Our oldest used the same helmet for a couple of years and loved it. We felt it did the job since he was mainly learning to ride with training wheels and wasn’t going at high speeds. As he started getting more confident in his biking ability and hitting the trails, I knew I wanted to find a helmet that would give him extra coverage. He will be turning eight in a couple of weeks and has no fear when it comes to riding down hill at top speed.
After researching and reading about tons of helmets, I decided on the Fox Flux Helmet for him. The Fox Flux Helmet offers:
- Deep rear EPS profile for additional coverage
- 20 large vents for maximum airflow and temp. control
- Detox retention system to dial in the perfect fit
- Removable visor
Not only does it have all these awesome features but it also passes safety tests. After everything I read about this particular helmet, I knew without a doubt that this was what he needed.
All in all he is very pleased with the Fox Flux helmet, and as a parent I feel very confident that his head would be protected in case of a wreck. The Fox Flux runs around $90 and is well worth the price!
