getting them to work reliably every time was the problem. If you’re mainly using these for music or occasional use, they may be perfectly acceptable. But if you plan to use the intercom regularly between riders, be aware that the connection process can be unpredictable and frustrating. We ended up switching to another system and had immediate, consistent connections with much less effort.

Seems pretty decent so far. Bought these to replace my old Scala rider headsets, as they’re much cheaper in price, and we mostly wanted to listen to music and navigation while riding. Battery life has been great. Says it takes 2.5 hrs to fully charge, but I usually plug it in on Sunday night, and use it all week back and forth to work on a single charge. I’ve never gotten below 50%, even after some long weekend rides. Sound of the speakers is plenty fine. Not a lot of bass, but they’re small speakers so that’s expected. My only complaint here is that my scala units raised and lowered the volume automatically with speed, these don’t do that. Again, more money generally gives you more features, so I can live with it. Using the clamp-on style clip, as the shape of the stick-on style made them too flimsy for me to trust. Depends on the curve of your helmet, but for me it didn’t match, so the double sided tape only had a very thin area to stick at the top and bottom edges, leaving the middle unstuck. No big deal, but I don’t remove it from my helmet to charge or anything. My scala I used to take off when I’d park my bike and leave my helmet chained to it for long periods so it wouldn’t get stolen. This unit’s plastic clip seems kind of flimsy, so I try not to pull it on and off very often. Bluetooth sync’s no problem to three different devices I’ve connected to. Have only tested the intercom across the house, but did notice it was staticky after pairing the units. May just be a line of sight thing, so I can’t really knock it until I test further on the road. Overall it gets the job done, and for the pair, it was still cheaper than purchasing one of the more namebrand units. Over 6 month review- Still very happy with these headsets. The girlfriend and I are able to listen to whatever we want independently, but with the quick button tap and wait for the beep, and we can chat. Automatically ends the chat after a short period of silence, and back to music/nav you go. Sound is decent and plenty loud. Battery life has been outstanding! I ride about a half hour each way to work everyday and only charge it about once every two weeks. Good choice and very affordable compared to the top brands in this market.

I got these to wear while I passenger on my husband's motorcycle. Finally being able communicate is amazing. The intercoms worked great and we never heard one bit of wind noise. Our favorite feature is the ability to connect more, so we will purchase additional ones as gifts for others we ride with. However, there are a couple things buyers should be aware of that we learned within our first 5 rides with them, over a 10 day vacation: 1. Do NOT hit buttons on accident. My husband commonly hit random buttons as he put his helmet on and off at stops. The unit gets confused. It stays on but stops working. The only way to reset them is to turn off and wait a few minutes before turning back on. After he started being more careful, we stopped having the issue. 2. It's weird that the power button does not turn them on and off, you must hold down 2 buttons for on and off. This is really just a reiteration of #1.... because randomly hitting jusy the power button just messes things up. but read the manual and know what buttons to push and when. 3. We tried to connect bluetooth for music twice and gave up. I'm not convinced yet that there's an issue, we were anxious to get on the road with the intercoms. During our attempts for connnect his iPhone we got the Bluetooth to connect to and he could play music. but once we connected for intercom the music stopped playing in his helmet and we never got it to play in mine. When we rode off without music but keeping phone connected he started hearing a beep every 30 seconds or so. This was super annoying and he had to turn his phones bluetooth off. Once again, I'm not positive this isn't user error... but we did follow the instructions in the manual twice without succes. 4. There are two mics with each unit and a clear winner, the mic that sticks directly to the helmet. The one that looks like a classic Britney Spears accessory does not stay bent perfectly still. When it moves and props up against the helmet the vibrations of the bike make a constant annoying radio static noise for the other listener. 5. The wind noise cancellation is AMAZING! Open visors, going down the highway at 70+mph or winding through curves and there was NEVER a distortion from wind. 6. We fully charged them before and after our first ride. Then we tested them to see how long they would last. Over the next week we rode at least 5 times, each for about 2 or 3 hours, keeping them on at stops. The battery said 100% each time we put them on. After at least 10 hours of intercom only there still seems to be plenty of battery life in them. We haven't tested connecting to a 3rd rider yet but are excited to test that functionality next spring.

My friend and I have had these for a few years now and they're still working perfectly, i commute almost every day and sometimes in heavy rain too, the sound quality isnt amazing but good enough. Sometimes getting them to pair up can be annoying but thats bluetooth in a nutshell anyway, I dont really see the point in buying a more expensive headset this works well for weekend rides with friends and gps directions and music too.

Product arrived in three days with express shipping. Product was well packaged with a nice presentation. The instructions were well laid out and in a proper phamphlet not poorly translated onto something the size of a matchbook. The company provides a link to a Youtube video to help with installation, which is moderately helpful. A read of the subsequent comments led me to a link for a firmware update for the devices. (I'm a nerd so this wasnt an issue, but for someone not at least a little comfortable with windows computers this could be a little daunting.) Otherwise the attachment of the device to the helmet and affixing the speakers and mic inside the helmet was easy. Operation of the unit for simplistic things like pairing to a phone for music and then pairing the two units together for intercom use was straighforward and the included instructions do a good job. I am not using these for rider to rider use so I cant comment on range. A few minutes after installation my daughter and I had our individual phones with separate music playing and connected to the devices and were able to simply tap the intercom button, wait a few seconds and then have an intercom conversation with no problem...(you press the button, wait a few seconds then speak.... Its like "hello....?Hello?.... Oh there you are!").. another press of the intercom button and the conversation ended with the music automatically resuming. I havent tried the answering or making calls function yet. But judging from the quality of the intercom conversation I think it should be fine for conversation quality as long as it connects. The sound of the music was acceptable, with little to no bass, but adequate volume for my use. (40 + year old ears).. I could hear AC/DC "Shoot to Thrill" at 100km/h sans windshield, without issue! After a two plus hour trip the units still had 100% battery according to the voice power on prompt. Overall I'm quite happy with these on my initial use of them. Especially given the price point. *Update*... Receiving phone calls works great. Tap the power button to accept the call... Tap again to end.... High speed music listening with earplugs in cancels the wind but I still hear the music. A++.

La intercomunicación con otro conductor, muy fluida sin interferencia, otra manera de conducir moto

J'ai acheté 2 kit complet de marque lexin pour la motoneige. Un premier kit B4FM et l'autre G16. Les 2 différents modèles peuvent se coupler ensemble sans problème. Les micros sont identique dans les 2 modèles mais les écouteurs (protecteurs en mousse) sont de qualité supérieure dans le G16. La lumière du G16 est particulièrement pratique. Le couplage se fait facilement une fois qu'on a bien compris le principe. Lire attentivement les instructions et se pratiquer avant votre "ride"! J'ai essayé jusqu'à 3 personnes et cela fonctionne bien. Il est important de respecter l'ordre de couplage et de rester dans cet ordre pendant la randonnée dans la mesure du possible. Puisque les appareils marche "en chaine" si le premier accouplé se retrouve à l'arrière du peloton, la communication avec le deuxième accouplé (et donc tout le reste du groupe) sera coupée. La distance pour communiquer entre 2 différents appareils accouplés est d'environ 300/600 pieds et est affecté à la baisse par les maisons et collines. Dans la majorité du temps cela est suffisant. C'est une technologie bluetooth, ce n'est pas un radio de type walkie-talkie. Donc vous comprendrez que si vous avez 3 appareils accouplés, la distance entre le premier et le troisième appareil (le deuxième appareil relais l'information du premier vers le troisième) peut être d'environ 600 pieds. Si 4 appareils 900 pieds etc... (distance peut être plus grande, je suis allé pessimiste dans de mauvaises conditions) Lorsque 2 personnes connectées ensemble s'éloigne trop, la communication se coupe. Par exemple si le #1 s'éloigne trop de #2, alors #1 perdra la communication avec #2 et #3. L'appareil #2 et #3 peuvent continuer à communiquer ensemble. Une fois #1 revenu à une distance raisonnable de #2, alors l'appareil rétablie la connexion automatiquement avec ses 2 confrères. Il faut toujours garder en tête que les appareils marchent en chaîne et chaque appareil relaie l'information à l'autre. La qualité sonore est bonne. Dépendamment l'emplacement du micro dans votre casque, la qualité diffère. Pour ce qui est du sons lorsqu'on écoute de la musique, la qualité est moyenne mais ça fait le travail. On ne peut pas parler aux autres en même temps de partager la musique. C'est un choix. Tu partages aux autres ou tu leur parles. De ce que j'ai testé, c'est 2 modes différents. On entend peu les bruits des autres motoneiges. Pour ce qui est du G16 (je n'ai pas essayé avec le B4FM) j'ai réussi à être connecté avec 2 autres personnes et d'être connecté en même temps à mon cellulaire. Cela fonctionne très bien. Lorsqu'on reçoit un appel et que je suis en communication avec mes partenaires, j'entends seulement un "bip" d'environ 1 seconde. Rien d'autre par la suite... Il faut donc être attentif sinon on manque l'appel. Il faut appuyer sur le bouton "power" 1 fois et la communication coupe avec les partenaires pour répondre l'appel. Le répondeur automatique des appels après 12 secondes est inutile puisque ma boite vocale de téléphone embarque avant que l'appareil réponde automatiquement. Finalement pour ce qui est de la résistance au froid, je suis très surpris. Très efficace au froid. Nous avons fait une "ride" de 4 heures à -29°C sur le thermomètre et tous les appareils ont bien fonctionnés.

The Lexin B4FM is reminiscent of another budget bike intercom that I bought a few years back... but in practice, the Lexin ticks boxes the former didn't. The wind noise suppressing microphone was the best surprise here. Receiving a test phone call from my wife, proved clear & background noise free. Even with our open-face helmet's visors open! The only negatives to the call were, the speaker's sound is thin...(as in, no bass!) & could have been a bit louder. In the kit, they've provided 6mm ear speaker spacers, which pads them closer to your ears(if you have the room). This fixes the air gap & helps with sound loss. Even at max volume, the speakers don't distort, but again not the best sound. Also, I'm not a fan of the FM radio & its channel scanning. *** edit! I've sourced the new version ear speakers...update shortly *** The kit includes a clip which attaches the intercom unit to the outside of the helmet. For me, it worked nice & firm. Also really sticky velcro pads, which adhere the mic stem & ear speakers to the helmet's insides, for supposedly easily removal... they've come unstuck pretty quickly... so clean surfaces must be found, for a good permanent assembly. The battery seems too good to be true! I'll have to try a massive ride one day, to prove its longevity, cause we've not seen them go flat yet! All in all, I'm happy with my purchase & my wife/pillion, who totally hates bad sound equipment & was the biggest challenge, has also accepted them. 3.5 Stars - Mostly Recommended.
