What size is the Banwood Classic Helmet?
The Banwood Classic Helmet fits a head circumference of 50cm to 54cm. This size range is suitable for most children from around age 3 to 7 years, though head size varies between children of the same age and measuring your child's head circumference before buying is recommended. The dial-fit system at the rear allows fine adjustment within the 50-54cm range so the helmet can be fitted precisely to your child.
What age is the Banwood Classic Helmet suitable for?
The Banwood Classic Helmet is designed for children from around age 3 to 7 years, corresponding to a head circumference of 50cm to 54cm. Suitability depends on head size rather than age: if your child's head falls within this range, the helmet fits. The dial-fit adjustment system allows the helmet to be fitted at any point in the 50-54cm range as your child grows.
Is the Banwood Classic Helmet safety certified?
Yes. The Banwood Classic Helmet is CE marked and meets EN 1078, the European standard for helmets for pedal cyclists and users of skateboards and roller skates. The outer shell is ABS plastic. The helmet is tested for impact protection, strap strength, and field of vision compliance. It is suitable for use with Banwood bikes, scooters, and skateboards.
Can I use the Banwood Classic Helmet with a scooter or skateboard?
Yes. The Banwood Classic Helmet is designed for use with all Banwood products, including balance bikes, Classic Bicycles, Eco Scooters, Maxi Scooters, Vintage 3-Wheel Scooters, and Skateboards. The EN 1078 certification covers both pedal cyclists and users of skateboards and roller skates, so the helmet meets the standard for all of these ride types and makes it practical as a single helmet for children who use more than one Banwood product.
How do I adjust the Banwood Classic Helmet to fit correctly?
To fit the Banwood Classic Helmet, place it on your child's head so the front sits two finger-widths above the eyebrows. Use the dial at the rear to tighten until the helmet sits firmly without rocking. Adjust the chin strap to form a Y-shape under each ear and buckle snugly beneath the chin. One finger should fit between the strap and the chin. Replace the helmet if it has taken an impact.
