helmet

I am colour blind and going to buy a helmet, it says the colour is Black, Blue, purple The helmet looks black and blue to me, which bit is purple?

My spesh helmet has inexplicably bust its internal strap. Have two other helmets in other places but need a quick replacement. Anyone got any experience of any of Planet X's road/general commuting style helmets? Am prepared to take a risk on sizing - modern helmets adjust a lot, I have a fair...

Hi there I have two spare helmets - does anyone know if these can be donated anywhere? I phoned a community bike place in Glasgow but, as they are a safety item, they don't take them, which is understandable. Any other ideas? I thought maybe a charity shop?

Just looking for one for Gti Junior who rides around town a lot. Seems to me there is: Overade Plixi and Morpher Folding - both look a bit naff. Headkayse One - looks great but not yet actually in production. Have I missed any?

New catlike whisper helmet arrived today, does anyone know what these four little adhesive dots are for? They're rough to the touch.

I'd like to buy a new helmet - I want a nice fit and for it to be as aerodynamic as possible but I'm not prepared to pay an astronomical amount. I have this helmet (Bell Stratus) already and its the best fit I've ever had in a helmet and it offers great ventilation...

Gotta get me one of these if I ever take up trialling.

So i was wondering quite a few people have helmet cameras/bicycle cameras. Are they really worth it as: 1. What's the point of them other than catching bad drivers? 2. What's the difference between them and just attaching your mobile phone so it can record through it's camera 3. If you were to...

Can anyone recommend good helmet lights for the following helmet, preferably ones that are easy to fit! I bought some from Aldi but they aren’t that good. https://www.evanscycles.com/bell-stratus-helmet-EV290993 Thanks J

The helmet debate thread has been on moderation for over a year now is there any chance it can/will be taken back off again? The thread was mercilessly trolled by a couple of individuals who, having achieved their aim of effectively getting the thread locked, have barely posted in there since...

From another thread: I've never heard this before, and I don't believe it is true. So, an non-scientific survey. Please, only vote if you wear a helmet regularly though not necessarily for every ride. For the record, I often wear a helmet, I learned to ride under compulsory helmet laws and...

Bell introduced the modern polystyrene cycling helmet in 1975 (before then bike racers, rugby players, aeronauts and mountaineers wore protective leather caps). First constructed to protect the skull by crushing on impact, there has been little aesthetic or material innovation in their design...

Hi there Some of the felt has come away on the inside of my helmet. I think the velcro got stuck to another velcro thingy and they have gone away together! Anyhow, where can I buy some new velcro felt for the inside of the helmet?

Thinking of one of these as the visor is said to be usable over glasses. Can the visor be replaced if it gets scratched? Also I like the rounded shape which is less likely to cause your head to catch on something and twist violently in an accident. Anyone using one care to comment. Ideally I...

I accept that nothing will be fresher than no helmet (without going into that debate). I cycle 15 mph for 8 miles each way to work and am a sweaty betty. bought a helmet 3 years ago (bonranger 35 quid from evans) which I hate so have worn it only a few times but my wife is always asking me to...

A story on the BBC about the police accepting Dashcam footage as evidence of road traffic offences. Could this be used to help prosecute some of the more irresponsible cyclists? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-40996609/motorists-using-dash-cams-to-inform-on-dodgy-drivers More generally - good...

This will only be of interest to you if you have a Nationwide FlexPlus account and you don’t want to be compelled to wear a cycle helmet when on holiday (in the UK or elsewhere, unless local laws dictate otherwise). The policy wording for the travel insurance is changing; I received mine in the...

Hello cycle people, specifically those with long hair - how do you keep your ponytail up and off your neck? I tend to pull mine through the little adjustable bracket at the back of the helmet, but that means my hair gets caught in the screw mechanism and sometimes even pulled out. I know some...

Does anybody know if there is a recommended period of time to replace your cycle helmet? I know it is an odd question

I have a reasonably large circumferenced head. But it's long rather than wide. So if I buy a the size helmet that fits front to back it will rock side to side, I can adjust the internal harness to reduce this a little, but all the harnesses seem to do is tighten the back, which in turn just...

Is anyone here familiar with Swiss laws regarding the use of helmet-mounted cameras (or any other variation, e.g. on a dashboard)? I did search for these, but couldn't find anything useful. I do know that their privacy laws have restricted the coverage of Google StreetView in Switzerland, so...

I lost my helmet the other day. With it being a bank holiday weekend i couldn't work out where i'd been to take it off and leave it. I searched the house but no luck. I went to the local Aldi store yesterday and low and behold i saw it there on a pile of compost bags. It must've been there...

As title really. I see there are some helmets out there with a built in eye shield - anybody tried one please? I cycle in my regular prescription glasses at the moment but they do not prevent my eyes streaming at speed downhill. Flipping down a handy eye shield would seem ideal, if they are...

“That’s more or less what the infamous helmet debate has become,” Hussey lamented. “Shouty strangers shouting at other shouty strangers for choices that don’t affect the first shouty stranger’s life." Fun for all the family, at...

Being of a certain age, free bus pass not that far away, I've grown up not using a helmet. Mrs Z has been pestering me of late to get one. I blame all those injured cyclists on 24 hours in A&E. I don't want to spend a fortune in case I don't get on with it and revert to my old habits. Helmet...
