Top 5 Stylish Helmets for E-Scooter and E-Bike Riders in Sydney

Did you know that the first helmets were used in 900 BC by the Assyrian warriors? Yep, those ancient soldiers carved leather and bronze helmets which proves that humans realised early that protecting the ol’ noggin was a smart move. Fast forward to today, although we are not riding horses into battlefields, our helmets are still evolving only now they’re designed for biking, scooting, and looking cool.


In today’s world, just like the ancient warriors, bikers and cyclists are in their battle against potholes, distracted drivers, and sometimes their speed demon instincts. Modern stylish e-bike helmets are designed for safety and comfort, with features like dual visors, aerodynamic air intakes, and washable liners that make you feel safe and comfy even on the sunniest rides. 


It’s no myth that helmets can save lives. In 2020, helmets saved around 1,872 lives in the U.S., with more lives that could have been saved if everyone wore one. While you say helmets are uncool, think again! They’re a one-way ticket to staying alive on the road.


Compared to older, bulkier models, modern helmets are more effective, with advanced materials and designs that distribute impact force more evenly across the head which reduces the risk of fatal injuries. These innovations have significantly improved safety as technology keeps advancing.


You can find helmets in matte black, glossy finishes, or even those with colourful, artsy designs.


Things To Consider Before Buying A Stylish Helmet

While we can all agree that safety is of supreme importance when it comes to choosing the best e-bike helmet for style, we also agree that we don’t want to wear a helmet that doesn't look nice or is uncomfortable. Every rider knows a good helmet is important. But actually, choosing one? That’s a whole other story. With so many stylish bike helmets on the market today, it’s hard to pick one that’s just right for you. To help you narrow it down next time you shop, follow our checklist below and use this as your guide: 

 

A visor

A helmet visor isn’t just for looks! it’s like your personal superhero shield. It keeps the sun out of your eyes blocking those UV rays & also protecting your eyes from dust and dirt. If biking’s your thing, a visor not only adds to your style but also adds an extra layer of safety to every ride.

 

Straps

Your helmet would just be a fancy hat flying off at the worst moment without straps. When it comes to fit, your helmet straps should be secure but comfortable & tight enough to keep the helmet in place, but not so tight that they feel too restrictive. Try the “finger test.” Being able to fit more than two fingers between the chin strap and your chin, it’s too loose.

 

Good Ventilation

Wearing a helmet without ventilation is like trying to enjoy a sunny day with your head stuck in a toaster! Proper ventilation is your best friend on long rides, letting the cool air flow through and keeping that sweat at bay. With newer designs, you won’t have to worry about overheating on your ride. These helmets keep your head cool, helping you avoid sunstroke, and let's be real, save you from looking like you’ve just finished a workout when you step off your e-bike. Cool helmet, cool ride!

 

Comfort

Look for one with extra padding. To make your cruise hassle-free. It will also help soak up sweat, so you arrive feeling fresh. With all these foams and padding, make sure it is lightweight. The lighter, the better! After all, who wants to feel weighed down when you're cruising through the city on a beautiful day?

 

Style (Obviously.)

If your bike helmet isn’t rocking your style, we suggest don’t stop looking just yet. Safety and convenience are key, but looking for cool designs for e-bike helmets is pretty important too. Different helmet styles are designed for various types of biking and conditions. For example, a full-face helmet is great for downhill mountain biking, providing extra protection for your face and chin, while a lighter, more ventilated helmet might be better for road commuting.
