Combining style, lightness, and protection, Bollé’s urban bike helmets are designed for men and women commuting in the city.

They also feature advanced city-friendly options such as integrated visors and light features, making daily rides both safe and stylish.

How to Choose Your Urban Bike Helmet?

The fundamental purpose of a bike helmet is to ensure the cyclist's safety by protecting their head. A non-certified or poorly fitted helmet may be far less effective. In urban environments, consider the following aspects when selecting the perfect urban bike helmet:

• Safety: A good bike helmet must meet the highest safety standards. Some Bollé models, like the REACT MIPS and HALO REACT MIPS, are equipped with MIPS and AVID Progressive EPS technologies to protect the skull from shocks and impacts.

• Size: The helmet should fit perfectly to ensure both comfort and optimal protection.

• Comfort: For prolonged use, helmets must be comfortable to wear. Bollé’s Click-To-Fit™ adjustment system ensures a perfect fit.

• Style: Choose a helmet that matches your personal style and that you enjoy wearing. Bollé designs urban bike helmets with sleek, contemporary lines that not only protect you but also stand out with their design.

• Integrated Visor: For those looking for an effective solution against elements that could obstruct vision in the city, such as wind or dust, Bollé's urban range includes models with a transparent visor.

What Size Should You Choose for Your Urban Helmet?

Whether it’s for urban or road cycling, choosing the right helmet size is crucial for effective protection. A helmet that is too large may shift and reduce protection in case of a fall, while one that is too small can be uncomfortable and limit ventilation.

Measure your head circumference just above your ears and check Bollé’s size guide to find the perfect fit. A well-fitted urban bike helmet should be comfortable and should not move when you shake your head.

Is It Mandatory to Wear a Bike Helmet in the City?

Although helmet use is not mandatory for cyclists over 12 years old, it is highly recommended. In urban areas, where the risk of accidents is higher, wearing a helmet can make a crucial difference in the event of an accident. It provides essential protection against head injuries, which are among the most serious for cyclists.

Bollé’s urban bike helmets, such as the HALO REACT MIPS, with integrated LED lights for increased visibility, or the REACT VISOR, with its protective visor, are specifically designed to meet the challenges of city cycling.
