The Best Commuter Bike Helmet

Choosing the best helmet can feel like an impossible task. There are infinite options on the market, yet many riders either pick a hot and bulky helmet or don't wear a helmet since it doesn't fit their lifestyle. Since bicycle helmets reduce the risk of severe head injuries by 70%, we knew we needed to make sure people found helmets to fit their cycling habits.

The City Riders Have Spoken

As passionate bike commuters, we were disappointed with the available options and decided to make a change. We asked hundreds of city riders what they really needed. They asked for a helmet that was convenient, breathable, and thoughtfully designed.

We created exactly that with our light, foldable helmet. Whether you're on the go or going for a casual ride, FEND gives you the freedom to travel light and out of sight.

Safety First for FEND

Is FEND all style and no substance? Safety is everything to us, and without it, your helmet is useless. Our team spent years developing a helmet that is not only convenient but also incredibly safe. FEND exceeds US CPSC and European EN1078 safety standards for bicycles, skateboards, and e-bikes/scooters under 20mph.

Convenience = Safety

You can have the safest helmet in the world, but if you don't wear it, you'll be fending for yourself. The FEND helmet folds down by over 50%, making it easy to tuck away for when you need it. It is safety certified and highly convenient. Also included are a different set of thicker pads for the perfect fit, an integrated dial fit system for precise adjustments, and a premium canvas carry bag for easy storage when not in use.

Are you tired of carrying around a bulky helmet? So were we, the suffering is over, and FEND offers the perfect folding helmet solution for bikes, scooters, skateboards, and rollerblades.

Keep Your Head Cool

Arriving at your office with a sweaty head is never a good look for your Monday morning meeting. Safety doesn't have to mean padding away the breeze. FEND uses 22 large vents to make sure your head stays cool and calm. Welcome to the best commuter bike helmet. 

Top Tip: Are you riding in the winter and feeling the chill? No problem. Use this Rapha Cap to ward off the elements.

Fantastic Fit with FEND

Comfortable, lightweight, and adjustable. No matter your head size or shape, we have you covered. Using our integrated dial fit system, adjustable straps, and extra pads, we've created the perfect fit just for you.
