Review on Safe and Stylish: EASTINEAR Adult Bike Helmet with Visor - Ideal for Urban Commuting and Cycling by Robert Sisco

Revainrating 3 out of 5

not suitable for large heads

This helmet is advertised as suitable for heads up to 61 cm in diameter. My head is only 60cm (hat size 7.5) and this helmet fits me uncomfortably. When I remove the balaclava in the helmet, my head fits, but the helmet presses against my head uncomfortably. There is a sticker on the inside of the helmet stating that it meets US safety standards. The decal is different than the decals in the helmets at my local bike shop. I take their word for it that the helmet actually passed US safety testing. The main difference between this helmet and other cheap bike helmets is the built-in turn signal on the back. This light isn't very bright, but hopefully bright enough to draw the attention of drivers who aren't too distracted. I wouldn't credit it as my only bike light, just an addition to the brighter light that was attached to my bike. The flashlight has a small battery, so it's lightweight and charges quickly, but it only lasts about 2 hours. This is enough for most people to cycle to and from work, but perhaps not for recreational cycling.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Some difficulties
