How to choose the right helmet brim\n\nChoosing a brim is about fit, coverage, and how you ride. Here’s a quick framework.\n\n## 1) Match your helmet shape\nLook at the front vents and the curvature of your helmet. A brim should sit flush without bowing or lifting.\n\n## 2) Think about your sun angle\n- Mostly morning/afternoon rides? Prioritise forward shade.\n- Long midday rides? Balance shade with airflow and visibility.\n\n## 3) Prioritise safe visibility\nYou want shade without blocking your line of sight—especially when you’re in the drops or checking traffic.\n\n## 4) Consider conditions\n- High heat: keep airflow in mind.\n- Wet / mud: easier-to-clean materials help.\n\n## Quick decision\nIf you’re unsure, start with a general-purpose brim that suits your helmet style and upgrade once you learn what you prefer.\n
