Cycling | how to adjust a child's bike helmet?

There are still quite a few number of recorded injuries by bike accidents in every-country everyday. 
If you fall down, the part of your body that is most likely to be hit is your head. It’s also your head that tends to suffer the most severe injuries.

Helmet is designed to limit impacts and absorb the force of the impact up to their resistance limit. 
If the power of the impact exceeds this limit, the helmet will crumple. 
The way it absorbs the shockwaves is a bit like the role of a car airbag: its main aim is to protect your head from direct impacts.

Getting the right size helmet for both comfort and effectiveness, that sit level on your child’s head, with an inch gap between their eyebrows and the helmet.
The straps need to sit firm when buckled up, but not be too tight or loose.

The size of your helmet can be measured in two methods: with a standard size or with your head measurement (you should always try your helmet on before buying it).
