Do I need a helmet?

We strongly recommend that you wear a helmet every time you ride our bikes and scooters. The helmet should be Snell, CPSC, ANSI, or ASTM-approved. It should be sized, fitted, and fastened per the manufacturer's instructions. 

We encourage riders to have two finger lengths between their chin and the strap to make sure the helmet is securely on your head. The helmet should be comfortable and snug on your head - it should not move around (for example, it should not fall to block your vision or fall behind your head, exposing your forehead). 

While helmet laws vary by region, country and city, please always wear a helmet. 

For minors, helmets are required:

• Minors over 16 can use non-electric bikes only that you have rented, but they must wear a helmet and perform the necessary safety-checks (both discussed below), and you must educate them on the laws that apply to them and supervise their use at all times. You are legally responsible for all their activities as if it was your own.

For details, please refer to our User Agreement.

Helmets and other protective gear are no guarantee against personal injury. If you choose not to wear a helmet and are injured, you chose to take that risk and we are not responsible.
