Today, no sane person will argue that a helmet for a scooter is necessary for a safe ride. It should be noted that this is a mandatory protection against injury in the event of a fall or collision. In addition to the danger of accidents on the road, a stone suddenly flying out from under the wheels will convince you of the need for such a "headgear."
The protective helmet for a scooter can have a different design, construction ("Integral", "Cross", "Open", "Transformer"). Naturally, the prices for different models will be different. The helmet for the scooter "Integral" covers the head and face to the very base of the neck. This not only protects the rider, but also muffles the noise of the street. An open helmet does not hide the chin. This is a lighter model, but it is recommended by experienced professionals who are confident in their own skills.
The helmet for the Transformer scooter is a model that changes with an easy movement of the hand into an open type. Helmet "Cross" is designed for sporting events and highly professional use. Of course, the appearance of the model is of great importance, but its functionality, the required size, and also the reliability of the material are much more important.
The scooter helmet has a monolithic hard shell, an internal foam cushion to soften the shock and soft upholstery, which should be completely safe and not cause any allergic reactions. The front part, which closes the eyes, is made of special especially durable plastic and is called a "visor".
If we talk about the transformer, then below the visor is the same basic material from which the entire helmet is made, but with an element designed to reliably protect the chin. There is a special fastening system on the neck.
H-710 is a classic and lightweight open helmet for a scooter. It is designed for long trips when heavier models cause fatigue. Features of its design provide complete psychological and physiological control. Those wishing to purchase such a helmet are bribed by its low cost.
Before you buy a helmet, you need to measure the circumference of the head. Pay attention to the number indicated on the product body. It should match your volume. To evaluate its convenience, a helmet must be tried on. Quite often, the specified size does not correspond to the real one.
A helmet for a scooter, the price of which can range from 1200 to 5000 rubles, will provide safe movement and will become reliable protection in unforeseen circumstances.
The purchase of a reliable helmet is the main task of scooters. You can’t save on it, even if there is not enough money for a high-quality model. It is better to dig them up than to drive onto the road in a cheap fake or without any protection at all. Remember that you can die even at a low speed of 30-40 kilometers per hour, hitting your head in a concrete fence or pillar. Unfortunately, not even one of the most experienced scooters is safe from such an accident. If your loved one loves to "drive" on a scooter, do everything possible so that he must wear a helmet.
