Melon Helmet Urban Active Collection

Children’s helmet – These are the areas of application

A child's helmet should always be used where there is a risk of falling or collision . A helmet and other protective equipment such as knee and elbow pads are recommended on children's bikes , BMX bikes , skateboards, scooters, hoverboards and also on trampolines. Tip: If you want your children to protect themselves with a helmet, then it is recommended that parents and other adults in the immediate vicinity also wear a helmet during the corresponding activities. This way, the children learn that the helmet is simply part of the equipment for these activities.

Melon helmets from Germany: colorful on the outside, safe on the inside

German craftsmanship can be recognized in the design, but above all in the quality. If you order your Melon helmet in Switzerland, you can be sure that it meets the highest standards and is well thought out.

Some of the advantages:

• low weight and therefore gentle on the neck
• Available in three sizes and with individual adjustment option via rotary wheel
• Fidlock® magnetic closure for easy handling and secure hold
• CoolMax® pads for optimal ventilation and fit
• Can be combined with a practical sun visor in various colours
• 3M reflectivity for maximum visibility at dusk
• TÜV-tested safety features

Twelve ventilation openings direct the airflow through the shell of the Melon helmet and onto your head. Together with the helmet's washable padding, you get excellent comfort.

Excellent, practical, comfortable

A bicycle and skate helmet must be worn correctly in order to fulfil its function. It must sit comfortably on the head in all situations and be able to be adjusted to the shape of the head without any problems. The Melon helmet is equipped with a spindial system (picture) for this purpose. You can operate the dial with one hand and use it to make the strap at the back of the helmet longer or shorter. Of course, you can also adjust it to suit your needs.

The Melon helmet for bike, skate and scooter

The Melon helmet has already won several awards for its comfort, safety and design and is regularly put through its paces by independent institutes with positive results. In addition to the Red Dot Award, Melon has also received the Eurobike Product Design Award. David and Michal Cervenka, the minds behind the Melon, also award prizes themselves. The Melon Helmet Design Hero Award is given to school classes and individual designers. A portion of the proceeds from sales of the award-winning design is donated to charity.

Sun protection / sun visor / visor

If you want to buy a Melon helmet , you can use it for all kinds of sports and also for your daily commute to work. For freeriders, there is also a visor that looks like the sun visor of a baseball cap. You can attach it to the front of the helmet without any tools. Simply click it into the holder and you're done!

The round shape offers good protection from all sides, is aerodynamic and gives the Melon helmets a small volume. So you can simply put your helmet in your backpack or tuck it under your arm when you're not wearing it.

Helmet with five layers for more protection

A Melon helmet for children and adults is constructed in several layers:

• There are reflective stickers on the outside. Although they can't protect you from stupid comments if you fail to do a trick, they do increase your visibility in traffic.
• The paint comes further inside. It is scratch-resistant and free from harmful substances.
• The outer shell of the helmet is made of extra strong polycarbonate.
• Underneath is the EPS padding , which sits exactly where it should – no matter what happens.
• The CoolMax® padding absorbs shocks and ensures a comfortable fit.

Melon: the in-molded helmet

The cheapest way to build a bike helmet is to simply connect the outer shell to the padding with a few rivets or glue. This leaves gaps and the connection can come loose over time. With Melon helmets, the shock-absorbing layer is injected directly into the helmet shell. This means it fits seamlessly and is rock-solid. In addition, no additional glue, rivets or other fastenings are required. The straps can also be integrated straight away.

The (sun) protection helmet

With the Melon helmet you have the option of integrating a sun visor that can protect you from UV rays, branches, rain and a frontal collision. The visor is available in 6 different colors and simply looks good. With a few quick steps it can be inserted into the front of the helmet and removed again when you don't need it. The visor is made of transparent material so that you always have a complete overview.

Determine helmet size for Melon

The Melon helmet for children and adults is available in three basic sizes . The fine adjustment can be made directly on the helmet. To determine the correct helmet size, you need a tape measure or a piece of string. Start measuring on the forehead just above the eyebrows and go straight around the head. The tape measure should always be horizontal to the ground. It is best to get help with this. Depending on the circumference of your head, there are different padding sizes for the helmet.
