Approximate Size  

Different manufacturers define their helmet sizes differently! So, if you select 'medium' helmets, some will be as small as 55cm whilst others could be as big as 59cm! Not all 'medium' helmets are the same size! We therefore recommend using our 'Actual Size' filter instead.

Small (35)

Medium (58)

XL (71)

XXL (9)

Size Adjustment  

On some helmets you can adjust the size to customise the fit.

Foam Pads (37)

These helmets come with a selection of velcro backed foam pads which you can insert behind the lining of your helmet to customise the fit. It can be a bit fiddly to get right at first but once the pads are in the correct place you should never need to move them again.

Style

Standard (89)

Here we list all 'normal' or 'traditional' helmet styles, including those without a peak, those which are not full cut and those which are not full face.

Peaked (156)

The more modern and fasionable style of helmet. Looks cool and keeps the sun out of your eyes!

Vents  

Venting in helmets can be quite important to control body temperature and to keep a cool head while riding.

Adjustable (2)

The vents on these helmets can be opened and closed whilst you are riding using a variety of slider bars or rotating dials. This means you can adjust the air flow whilst your helmet is on your head - nice and convenient!

Fixed Open (181)

These helmets have air vents which are permanently open, thereby keeping your head cool. They can, however, let some rain in too!

None (63)

No air vents means your head will be warm whilst riding. If you select a Bern helmet with Brock Foam, venting is less important because the Brock Foam is hollow, allowing the free movement of air around your head.

Construction

EPS (113)

Standard material used on most sports helmets. EPS stands for Expanded Polystyrene - it's very light weight and incredibly tough, much harder than the stuff your washing machine comes packed in! The down side is that it is quite bulky and single impact. If you drop or bash your helmet hard, you should replace it. This explains why you should never rent a helmet - you never know who has already bashed it!

In Mould EPS (22)

In-Mould technology (or In-Mold if you are American or zip mold if you are looking at a Bern lid) is an expensive production technique where the helmet's outer shell is simulateneously moulded to the EPS core at the time the core is constructed. The end result is an ultra light weight helmet, with a far thinner profile than a regular EPS lid. It also results in a much tougher and safer helmet. Like all EPS helmets, they are single impact and should be discarded if dropped or bashed.

Brock Foam (109)

Brock Foam is unique to Bern, high tech, super comfortable, low profile 'sink-fit', breathable (so nice and cool) and multi-impact. Bash the helmet time and time again and, so long as the shell is not cracked, you can keep on wearing it! Brock Foam helmets are not certified for snow sports use so are regarded as 'hard hats' rather than 'safety helmets'.

EVA Foam (1)

EVA foam is a soft maluable foam. It's super comfortable, really low profile to stop you looking like a lollypop with your helmet on and is multi-impact, so you can knock your head again and again without needing to replace the helmet! It doesn't offer as much protection as some other construction methods, but for a leightweight, lowprofile multi-impact lid, it's pretty damn good!
