We'll show you why they're so important and help you find the BMX helmet that not only protects you, but also suits you. From the crucial materials to the fit - here you can find out everything you need to know about BMX and dirt helmets.

Why BMX helmets? Because they perfectly combine safety and style! In BMX sports, crashes and spectacular tricks are the order of the day. This is where the BMX helmet comes into play: bike helmets protect your head and even improve your performance. Unlike conventional bike helmets, which are mainly designed for road use, BMX bike helmets offer more comprehensive protection. They enclose the head better and have a more robust design. A high-quality BMX helmet is characterized by a stable outer shell, effective shock absorption and a comfortable fit. They also have cool designs that emphasize your personal style on the track. We offer helmets that are not only safe, but also a real eye-catcher. Because we know that: A BMX helmet is more than just protection - it lets you show who you are on the bike.

With our top selection of BMX bike helmets, you'll find exactly what you need, whether you're an adrenaline junkie or a style enthusiast.

Full-face helmets are the first choice for BMX and dirt riders who don't compromise when it comes to safety. They offer all-round protection for the entire head, including the chin and face. Dirt bike helmets are ideal for park riding and risky stunts in slopestyle, where there is a higher risk of injury. With features such as shock-absorbing layers, robust outer shells and a secure closure system, they offer maximum protection in the event of a fall. Despite their comprehensive protection, dirt helmets are lightweight and comfortable so that you can concentrate fully on your ride.

Open-face helmets, also known as half-shells, are the perfect choice for riders who value freedom and a lightweight feel. They offer protection for the upper part of the head without covering the face. And at the back of the head, these head protectors are usually slightly lower. This makes these helmets ideal for street and vert riding, offering an excellent balance between protection and comfort. With generous ventilation openings, they ensure optimal air circulation, which is a blessing on hot days on the bike. They also provide better all-round visibility and make it easier to communicate while riding.

BMX helmets are made from innovative materials that combine lightness with robustness. They are made from advanced composite materials that effectively absorb shocks while ensuring a comfortable fit.

• Outer shell: Often made of ABS plastic or polycarbonate. These materials are known for their high impact resistance, robustness and low weight. They offer a good balance between protection and weight.
• Inner layer: Is often made of EPS (expanded polystyrene). It is lightweight, has excellent shock absorption properties and compresses on impact to absorb the energy of the impact.
• Inner padding: Soft foams covered with a fabric are used for this. This padding ensures comfort, adapts to the shape of the head and helps to absorb perspiration.
• Straps and closures: Are usually made of nylon and polypropylene, as these materials are both durable and lightweight. They are crucial for securely fastening the helmet to the head.

A special feature is the MIPS system (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System), which is integrated into many helmets. This system is an additional layer inside the helmet made of special plastics. It offers additional protection against rotational movements that often occur in accidents. MIPS allows relative movement between the helmet and head in the event of an angled impact, which reduces the rotational forces transmitted to the brain. This increases safety and minimizes the risk of brain injuries in the event of a fall.

Fit and comfort are crucial when it comes to your perfect BMX helmet. A well-fitting helmet can make all the difference in terms of safety and riding experience. Here are our tips for finding the right size and fit for your BMX bike helmet:

• Sizing: measure your head circumference at the widest point above your ears. Compare this dimension with the manufacturer's size chart to determine your ideal helmet size. Bear in mind that each manufacturer may have different sizing standards.
• Adjustment: Once you have found the right size, fine adjustment is important. The straps should be adjusted so that the helmet fits snugly but does not pinch. The chin strap should fit comfortably under the chin without being too tight.
• Correct adjustment: A well-adjusted helmet should sit evenly on the head without tilting forwards or backwards. It should be tight enough not to slip, but not so tight that it causes headaches.

When buying a BMX helmet, it is crucial to choose the right fit and size. This is important, as only a helmet that fits comfortably will offer you maximum protection. Look out for safety certifications such as CPSC, ASTM or EN1078 and, depending on your riding style, opt for a full-face model for park and slopestyle and an open-face helmet for street, vert & co. Lots of ventilation openings are a must, as BMX and dirt riding with stable steel bikes is very physically intensive. Without question, safety comes first when choosing a helmet. However, we also recommend that you choose a BMX helmet that complements your personal style or the colors of your bike and equipment.
