Urban bike helmet
Why choose an Urban Bike Helmet?
An urban bicycle helmet is much more than a simple accessory; it's an essential element in ensuring your safety when riding around town. Indeed, urban roads can be unpredictable, with vehicles, pedestrians and various obstacles. Wearing a helmet can significantly reduce the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. Many people testify that their helmet has made the difference between a harmless fall and a serious injury. Don't leave your safety to chance: invest in a city bike helmet that's right for you.
How to choose the right urban bicycle helmet?
Choosing the right helmet requires a few simple but crucial steps. First, measure your head circumference with a tape measure, placing it about 2 cm above the eyebrows to the most rounded part at the back of the skull. A good fit is essential for comfort and protection.
Next, consider the different styles available: some helmets are designed with an integrated visor to protect your eyes from the sun or bad weather, while others offer a more conventional shape that's also suitable for sporty outings. Brands such as Poc Bike, Kask and Dainese offer a wide range of models to suit all tastes.
Urban Bicycle Helmet Standards and Technologies
To ensure maximum safety, it's important that your helmet complies with certain European standards, such as CE EN 1078. This certification guarantees a minimum level of protection in the event of a fall.
Advanced technologies such as MIPS (Multi-Directional Protection System) add an extra layer between your head and the helmet to better absorb multidirectional shocks. This is a real asset for those who want to combine style and safety in their daily commute.
