Fitting your helmet
Ensuring a helmet fits properly, and is worn correctly, is a vital part of the safety effectiveness of the helmet.
A correctly fitted helmet:
- Sits level on the head (not tilted back)
- Covers the forehead
- Does not rock excessively front‑to‑back or side‑to‑side
- Straps tighten evenly
To test if your helmet fits you and is worn correctly, ask the following questions:
Can you fit two fingers between your eyebrows and the helmet?
Do the straps join in a "V" just below the ears?
Can you fit two fingers between the helmet strap and your chin?
