Helmets by Certification
When selecting the right helmet, certification plays a crucial role in ensuring your safety on the road. Helmets certified by recognized safety standards, such as DOT, ECE 22.05, and Snell, undergo rigorous testing to meet specific criteria for impact protection, retention, and penetration resistance. At Team Motorcycle, we offer a wide variety of helmets that adhere to these certifications, so you can ride with confidence, knowing your gear meets the highest safety standards.
Understanding helmet certifications helps you make an informed choice. DOT-certified helmets meet the Department of Transportation's requirements in the U.S., offering reliable protection at an accessible price point. ECE 22.05 helmets, popular in Europe and recognized globally, are known for their comprehensive safety testing. Snell-certified helmets go through even more stringent testing, making them a preferred choice for riders seeking the highest level of protection.
Why Choose Certified Helmets
Certified helmets offer a significant advantage in terms of safety and reliability. Each certification standard involves a series of tests that evaluate a helmet's ability to protect the rider's head in various crash scenarios. By choosing a helmet with a recognized certification, you're ensuring that your helmet has met or exceeded the safety benchmarks set by regulatory bodies.
Moreover, certified helmets are designed with features that enhance both safety and comfort. They often include advanced materials, such as polycarbonate or fiberglass shells, and impact-absorbing liners that distribute impact forces. Many certified helmets also offer adjustable ventilation, moisture-wicking liners, and secure retention systems, all contributing to a more comfortable and safer riding experience.
