180m. The battery lasted for 2.5 hours on the brightest setting.

the usual method used to adjust a helmet\u2019s fit.<\/span><\/figcaption><span class=\"&quot;im-image-caption&quot;\"> <i>Dave Caudery \/ Our Media<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<p>Adult lids are usually sold in three <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.bikeradar.com\/advice\/sizing-and-fit\/bike-helmet-sizes\/&quot;\">helmet sizes<\/a>, designated small, medium and large, although some commuter bike helmets come in fewer sizes. These sizes cover a range of head sizes that the helmet is designed to fit, which is the head circumference measured horizontally just above the eyebrows.<\/p>\n<p>The range of head circumferences covered by a helmet size will be shown on the helmet, its packaging and the manufacturer\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p>The first step is to measure your head size, if you don\u2019t know it, to determine which size urban helmet you need. Either use a soft tape measure or a length of string.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s well worth trying before you buy, because all helmets are shaped slightly differently, so you may find that one helmet of the correct size fits your head shape better than another. To find the perfect fit, it\u2019s also crucial to know <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.bikeradar.com\/advice\/sizing-and-fit\/how-to-wear-bike-helmet&quot;\">how to wear a bike helmet<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>All cycling helmets have a degree of adjustability. You can usually move the rear cradle up and down, so that it sits comfortably below your occipital bone (the bump at the back of your skull).<\/p>\n<p>The circumference of the cradle can then be adjusted so that the helmet fits snugly around your head. This is usually by means of a dial adjuster at the rear of the helmet.<\/p>\n<h3>When do I need to replace my commuter helmet?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\"

that has been involved in a crash should be replaced. Even if damage appears cosmetic or is not visible, the helmet structure may have been compromised, so it may not protect you in a subsequent accident.<\/p>\n<p>Many helmet makers will offer you a crash-replacement discount, although this is usually only for a limited period of a few years.<\/p>\n<p>If your helmet has been dropped or crushed, it may have been damaged, so again it\u2019s sensible to replace it to ensure protection.<\/p>\n<p>Urban helmets tend to have more durable shells than road bike helmets though. This makes them a little heavier but means they can better at withstanding scuffs.<\/p>\n<p>Helmets will <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.bikeradar.com\/features\/how-to-inspect-and-care-for-your-helmet\/&quot;\">deteriorate<\/a> over time as the materials age. This may be accelerated by sunlight, heat and sudden temperature changes, so try to keep your helmet away from windows and don\u2019t leave it in a hot car or other hot place during summer.<\/p>\n<p>Kask, as one example, recommends replacing your helmet three years after you bought it.<\/p> <\/body><\/html>\n<hr class=\"no-tts wp-block-separator\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> The best commuter bike helmets will keep you safe, comfortable and visible on your urban rides <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":48341,"template":"","categories":[1],"acf":{"readingTimeMinutes":"15"},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2023\/04\/best-commuter-bike-helmets-2023-the-best-urban-lids-rated-by-our-expert-testers-scaled.jpg",2560,1829,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2023\/04\/best-commuter-bike-helmets-2023-the-best-urban-lids-rated-by-our-expert-testers-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2023\/04\/best-commuter-bike-helmets-2023-the-best-urban-lids-rated-by-our-expert-testers-300x214.jpg",300,214,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2023\/04\/best-commuter-bike-helmets-2023-the-best-urban-lids-rated-by-our-expert-testers-768x549.jpg",768,549,true],"large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2023\/04\/best-commuter-bike-helmets-2023-the-best-urban-lids-rated-by-our-expert-testers-1024x731.jpg",800,571,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2023\/04\/best-commuter-bike-helmets-2023-the-best-urban-lids-rated-by-our-expert-testers-1536x1097.jpg",1536,1097,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/43\/2023\/04\/best-commuter-bike-helmets-2023-the-best-urban-lids-rated-by-our-expert-testers-2048x1463.jpg",2048,1463,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"importmanagerhub@sprylab.com","author_link":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/cyclingplus\/author\/importmanagerhubsprylab-com\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"The best commuter bike helmets will keep you safe, comfortable and visible on your urban rides","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/cyclingplus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed\/48340"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/cyclingplus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/cyclingplus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/rss_feed"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/cyclingplus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/cyclingplus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48341"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/cyclingplus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48340"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/cyclingplus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48340"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
