The law requires that people of all ages wear helmets when riding bikes. In the U.S.. UU., Most jurisdictions require helmet use only for children under 18 years of age. In 13 states (located mostly in the central area of \u200b\u200bthe U.S.) does not require any use of helmets. A little known fact: in the Tour de France not helmet use was mandatory until 1995, when a rider fell into a ravine and died of head injuries. The first Tour was in 1903.
The town has its supporters and detractors among cyclists, particularly urban cyclists. We will not discuss here all pros and cons of helmet. We only ask that you give quarter to this: Helmets can save lives and prevent serious head injuries in case of an accident or a fall in bike. According to a study done in 2008 in the U.S.. UU. by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety , 92% of cyclists killed in road accidents that year had no helmet, while only 8% of those who died had helmet (note: the cause of death in these accidents was not necessarily an injury to the head).
Until recently, there were only aerodynamic bike helmets for racing. This type of helmet, in general, does not please the urban cyclists, who sometimes have a sense of aesthetics on the bike different from other cyclists. Why wear a racing helmet when bike goes to the movies?

But now there are very practical helmets, and very nice for urban cyclists. One of the favorite brands of urban areas in the PRBC is Nutcase Helmets. PRBC Nutcase donated to last year PRBC headphones that gave to low-income children in Pine. Urban Nutcase helmets can be bought directly through their web shop http://www.nutcasestore.com/products.html
