Two things that might be helpful to know: First, I fall exactly in between the two sizes according to my self-measurements. On the Sena website, they recommend getting the medium if you fall between the sizes. I think this is bad advice. My medium fits, bit only if I have the adjustment knob dialed all the way out to its furthest position, and even then, I could see wanting it a few millimeters bigger. So if in doubt, get the large size. You can use the dial to make it smaller. The other question I had was, how is the quality of the actual helmet itself? Is it like those $25 Chinese branded ones? In a word, NO. The helmet itself, not even talking about the electronics, is great. I have some of those Chinese branded ones and a couple of Bontrager helmets, and this one is better made, more comfortable, and with better straps than any helmet I have owned. It has none of the fussy little problems that cheaper helmets have, like straps that twist up, liners that come loose, etc. This helmet is a keeper; if the electronics turn out to not be my cup of tea, I'll still wear it just as a helmet. It's definitely high quality. It's about 100 grams heavier than my other helmets. Feels great on the head, not too heavy, and very comfortable. I saved that 100 grams by switching my seat post to carbon, which wasn't all that expensive. As others have mentioned, the sound quality for music is not there. It sounds like one of those old am transistor radios. So voice is quite clear, but you're not going to be immersed in audiophile bliss. And that might be ok... you're hopefully focusing on the road and not as much on the particulars of music. I intend to listen to podcasts and lectures, and for this application it will be great, easing the pain of those 4 and 5 hour rides. Music will be fine too, if you temper your expectations. If it's music you're familiar with, your mind can fill in the missing details. Finally, there's the electronics. My helmet says on the inside that it was made in 4/2019. It needed a firmware update before it could connect to my iPhone. The update is easy to install, but you'll need to install an app on your Windows machine. I did not see an OSX or Linux app while I was on the Sena website. (edit: a helpful commenter below says OSX version now available.) Once the firmware is updated, definitely get the app for your phone. It's a lot easier to play with the settings using the app than it is with arcane button presses given in the manual. However, if you like, you can forego the app... it isn't required to connect the helmet to your phone. In summary, I'm quite pleased. I don't think I'll look like a complete Fred wearing this, but if I do, so what? I get to not worry about missing important calls, and I can learn Italian while I ride. Great deal.

UPDATE: June 2021. Helmets now almost 2 years old and still work like new. They keep a battery charge like new. We get 5-6 hours from full charge. Less if we are talking alot, talking on iPhones, or listening to radio/music. Sound quality still reasonable considering small speakers and features all work as new. Range typically about 700 feet line-of-sight with no obstacles. In level campground with trees, tents, and RVs range is about 250 ft. Wife and I use these everytime we bike and she smiles as Roadies on fast bikes pass us yelling at each other in conversation. She quietly says "yup, so glad we got these". Great purchase if you bike in a group of two or more. Bought two Sena R1 helmets. One for me and one for my spouse. Overall experience so far is very positive. We do a lot of leisure cruising along asphalt and gravel trails around Washington D.C. area. These helmets change the way we bike. It can get crowded and we get split up. We need to communicate hazards and important information. We contend with pedestrians, electric scooters, and all manner of bikes. Being able to communicate via intercom was our main purpose for purchasing. It has worked perfectly for deconflicting among all these various obstacles and kept us informed of each other's location over a 1/4 mile away. Intercom quality is very good. No wind noise though I can hear spouse's bike changing gears and rattling over bumps in the background. Volume level of intercom is adjustable. Must be some great filtering hardware/software here. Setup, connection to iPhones, and connecting intercom functions all straightforward following instructions and YouTube videos. Everything worked perfectly on first try. Remembering various button push combinations to get different functions to work takes some practice. Once paired for intercom, helmets re-connect when turned on again. Helmet has numerous adjustments to get a good fit. Inside pads don't appear very adjustable. Helmet build quality is first rate. Helmet weight is not really a factor as we can't tell difference between these and our previous Bell biking helmets. We bought these mainly for intra-bike communication and these helmets are excellent for that purpose. Having iPhone and FM radio capabilities are a bonus. Current Amazon discount pricing on these makes them a no-brainer in our view if you need a smart helmet.

I am a bike commuter, and I have long struggled to find a way to stay safe while still staying connected. I've tried many combinations of helmets and single-ear bluetooth devices, wired headsets, etc. But none have worked all that well. But the Sena R1 is my dream come true. It's a comfortable helmet that lets me listen to podcasts and Google Maps directions without covering my ears. And, most importantly for me, it lets me make and receive phone calls hands-free. The sound quality isn't optimal for music -- the speakers are above the ears (leaving you better able to hear road sounds ) and heavy on the mids and highs, kind of like an old-school telephone. But this sound is perfect for voice calls and dialog-heavy podcasts -- words are easy to understand. Best of all, people tell me that when I make calls from this helmet (a phrase I never thought I would be writing), I am clearer than they've ever heard -- better even than handset calls. So, if your goal is to stay connected on the road, this helmet is amazing.
