As with shoes, the fit can vary depending also on the shape of the head, so be sure to try some out while at the store to make sure that the helmet fits your head shape properly, even if it is listed as being the right size. <strong>A proper fit shouldn\u2019t cause any pain or pressure points. <\/strong>For flip-up models, we suggest you to try it on both with the chin guard closed and open.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Getting the right size to ensure safety and comfort<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With the helmet on, it\u2019s important to check if you feel any discomfort, pressure points, and or if the helmet feels too loose or too tight. Please keep in mind that most helmet liners break in a bit after some hours of riding.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The helmet shouldn\u2019t wobble around when you move your head<\/strong>, because in that case it won\u2019t ensure adequate protection in case of impacts; therefore, try to shake your head to the sides and with your hand push it up and down to check if it\u2019s too loose.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A motorcycle helmet should fit snug properly<\/strong> without minimal play when firmly twisting the helmet from side to side, and up and down! You shouldn\u2019t feel pain directly at the forehead, or just above the temples. In case you are used to wear a balaclava under the helmet when riding, make sure to wear it also trying on the new helmet fit.<\/p>\n<p>Lear more about Caberg full helmets collection at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.caberg.it\/en\/helmets\/\">https:\/\/www.caberg.it\/en\/helmets\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In order for a helmet to fit correctly and offer adequate protection, it\u2019s vital you choose the right helmet size: learn with us how.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1999,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2013","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-helmets"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.4 -
