How do I pick the correct size?

Riding helmets should not only look good, but also fit snugly, have a unique ventilation system and comply with all important safety standards.

Abus Pikeur Helmets come in 4 sizes:

SIZE CM
XS 48-52
S 53-56
M 55-58
L 58-61


To find the best size for your Abus Pikeur Helmet:

  • Measure your head using a soft Fabric measuring tape marked in centimetres (cm).
  • Wrap the tape around the widest part of your head – about one inch above the eyebrows, just above the ear line and around the bump at the back of your head.
  • See the video or contact us for assistance.
  • Not everyone’s head is the same so we have different size liners and adjustment pads available if you can’t get a comfortable fit.

How do I adjust / fit the helmet?

When first taking the helmet from the box, pull the rear cage downwards and once on your head you can obtain a snug fit by turning the adjustment wheel.

What if I order the wrong size?

Take care to measure your head prior to finalising your order; if you receive your helmet and you ordered the wrong size, contact us as soon as possible to arrange the return and replacement, depending on size availability. Note return postage will be your responsibility.

I’ve had a fall – do I need to replace my helmet?

Even if you cannot see any damage to your helmet after a fall you should always replace your helmet.  There can still be damage to the structure without being visible.

In Australia it is recommended that all helmets should be replaced after 5 years from first wear.
