ARE EBIKE HELMETS DIFFERENT?
Ready to find an e bike helmet ? Before you cover your dome, cover your bases with these facts and features. It should provide you with just enough info to make purchasing a helmet that much easier.
1. Comfort
Expanded polystyrene foam and polycarbonate are the two materials used to make bicycle helmets. The main foam used for helmet liners has been EPS. The shell is made of polycarbonate, which is then fused to the EPS lining. Both materials often offer the necessary level of protection and are lightweight (more on safety shortly). Due to their constant need to be on the move, e-bike riders frequently select lightweight, portable helmets.
When purchasing a helmet, fit should also be taken into account in addition to weight. Dial fitting systems are common in contemporary helmets to provide ideal comfort and secure fit. This useful feature is a significant improvement over earlier helmets and is good for folks who use a size-in-between helmet. I'm curious about the size of your helmet. Online resources abound with advice on how to take your head circumference. Search for the answer on Google, and you'll find it!
2. Design
When you think about what makes a helmet the best helmet, design or style often comes to mind. Cyclists, for example, tend to choose function over fashion because it's more aerodynamic than looking cool (cycling helmets don't have shade, though!). The e-bike rider has a slightly different agenda than the casual cruiser or mountain bike rider.
That is to say, some mountain e bike helmets cover the full face, which may be ideal. Full-face helmets are designed to protect the face and chin. Some advanced full-face helmets actually have a removable chin component. Most of them are also designed with sunshades that can be flipped up or closed.
Helmets with features like LED lights, sun shields and anti-theft are worth the extra splurge, especially if you drive an e-bike every day.
3. Safety
Safety is the most important thing on any kind of bike, especially an electric bike because you can go faster. We know that E-bikes are more environmentally friendly, help cut down on your commute, and can even help you arrive at your destination without breaking a sweat. Each CAIRBULL helmet has passed the CPSC 1203 and CE EN 1078 tests.
When looking for the best helmet, consider weight, fit and thoughtful features such as an anti-theft security system that locks the helmet to the bike, rear lights that improve visibility, and a dial fitting system that fits perfectly.
With the above tips, you'll be cruising safely in no time!
