How large should a bike helmet be? |
how much of my forehead and the back of my head should it cover? To be effective as head protection, it should be worn no more than 1 finger-width above your eyebrows (wearing a helmet cocked to the back negates most of its protection). Forehead coverage is more important as most bicycle crashes are "faceplants" but back of the head protection is a bonus that more expensive helmets provide. Helmet makers specify a range of sizes for their helmets that is based on head circumference. Once you determine the proper size, check the fit and comfort. Fit should be snug. Sizing pads are usually provided. Most importantly, try to wear the helmet to see if your head shape is compatible with their helmet shape so you avoid getting one with pressure hotspots. big, alot it depends on what kind of helmet it is and what brand it is. it should say on the back or inside of the box. it should have a nice squeese so that the helmet doesnt fly of but enough room that u wont get a headache enough to cover your head engough to saffely not let ur face het the floor if you fall!!! depends on the style. you need to have it very snug on your head though. thats why they provide those extra little things to stick inside them. and you need to buckle it! otherwise whats the point in having one on? I see so many people rollerblading and bike riding with the straps hanging down the sides of their head. |
