How to choose the most suitable motorcycle helmet?

The importance of wearing a nice helmet

In the case of road traffic accidents, the death toll caused by craniocerebral injury is quite high, so the protective effect of a helmet is very worthy of attention. Among all the motorcycle equipment, the helmet can be said the one that can not be ignored and worthwhile spending some money.

The type of helmet

A wide variety of helmets can be divided into several categories, full helmet, three-quarters helmet, exposed helmet, half helmet (also known as Harley helmet). Different needs, different models, different kinds of roadside need different helmets.

1. Full helmet

The full helmet protects all the positions of the head, including the chin, so it is the best protective helmet. Its drawbacks are also obvious. Its breathability is relatively poor, so when you wear it, you will feel very hot. But the helmet will usually have ventilation holes, so in the course of the ride, you will not feel difficult to breathe. If you dislike the feeling, I suggest you purchase a motorcycle helmet quick release buckle which is a safe, fast and convenient way to securing your helmet and you can also release it fast.

2. Three quarters helmet

Three-quarters helmets with goggles protect all parts of the head except the chin, and the protection is good and it’s relatively breathable, so these helmets are popular.

3. Exposed helmet

The biggest advantage of the helmet is the freedom to choose. Close the mask it will immediately become a "full helmet", open the mask it has become a "three-quarters helmet."

4. Half helmet

It’s not recommended to wear the half helmet since it can not protect your face or chin or other parts of your head except for your brain. So you’d better wear a motorcycle helmet shield mask or goggles shield mask yourself.

The mistake of buying a helmet

Many people in the choice of helmets have a misunderstanding, that is, deliberately choose a larger size than their head size, which is actually wrong. Helmet design primary consideration is the overall strength of protection and buffer, so thick foam pad will make people feel very tight. So the selection of a suitable size helmet is very important, the right choice is somewhat tight helmet is appropriate.

The daily maintenance of the helmet

1 helmet can be wiped with water, but can not use alcohol, gasoline and other organic solvents or acid, alkali and other corrosive liquid to wipe.

2 if the liner can not be removed, use a brush dipped in diluted neutral detergent to wipe, then to dry.

3 helmet can be placed in a ventilated, cool place to dry, and should prevent moisture and exposure.
