BMX Helmets

What Is a BMX Helmet?

BMX helmets are crafted specifically to safeguard your head, regardless of your BMX riding style. These helmets typically offer greater durability compared to other helmet types, allowing them to endure the rigours of freestyle BMX riding.

Wearing a BMX helmet is paramount when you ride a BMX. It should be a top priority among your protective gear purchases and worn on every ride. Beyond safeguarding your head, BMX bike helmets boost your confidence, whatever your riding style. Ensuring a tight, snug fit is crucial for safety.

How to Choose a BMX Helmet

Your choice of helmet hinges on your BMX riding style. Open face and full face are the most prevalent helmet types for BMX. Open face helmets feature a classic skate style and are predominantly used for freestyle BMX. Their cool, sleek aesthetics make them popular across various sports, and their hard shell construction offers both durability and lightness.

BMX full face helmets provide enhanced protection compared to open face helmets, although they tend to be heavier and costlier. Commonly employed in Race BMX, these helmets shield both the face and the head.
