Will this work for a bicyclist? On a helmet for mountain biking?

The Senna unit clamps onto the thin outer shell of the motorcycle helmet by squeezing a small metal plate between the padding and the shell. You need a thin (3mm. or less), solid area on the helmet(very roughly) 2" X 2" to clamp to, which I'm not sure is available on bike helmets. A motorcycle helmet has a wind free pocket near the ears for the speakers as well. I don't think you'd be able to hear anything, even with finding a way to mount the speakers on your helmet strap as close to the ears as possible...

The challenge would be attaching it to your bike helmet - both the main unit and the speakers. As a serious cyclist I would question the wisdom of doing this but to each his/her own. For instance - even a mild crash could destroy the Sena not to mention possibly having the unit cause injury to the rider. Sorry - maybe not the answer you were looking for. A full face downhill style mtn. bike helmet is your best option.

I am a cyclist and I also ride a motorcycle with a full face helmet. I would not consider the SENA for a bicycle because of the wind noise. You couldn't hear or be heard!

Hi Gabriel, that already depends how you set it up on your helmet. It's a matter of placing it on the right position. -Vincent

Other than a downhill mtb full face helmet or a motocross helmet I'd say these are the next best thing but I've never hit my head riding a bicycle to be honest. I feel safe in this though for XC mtb. I've had concussions racing motocross

Sir, I'm not sure. It fits securely on my helmet which has a brim. The helmet your referring too has none but it does flare out a bit. If the thumb screw doesn't interfere with your head/neck, then I would say it would work nicely.... I would check with the manufacturer to see if it does work or perhaps they have another securing option. I hope I was able to answer your question.

I've been using this device for about 4 years and what I've discovered is walking around my semi in the wind it works great no noise can be heard on the other side because of the microphone cover however I do not believe it would work good on a bike because it does not hold on to your head very well for that kind of a condition. It is a bit bulky to fit under a helmet.on a bike you would be better off with an in ear piece rather than an over the ear piece.

No, but I've use it on a road bike and I can't see any reason why it won't work on a mountain bike. I too ride mountain bikes and it seems this would work. I think the strap that goes around the stem would keep it up right over bumpy trails.

I wouldn't recommend it in a warm-weather climate, as the neoprene will hold in even more heat around your face than the helmet would normally. It also depends somewhat on how snug your helmet fits going over your ears, as the straps going around the sides of your head rest over your ears and your helmet could pull them down too low as you slide it on. I tried it with an open-faced helmet and it was workable, but not easy.

Yes - I use mine on a road bike - its very light and not bulky (medium size), fits a phone, multitool, spare tube/repair kit. I'm very happy with it.

I used it on a road bike build & it has worked out just fine for me. Not sure about a mountain bike.

Would work but not with small items like keys, those could easily fall through the sides. I wouldn't use it on a mountain bike, unless you're riding on light trails.

Not sure I put mine on a mountain bike. I wish I stepped up a bit quality they are a pain to keep adjusted

There is a helmet clip but it is for military style gear. There is a headband which would work perfectly fine on a bicycle helmet. The head lamp is by far the best one I have used.

Yes it should work out perfect. I just put one on my wife's mountain bike. It's very adjustable.

It appears that it would fit on any bike helmet. The clearity is just not very clear I love the mirror great design just needs a better mirror.

I wish I had an answer for ya', but I used mine on my mtn bike and it worked okay. It fell off a time or two before I figured out how to install it (Note to self - sometimes you actually should read instructions :) If you have a mainstream road bike I suspect it'll work, but if you want to be certain you should probably try the manufacturer. Happy riding!

It should. There is a velcro "patch" (about 2x3 cm) which sticks securely to the inside of a helmet. The mirror bracket has its own similar patch. I wondered initially how well it would work but I have taken several rides and the mirror stays in place. The other thing I like is how far the mirror extends in front of the helmet which makes it easier to see at a glance.

yes this helmet could be used for biking on trails and casual slow biking. This is a good lightweight helmet.
