Speed Pedelec Helmets

You cannot use just any bicycle helmet on a speed pedelec. This is because a speed pedelec helmet must meet certain requirements. The helmet must comply with the NTA 8776 standard, meaning it protects the head, is suitable for use during physical exertion and does not impede hearing. In addition, a helmet for use on the speed pedelec must be made to provide more protection for the back of your head and your temples. This is because the impact of a fall due to the high speed is a lot higher than on a normal bike. It is therefore important to protect these parts of your head extra well.

A helmet for the speed pedelec provides you more protection than a normal helmet, mainly to the back of your head and your temples. You can also choose to buy a speed pedelec helmet with a visor. The Abus Pedelec 2.0 ACE helmet is a great example of this. With a visor, you protect your eyes from the strong wind due to the high speed you reach on a speed pedelec. In addition, it also protects against flies and other dirt that can get into your eyes while cycling.

The size speed pedelec helmet you need is entirely down to the circumference of your head. On our speed pedelec category page you can use the filters to view the results for your size. Your head circumference is easy to measure by drawing a tape measure around your head. It is important to hold the tape in a straight line just above your ears. Then read off the number of centimetres.

There are many speed pedelec helmets available from different brands. However, we recommend an Abus speed pedelec helmet. Indeed, Abus stands for quality and safety. Which is very important when buying a speed pedelec helmet. Check out our range and make your choice!
