bike helmet

Two-wheeled headgear

A bike helmet is a hard protective shell worn on the head while cycling, designed to absorb impact in a crash.

Most have ventilation holes and adjustable straps.

Many jurisdictions require them for children, and some cycling communities debate their necessity for adults.

Always wear your bike helmet, even for short rides.
