For decades, the bicycle helmet has presented urban riders with an uncomfortable compromise.
Protect your head. Compromise your appearance.
We have become so accustomed to the traditional bicycle helmet that we rarely question its appearance anymore.
The bulky silhouette. The sporting aesthetic. The unmistakable impression of wearing protective equipment.
And then we wonder why so many people leave their helmets at home — if they ever bought one in the first place.
