Nice vid. There are a group of 8 of us that have been using the Cardo Packtalk since it's release and it has been a bit of a revolution. It's the first unit that does almost everything it says on the tin.
Best unit on the market currently. Have tried Sena and Interphone and Cardo wipes the floor with them for quality, battery life, ease of installation etc etc.I always use the sticky mount as think it looks neater. Literally just reinstalled my Bold on my new Tour X4 lid yesterday...
Hi Shaun. I have just watched you and Bruce do BruTime. I enjoyed it very much. I also have changed up from SENA 20S to Packtalk Bold (on order) following your presentations. Your product presentations have become very polished and your rides particularly with Andy are brilliant. Cheers, Alan from Australia (2018 R1200RT).
Enjoy the radio turning on even though you didn't tell it to. Seems to be a default option for it when it gets confused. Great bit of kit though. To adjust volume, adjust it when each item is working. Adjust the phone volume when the phone is on a call, music when music is playing etc
Sounds like you have the 'pre Bold' version like me. The voice command wasn't very good and what ever you say turns the radio on, which gets a bit frustrating as it takes a while to get to the point where it can be turned off. I had a quick Bold demo at this year's London Bike show, and found the Bold to be much better with voice commands. Interested to see how this goes.
Amazing how all reviews has something good to talk about the comm system. However, has anyone tried it with the new Sena just know how much Sena has improved as Cardo seems to be the new Benchmark.
Nice straight forward video..I've recently bought the Bold and found it easy to set up to my GS TFT screen with one problem..i can't receive or send phone calls. Recent and paired numerous times and even viewed the online video..but no joy. Everything else works fine. I've now just given up for the time being as it was stressing me out too much and i was seriously thinking of using a hammer on it.
I’ve had the PackTalk for a while now... a brilliant bit of kit. In my experience you’d be best to take out the small mic and put the boom mic on. It’s much better quality and alleviates a lot more wind noise.
Been considering getting an intercom for a while, looking at all the reviews the Cardo seems to be the one to get, so looking forward to your up coming videos and thoughts, especially as you had the Senna kit before, 👍
Unfortunately many helmet brands now use a dedicated com unit, like the current Shoei helmets (GT Air 2 and Neotec) and Schuberth (c4). I rather be free in deciding my com unit or not spending money on multiple com units. Sure you can use a sticky mount, but the clam doesn't fit anymore. Now I have to welcome Arai to the family...
Yes, I have that problem on my Neotec 2, because of the position of the flip joint and drop down sunvisor lever the Cardo ends up way back on the helmet. It's a shame as the Shoei is a neat install for Sena (I think) but the Cardo is a better comms device, certainly for bike to bike.
Hi! What would you suggest for a simple bluetooth unit just for phone calls and gps off the phone. I ride solo, so don't need these fancy units connecting several riders etc :)
Its the previous model to yours. That's the reason I didn't get the Air two, the lack of room to mount a coms unit, and I didn't fancy getting the inbuilt unit.
You referred a few times to "if you can't use the bracket". Why do you view the bracket as the default option and the sticker as the fallback? I've always done stickers as the preference and would only use the bracket if the surface wasn't suitable. The brackets add to the weight (marginally) but create more wind noise right next to your ear that just sticking it on. I also feel it's best to avoid shoving things between the layers of a helmet. This isn't a criticism. Just a genuine question as to why is the bracket is preferred?
I'd never considered that 👍 Mine intercoms have been stuck on and never had an issue so not something I'd thought of. P. S. My delayed trip to Cochem starts on Friday 😁
I found its sound is excellent, the "hey cardo,..." command is not good, many times the command is not recognised, I set the sensitivity on different positions but I had no much success, however, using "ok google" I had no issues whatsoever.
@@thelikeablerider8800 "ok google" works fine, even i can say play mixes (my playlist) however hey cardo has better commands, volume up or down, etc, unfortunately, i can't fully use its system. disappointed though
Hello. let me start be saying great vid keep up the good work. right i have the Cardo Packtalk Duo & i have managed to set up the radio ok but i cant get the music to work or the phone presets to work properly, when i say Hey Cardo Preset Dial it always calls the 1st person on my list of 4 people & it dont give me the option of who to call. Any ideas please ??? Many thanks Andy Farrar, Leeds.
Hi Thanks for your kind comment! Mine all works fine with the voice commands, although I don't bother with radio, I just listen to spotify. Because I connect the headset to my Garmin, incoming and out coming calls are control through my Sat Nav.
My unit won't clip in, I was intending to swap it between 2 helmets as well, it fits ok and snaps in on one helmet but not on the other one, can't figure out why? anyone else had issues getting the unit to snap into place? I'm using the clip mount on both helmets.Thanks.
I had the same! Clicks in fine with my Shoei helmets, but it's much harder to click in on some of my HJC's. Think some helmets that are possibly more curved, bending the housing slightly more stopping it from seating properly. Try bending the hosuing slightly to a straighter position, worked for me👍
I want to buy the flip up Shoei but will the packtalk fit as the new ones have that cut out for the Sena unit. I am presuming that you have had an indepth training course from Cardo ? Perhaps not just wondered if you knew the answer.
A lot of the manufacturers have now made it more difficult to mount a third party comms unit, and one of the reasons I didn't buy the Shoei GT Air 2. You still have options to mount it slightly further back, or to use the sticky mount. Difficult for me to say for certain without having the helmet in my hand.
Have you tried the slim? I like the profile but a seperate battery pack...not so sure. As an aside, your intro music is too damn catchy, just spent my two hour ride whistling it in my helmet 🤣🤣
all personal preference! you need to tuck them in so you can't feel them when you put on the helmet. Every helmet is different, so just place them where ever is best for you.
So I have a question. I want to move away from Senna because my 30K let me down in wet weather on a Pyrenees Tour. My buddy has a Street Glide CVO with a Harley Bluetooth/Mesh helmet. We have both found bluetooth comms to often break up and mesh has proved to be more reliable, except that is for me in the rain, when my 30K just failed repeatedly.. If I move over to Pack Talk bold will Pack Talk's mesh talk to the Harley Helmets Senna Mesh?
No unfortunately they wont speak to each other over Mesh, you'd have to pair over bluetooth to each other. Maybe you could convince your buddy to come over to Cardo✌😜
Hi. Would you recommend putting the cardio packtalk bold to the Shoei GT Air2? There is the issue of the raised plastic cover on the side of the helmet. Or would you recommend a different helmet. Ps I like the ratchet chin strap on the Shoei. Your advise is appreciated. Cheers
What’s your initial thoughts on this headset as I’m thinking of jumping from Sena? I know you said there would be more vids on this, but after a couple weeks, what’s your thoughts?
Its definitely better than the Sena, everything is working as it should, voice commands are very good, and the sound quality is great, even at higher speeds, that's where the Sena units struggled. There is a slight glitch with Cardos current firmware, as sometimes the radio turns itself on without me saying or doing anything, but I'm sure that will be sorted with an update.
Thanks for the reply Shaun, Packtalk it is then. I also like the waterproof element as I forget sometimes that the Sena is on the lid especially with the pants weather we have in the UK!
@@thelikeablerider8800 Hmmmm.... ok so the wired mic needs to be plugged into the H1, got it. I'm gonna figure something else out maybe. Maybe the RODE Wireless Pro or something..
@@thelikeablerider8800 Yes sir. Trying to document my first few rides on a new street bike, and just want to record the audio of what I'm saying about it.
Have you been able to pair your cardo packtalk bold to your BMW TFT screen ? I ask as I have a 2021 S1000R and am considering getting either the Bold or the limited black edition please can you let me know your thoughts on the cardo thanks
I haven't and probably won't tbh! My Garmin controls my music, and telephone calls etc so no real need to do it. If I would also connect to the bike, I'm sure it'll cause problems.
@@thelikeablerider8800 thanks for your reply unlike you I do not use a Garmin as such if I am just connecting 2 sources to the Cardo - iPhone and s1000r LIKE YOU WITH YOUR PHONE AND GARMIN this should be ok. Thank you again. Just one more point to ask would you recommend spending the additional on a Black over a Bold version ?
I neglected to ask as you are a sponsored individual by Cardo are you aware of any planned updates of the Cardo range - Packtalk etc. ? Please can you let me know thanks.
Unfortunately I haven't used the Black edition, only the Bold which I'm very happy with. BMW will always try to sell you their own brand of comms units, that apparently work better with the connectivity dash. The Cardo will pair with it, but you won't necessarily get the same technical support. Yes I'm sponsored the units, and as yet I've not been informed of and update to the units you're asking about.
My helmet doesnt have the hole to put the esrphones into. Ive place are the helmet but its pushing my my ear and temple which is not comfortable. And suggestions?
That's unfortunate! Yeah can he more difficult if your helmet doesn't accommodate them. Try a few other positions, they don't have to be positioned directly over your ears.
No I wouldn't recommend cutting into the helmet! If you can't find a good placement for the speakers with your current helmet, then I would recommend upgrading your helmet tbh.
I have the pac talk bold and a bmw navigation vi. I have connected my phone to channel 1 and the sat nav to channel 2 same as your vid. Is it ok to then pair the phone to the sat nav. This then shows up on the sat nav the number of the person calling or does this cause issues, only I noticed you didn’t connect your phone to your nav. Do you or anyone know thanks
I only know from my previous experience with my Sena unit, I didn't pair my phone to the sat nav, sometimes had issues like you said. Be interested to see if it works with the Cardo. Also depends in the order you switch everything on I've found.
I have it and it's shit imo. When you give it an order, like play music, or play radio, it NEVER understands you, and you have to fiddle with the buttons anyway. I recommend staying away from cardo.
Frankly, they can lose the radio. Total waste of time, and you've already mentioned yours comes on by itself lol. Bad mark against cardo for that. All you need is intercom and phone, although the new, ever stupid money raking, UK phone laws for driving have effectively made using even hands free systems illegal.
This is the best Bluetooth intercom in the market, you will be blown away :)
Hope so✌😃 all good thus far!
