I bought this Zeus 3000A model 3 months ago with confidence that it will serve its purpose until it's expiration date (after about 5 years, i think). But my confidence turned into disappointment just a week ago when its visor fell off. I examined my helmet and found out that the mechanism that locks the visor has become brittle and some parts of it fell off.
I've never dropped this helmet nor have I been to any accident wearing it, so, I believe there's no other reason for this other than poor quality issue... Further examination of the mechanism on the opposite side of my helmet showed some cracks on the mechanism that was made of plastic...probably cheap recycled plastic.....:rolleyes:
I won't put them back using epoxy because I believe it will compromise safety/reliability. Though there are available spare parts by order, my common sense asks me, do I have to buy spare parts for this sh*t every three months??

I could've doubted myself and thought that this could be an isolated case but my close friend whom I sold my first Zeus helmet, (same model with mine) is also experiencing a similar problem, the lock of the inner visor of his helmet doesn't work so it flips up by itself. :eek:

For the price of about 6000 pesos for each helmet, I now believe that I've been ripped off with this piece of junk! :Angry:

sometimes it is better to pay a "bit" more forthe quality brands...

well, to be fair sir, marami ring zeus owners na satisfied sa helmet nila..
baka unlucky lang kayu na madampot ang defective one..
pedeng masoli?

me mga issue din na nasisira ung flip up mechanism nya.

sa TS, baka pwede mong dalhin sa motoworld yung helmet mo sir. isama mo na din yung friend mo baka magawan nila ng paraan. i-PM mo na muna pala si sir Ryan, maayos naman syang kausap.

naku po balak ko pa naman sanang bumili nung Z-2000A Z3 Silver/White nila.:eek: wala po bang warranty yun sir:?

@TS saang shop mo po ba nabili ung both helmets?

mismong motoworld po ba?

kung sa mga shop lang sa tabi-tabi,
baka isa sa mga Factory SALE items ng Motoworld ung helmet na nabili nyo,

kada taon kasi may factory sale ang warehouse ng motoworld,
ang mga benta nilang item dun eh may mga defects.
maybe binili yan nung shop sa factory sale, then ibinenta nila sa shop nila

To TS, please bring your helmet to the shop you got it from and I'm sure they can help resolve your issues.

To everyone else, I know it is really inconvenient but a helmet is a mechanical product and there will always be a chance for technical problems to occur whether its a very cheap or very expensive helmet. From my long experience, it is not just the brand but rather, what matters more is the how the brand resolves issues.

Please understand that since our start, our goal is to give the best customer service that is why we are offering warranties, repairs, and spare parts when needed.

Thanks!!

nakuuuuuu.... Z3000A din helmet ko.... diba may 1 year warranty to??? Di ko tanda nung bumili ako motoworld eh.:?

nabasa ko lang some american based website (d ko na makita ung link). lifespan of helmet usually daw e 5yrs. please do not quote me on this.

IMO. helmet lalo na ang visors are made of plastic material, so it gets brittle in a span of time due to heat exposure (sun) and rain.

thou 5 yrs mahaba na yan para makaipon at makabili ulit ng panibagong zeus helmet!:D

sir, di naman lahat ng zeus helmet eh pangit ang quality...i've been buying zeus since 2005 and ung unang zeus helmet na binili ko, ginagamit ko pa din ngayon

sir, di naman lahat ng zeus helmet eh pangit ang quality...i've been buying zeus since 2005 and ung unang zeus helmet na binili ko, ginagamit ko pa din ngayon

diba sabi ng mga tambay TAPAT TAPAT LANG YAN.. nagkataon na ke ts natapat ang mei defect na zeus.. pero marame naman satisfied user ang zeus..

i've used several Zeus Helmets before...Z508W, Z2000, Z803, and a Z2000A...never had any problem with each helmet...

just follow the instruction of Sir Ryan...i'm sure there could be a solution to your problem...

sakin din po nasira 506w ata model nia...ung half face lng....

natanggal nmn skin ung kabitan ng harang s mukha(windshield b un?)

habang s byahe pa....

Just bought my 3rd Zeus 6 days ago, never had any problem with my 2 previous Zeus models. I'm still using them and i'm still very much satisfied with them. Never had any problem about the plastic parts turning brittle or what although i've worn my lids for countless short and long rides already. :)

i think yung 3000A model lang ang me issue. nakagamit na din ako ng 508W before at wala naman naging prob. and i still uses a motard type helmet ng zeus.

sorry for my previous post. un palang auto mechanism ng inner visor ang nagkaka problema. :)

Sir baka may warranty pa yan. Try mo ibalik sa shop.

Sir baka may warranty pa yan. Try mo ibalik sa shop.

bka naman old stock n nila or sa dami ng demands nila sa market kya ngkakalokoloko na gawa...

just like cars and bikes... minsan may lemon unit. kaya nga may warranty. bring it back to where ever you got it. if galing sa motoworld, i am sure ryan and his staff can help you.

madaling kausap si sir ryan kc iyung sakin naman sa givi box nagawa din paraan my warranty sya palit parts kaso dipende pag walang stock hintay lang nang susunod nila parating.
sa helmet ko naman happy parin ako at very gud pa naman hehehe .

pero tingin ko sa flip na helmet sa kahit anu brand nasisira iyan kaka gamit lagi sa index ko dati ganyan din lalo na sa china helmet sigurado sira agad wala pang warranty pero sa motorworld very gud na very gud ako hehehe subok ko na pag dating sa warranty.

thou 5 yrs mahaba na yan para makaipon at makabili ulit ng panibagong zeus helmet!:D

nabasa ko din ito life span ng helmet tapos iyung pag lagi nababaksak ang helmet ganun din nalimutan ko na kung ilan bagsak na helemt na hindi sinasadya kailangan bumili na ng bago

Are you sure about this, sir? You mean, Motoworld company is selling their defective safety gears instead of returning them to the manufacturers abroad or at least properly disposing them? --Wow...:rolleyes:.... We're talking about "safety" here and to my opinion there should never be a compromise between bargain price and defective items when you have a full knowledge that you're risking other people's safety, it's unethical to dispose defective products by selling them as bargains if you are sincere to your commitment to the "safety" of your customers, imo.

Anyway, I believe the real issue here is the quality of the materials that the Zeus company used on this product/model, it's not that the item is defective in the first place because it was working quite well when I first bought them. It could be that the mechanism on the sides was not made of durable material or the design of this particular model (ZS-3000A) itself has flaws... (I'd like to think that the small parts are actually made by their sub-contractors in China, hence, sub-standard!? hehe then shipped to Taiwan to be assembled)

By the way, please note that I'm talking about ZS-3000A model only. I have other friends who own other model of Zeus with no problem at all --maybe because of the difference in design, especially the non-modular types. So we can't compare them unless you have the same model as mine...then we can simply say that I was just one of the very few unlucky to have two defective helmets. :o :rolleyes:

Ganyan talaga minsan, may product defects.

Dalawa Zeus helmet ko pero ok naman. Yung isa 3years na gasgas pa lang ang tama. Baka naman yan yung mga bagong helmet ngayon madali na masira, baka tinipid na yung materials.:( Wag naman sana.

halos lahat ng brands. mapa mahal man o mura, nagkakaroon ng issues on some of their models at one time or another. this may be one of them. nagkaroon na ako dati ng high end helmets dati na pinabili ko pa sa states. yung dalawa may mga issues. problem is masyadong hassle na kung padadala ko pa sa states para paayos sa kanila.

tama yung sinabi ni sir ryan. lahat ng helmets na may mechanical parts, may chance na magkaproblema. mahal man o mura ang brand. mas importante is how the brand resolves it's problems. ang zeus, maganda ang track record nila when it comes to resolving issues especially since motoworld and distributor nila. inaalagaan talaga nila ang customers nila. yung mga helmets na mamahalin na nabili ko sa states, since malayo ang pinas sa US, nung nasira ang mechanism nya, wala na ako nagawa kundi itabi nalang ang helmet. nakakapanghinayang ang nagastos ko dun.

pwede naman pala dalhin sa store na binilhan eh.atleast ok ang customer service nila. :) yung gamit ko na zeus 805 ngaun for 6 months na wala namang nagiging problem. it serves its purpose well.

Please get to know us first before you start criticizing us. Over the years, we have been promoting motorcycle safety through the use of quality motorcycle accessories even though the market is still very limited.

About our "sale" helmets, these are helmets with cosmetic defects only (e.g. ugly paint/decal, broken vents). Shell/EPS/liner/chin strap are intact and therefore safe. This is a normal situation in any product as there can be many factors from production mistakes to improper handling. For helmets with safety issues (which is actually VERY rare), manufacturers will actually want them back.

Honestly speaking, we have had too many proposals to sell really cheap substandard products and counterfeit goods (also known as "class A") over the years and maybe we can make a fortune dealing in these. But we've worked very hard for our reputation so why risk it for some quick profit? At the end of the day, I think most people will agree that "sulit" is still better than "mura".

So like I mentioned earlier, please bring your helmet to the shop you purchased it from and let the staff know your situation so they find a solution for you. I know its inconvenient but there's no way we can find out about problems unless customers inform us. Maybe you are just venting your frustrations but do know that we are willing to help.

I'm sending you a pm to know about your problem first hand.

Once again, to our loyal customers, thanks for trusting our products and service. Thanks for your patience also when spare parts sometimes get delayed :)

..my Zues 508 was purchasd in dat factory sale..just a small scratch..

Its two years already nd never had any problems..

I also bought my Dad a solid silver Zeus full face helmet(Forgot which model) sa factory sale sa pasig, which I believe, is among those stuff having cosmetic defects, OK naman siya, it's been a year and a half since the time I bought it, but still, the helmet is still serving my Dad well, even the visors are still clear kahit na 'di masyado maselan sa helmet ang tatay ko hehehe.

@TS

Im wondering where did u buy ur helmet? Is it from motorworld?

Sir ryan is trying to address ur concern of course in motoworlds behalf. its obvious dat he is trying to help, nd there are some people in ur thread who cn prove how he hndles these things

Snding a message via pm may fasten it up...

Saying somethng u dnt really know wil just add damage..

Chow nd goodluck!

watchmode 3mos old zs 3000a user here..

i do attest to that sir, yung sa akin 508W after a year e defective na ung flip-up mechanism.

pati yung visor e hindi ko na din malinisan ng maayos kasi nga pati yung tornilyo hindi na matanggal.:rolleyes:

kaya eto ipon mode na lang para sa caberg....:)

sayang, ngayon ko lang nalaman my repair pala. ive stated the situation of my helmet nung dinala ko sa greenhills. hindi ata alam ng seller dun that youre extending a repair of the said product. pi na repair ko na lang sana.:)

@ Ryan: My apologies, I was just expressing my opinion, no intention to criticize.
As advised, I'll bring the helmets back to where I bought them, time permitting...I just need to remember where I put their official receipts. :o

Thanks.

naku wag naman sana ..kakautang ko lang sa trinoma ng kiro zs3000a.di pa nga nagagamit..pero iingatan ko na lang..lagi ko dadalhin ung box

I have a zeus modular helmet...been using it for 4 months...last month, nung iikot lang ako dito sa pasay para magstroll e biglang natanggal yung one side ng flip-up part at yung visor. nagulat ako kasi yung friend ko e 3 years na yung zeus helmet (same model din) di pa sira...balak kong isoli pero di ko na makita yung receipt.so i read the manual and examined the helmet...yun pala lumuwag lang yung screws sa gilid. i was able to "repair" it myself.didn't glue anything.it was easy.ngayon naging habit ko na higpitan every now and then yung screws sa gilid.kakaflip-up and flip-down, e luluwag talaga yung screws sa gilid.malamang kya sya ginawang accessible.i just use a 5-peso coin to do the job.btw bought mine at motoworld moa.

im sure motoworld will accomodate you...

sir ingat lang po sa pag higpit ng screws baka masobrahan mabasag visor........ base on experience po ito, hehehehehehe

I agree with Ryan.. I've been a follower of Motoworld since they opened their MOA branch.

I mostly use hi end brand helmet but I tried Zeus (ZS-609), I was surprised and very satisfied with its quality.

Ang tingin ko dyan sa issue sa specific model na yan ay baka pwede naman i consider as recall yan at pwedeng ipa warranty sa kanila.

tuwing pupunta ako ng MOA ay dumadaan ako sa motoworld maski wala akong bibilhin. parang window shopping lang.....

I'm sure that Ryan will settle this issue.

watchmode din ako..... planning to buy 3000A to replace my trusty 6 year old na yata zeus

..my Zues 508 was purchasd in dat factory sale..just a small scratch..

Its two years already nd never had any problems..

mee too!!!

2000A na maluwag ung vent un lang hehehe at 2years na rin sa akin
bale pang araw araw kong helmet

up for zeus up for siryan
