Razor Full Face Youth Helmet - Lightweight Plastic Outer Shell with Adjustable Straps for Young Riders

I am very happy with this helmet. In fact we have ordered a second one for our daughter. This is the lightest full face helmet I could find. It is light, but it is NOT flimsy. The kids actually like wearing it because its comfortable (so they say) and much lighter than their motocross helmets. For bmx riding these are awesome helmets. They can still ware their goggles or sunglasses with these helmets. My son is a pretty average sized 6 year old, and the helmet fits him pretty good. Its just a touch large on him, but not by much. Our daughter is 3 and has a slightly large head for her age, and the helmet also fits her quite well, she definitely has room to grow in it. Just guessing I bet these helmets will fit them until they are about 8-9 years old. The thing I love about these helmets is that the kids actually wear them. Their other helmets are too heavy, and it was like pulling teeth to get them to wear them. I figured these were a good compromise. They might not have as much padding or structure to them as the heavier helmets, but what does more good; a heavy helmet that never gets worn or a light helmet that they like wearing. All and all I think these are great lightweight helmets for the money.

I am an adult male with a 22" (56cm) head, hat size is about 6 3/4". I am near the upper limit for this helmet. If you are 23" this helmet will probably fit a little tight on you, initially. I love this thing. It is exactly what I was looking for. I did NOT want a fiberglass or carbon shelled rigid full-face helmet typical of downhill mtb or bmx track racing helmets. Those were above my price range and they're heavier and clunkier. I'd previously had a 661 Comp helmet, which at about $70 is the cheapest mtb helmet that can be had. That was about 900 grams. This is 590 grams. I use this for skatepark use when I'm on my kick scooter, skateboarding, inline skating, and mountain biking. The 661 helmet, even though it's one of the lightest mtb helmets that can be gotten, was more solid, heavy, and clunky than I wanted. This Razor helmet is the perfect product of being lighter while still offering jaw protection, which any half-helmet, no matter how expensive it is, doesn't offer. I had also previously owned, decades ago, the Troy Lee Edge mtb helmet, which is no longer made, but which served a purpose by being just like this helmet: super light, airy, and all the protection of a typical half-shell with a nominal, lightly functional chin bar. So, yes, it's a cheap plastic chin bar. It does have a minimal amount of closed-cell foam padding on the inside. It is not removable (unlike the Troy Lee Edge and some of the questionable looking Fleabay alternatives). So, you have a choice: want more protection? Spend, at minimum, twice as much to get something heavier, clunkier, and probably less ventilated. This is not the helmet for true downhill racing or big air. If you're going to plant your face into a rock at speed, look elsewhere. But if you just need more protection than a half-helmet without a lot of the inconveniences a full-face brings, then this is one of the only alternatives out there in this price range. Want to spend hundreds for a Met Parachute or a Fox Proframe helmet (two other options with very light, airy designs)? Go ahead! But don't fault this by saying it lacks protection. It is what it is. Further, figure out your sizing, properly, people. There are way too many posters on here complaining about sizing, and it's obvious they have no idea what their or their childrens' head measurements are. Going by the age range is bone-headed, duh. Take a look at any school yearbook or group of kids and you'll easily see that head shapes and sizes are myriad, along with hairstyles, which by themselves greatly affect helmet fit. Get out the sewing tape measure or the string and actually take a head size measurement. Then do your complaining.

We bought this helmet to go with our son's new dirt bike. Not only is it very cool, it also protects. Gone are the days of wearing plain helmets that your Mom forces you to wear! Our son eagerly reaches for this helmet because he likes how it looks on him. In his 6 year old viewpoint he said, "I like my helmet because I feel like a superstar riding my bike. I can pretend that I am a stunt man or on a rocket ship to Mars and I know I look good doing it." My opinion is that when he wrecked - which was inevitable - the helmet protected his head and face, which was worth every penny to me. He also uses this helmet for his regular bike, his pony and his sisters scooter. You wont go wrong - kid tested (ITS COOL), Mommy approved (ITS SAFE)!

Bought this helmet for my 5 year old who has a good size noggin for his age. He is a little daredevil at the BMX park and I wanted something to give protection that was not very heavy and he would like to wear. This helmet fits that bill but is a bit big. The helmet came with an extra set of sizing pads but there was no velcro to attach them so I had to go buy some at a local store. That was annoying. Even with the 2 sets of sizing pads fitted into the helmet I would prefer it to still be a bit tighter. A properly sized helmet really should not move at all front to back or side to side, and in my opinion, this helmet is borderline at accomplishing that on my 5 year old, even with both sets of pads installed. That said, he really likes to wear the helmet and can buckle and unbuckle it himself. As long as this helmet fits your kid, I can recommend it.

Bought for my 8 year old grandson for his electric dirt bike. Fits him well and stays in place. Very lightweight but seems good quality.

After my son fell off his bike while wearing a traditional helmet without the face guard and knocked 3 teeth loose I knew I had upgrade to a helmet that covered his whole head. This helmet is comfortable and its build quality is solid. There are other helmets with a detachable face guards, but those could come off if the fall is hard enough. This one provides the protection I like and the comfort he likes and he gladly puts this on every time he's getting on a bike. I have peace of mind with this helmet.

I like the look and the idea of full-faced protection. However, the strap, no matter how tight, still allows for upward movement exposing the chin and lower face. I bought this for my seven year old. Perhaps it fit older kids better. It's not terrible and I think it still provides more protection than a traditional helmet. 4 stars. Update... This was purchased in October of 2016. It sat unused from December until today, March 8th, 2017. I picked it up and the interior fitting, which provides cushion and is glued to the lower portion (chin area) and wraps around each side of the jaw, fell out. It was a simple fix with a hot glue gun but it just shows how cheaply made it is. 3 stars. If you found my review helpful, please click the helpful button.

The padding in it is SO comfy

I purchased this for my 6 year old grandson. We did measure his head and thought it would fit re stated measurements but helmet was too large.We are keeping it and shoukd grow into it in the next one or two years. Other than that it was ok.

As pictured, no surprises. Too small for 9 ur old, fits and adult with small head.

Fits good, light weight

Looks nice a decent helmet . Fairly light. Comes with extra foam padding for the top of the head but would have been nice of it came with pieces for the side of the head. My son is 7yrs old and this helmet is too loose to be effective . Probably good fit for a kid 9-10 years old. All depends I guess how big your kids mug is lol. I like the helmet and would definitely keep if it was a tad smaller .

Fit a bit big, even after using measuring guides. Fixed with a few extra foam inserts inside!
