Cardo Accessory Packtalk BOLD 2nd Helmet Kit

The Cardo Packtalk BOLD 2nd Helmet Kit is an official accessory package containing speakers and microphone components designed to equip an additional helmet with audio capability when paired with a Cardo Bluetooth Systems Packtalk BOLD main unit. This Bluetooth communication kit enables riders to move their Packtalk BOLD unit between helmets, equip a passenger helmet, or replace existing audio components. Unlike standalone communication systems, this kit requires a separately purchased Packtalk BOLD main unit to function.

Technical Specifications

Key Features

40mm JBL Premium Audio: Delivers Cardo’s signature high-fidelity sound with JBL speakers for clear music, navigation prompts, and intercom communication across all riding conditions.

Dual Microphone Options: Includes both boom microphone for open-face helmets and hybrid microphone for full-face helmets, ensuring optimal voice capture regardless of helmet style.

Plug-and-Play Compatibility: Designed specifically for Packtalk BOLD with pre-wired connectors that attach directly to the main unit without modification or adapters.

Use Case Scenarios

• Riders who own multiple helmets for different seasons or riding styles and want to move one Packtalk BOLD unit between them
• Equipping a passenger or pillion helmet to enable rider-passenger communication using a single shared Packtalk BOLD unit
• Replacing damaged or worn speakers and microphones on an existing Packtalk BOLD installation
• Setting up dedicated helmets for touring versus daily commuting while using the same communication system

Why Choose the Packtalk BOLD 2nd Helmet Kit?

• Official Cardo accessory ensures perfect compatibility with Packtalk BOLD’s DMC mesh and Bluetooth features
• JBL audio components maintain the premium sound quality Cardo systems are known for
• Complete installation hardware eliminates need to source third-party mounting solutions

Pros & Considerations

Pros:

• Premium 40mm JBL speakers deliver the same audio quality as the main Packtalk BOLD kit
• Includes both boom and hybrid microphone options for compatibility with all helmet types
• Complete mounting hardware package simplifies installation process

Considerations:

• Requires Packtalk BOLD main unit which is sold separately – this kit contains only the audio components, not the communication electronics
• Installation requires access to helmet speaker pockets or modification to accommodate speakers, which may void some helmet warranties

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this kit include the Packtalk BOLD main unit?

A: No, this is a 2nd helmet accessory kit containing only speakers and microphones. You must own or separately purchase a Packtalk BOLD main unit for this kit to function. The kit allows you to move your existing Packtalk BOLD between helmets or equip a passenger helmet.

Q: Is this compatible with other Cardo models like Packtalk Edge or Freecom?

A: No, this kit is specifically designed for the Packtalk BOLD and uses BOLD-specific connectors. It is not compatible with Packtalk Edge, Freecom, Spirit, or other Cardo models. Always purchase the 2nd helmet kit matching your specific Cardo model.

Q: What microphone options are included and which should I use?

A: The kit includes both a boom microphone and a hybrid microphone. Use the boom microphone for open-face or modular helmets where the mic arm extends near your mouth. Use the hybrid microphone for full-face helmets where it mounts inside the chin bar area for a cleaner look.

Q: Can I use this to communicate with a passenger on the same bike?

A: Yes, this is a common use case. Install this kit in the passenger helmet and connect it to the rider’s Packtalk BOLD main unit. The rider and passenger share the same communication channel, allowing conversation and shared audio without needing a second main unit.

Q: Will this kit work with any helmet brand?

A: The kit works with most helmet brands that have removable ear pads and speaker pockets. However, some helmets may require slight modification to accommodate the 40mm JBL speakers. Check that your helmet has at least 10mm depth in the ear pocket area for proper speaker fit and comfort.
