FROFILE · Bicycle helmet

The shock-absorbing capacity of the helmet is insufficient. As a result, the user might suffer injuries in case of an impact. Moreover, due to its inadequate shape and structure, the helmet may come off the wearer's head, increasing the risk of head injuries. The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment Regulation nor with the European standard EN 1078.
