You only get one brain - protect it EVERY time you ride! 🚴♀️💙
Aside from the bike itself, a properly fitted helmet is the most important gear you own and should ALWAYS be worn - whether you are trail riding or teaching the kiddos in the driveway.
👉 We carry adult and youth helmets in a variety of colors, styles, and sizes to help every rider stay safe and comfortable on any adventure.
Here are a few things every cyclist should know:
🪖 A helmet should fit snugly and sit level on your head - not tipped back or sliding around.
🪖 Most manufacturers recommend replacing your helmet every 3-5 years, as materials naturally break down over time from sunlight, sweat, and everyday wear.
🪖 If your helmet has been involved in any crash or significant impact, it's time for a replacement - even if you can't see any damage. Helmets are designed to absorb a single impact, and hidden damage can reduce their ability to protect you during your next ride!
🤔 Not sure if your current helmet still fits or if it's time for a replacement? Stop by the shop! We'd be happy to help you find the right fit and answer any questions.
While you're here, check out our selection of bells, lights, water bottles, gloves, locks, baskets, and other riding accessories to make every trip a little more enjoyable.
