Scooter helmet
The scooter helmet, essential equipment
A scooter helmet is essential to protect your head in the event of an accident or fall. It's the only truly effective accessory for protecting your face and head, so take the time to choose wisely. The scooter helmet is also the pieceof scooter equipment you'll be spending the most time with. Whether it's on your head, hanging from your arm or in your case, it's with you wherever you go.
What should you look for in a scooter helmet?
You buy a new scooter helmet, and it has to be adapted to your riding style and morphology. Here's what you need to consider before buying.
Your size
Your scooter helmet must be adapted to your head size. A helmet that's too small will quickly become uncomfortable and compress your skull. This is particularly unpleasant on long journeys. A helmet that's too big won't protect you in the event of a fall, and can quickly become uncomfortable if the wind rushes in.
Weight
When you're riding a lot, the weight of the helmet on your neck is important. Some materials are lighter than others, for a lower final weight.
Comfort
As we've said, a scooter helmet will be with you every step of the way. From home to work, on your longest journeys - it doesn't matter. It's essential that it's comfortable and that you feel good inside. If you wear glasses, you'll want a helmet with cut-outs on the inside to make it easier to insert the temples.
Protection
Each type of helmet has its own specific characteristics in terms of protection. It's up to you to choose according to your needs.
Style
Helmets also reflect your personality. They come in all shapes and colors. The choice is yours!
Scooter helmet safety
When you're a scooterist, safety is essential. So when it comes to choosing your scooter helmet, there are a few things you should bear in mind and make sure you choose the one that's right for you. Before you buy your helmet, make sure it's approved. All our motorcycle and scooter helmets are approved.
What material should you choose for your scooter helmet?
-
Thermoplastic: inexpensive, entry-level.
-
Fiberglass or composite: lighter, good value for money.
-
Carbon fiber: lightest, strongest, top-of-the-range, high quality.
The clamping system
Closing your helmet is important.
-
Micrometric buckle: practical and fast, but wears out quickly.
-
Double-D buckle: secure, resistant, but more complicated at first.
