The measured head circumference decides the size, not the S/M/L label · review
An adult helmet with a USB rechargeable rear light with 9 modes, magnetic UV400 goggles, 27 vents and a rear dial, sold in sizes M and L.
Our conclusion The best ventilated of the lit helmets here, with a certification label to check.
A helmet light sits high, close to a driver’s eye line. That is why it adds something a seat post light does not.
A PC shell with high-density EPS foam, a USB rechargeable rear light with 9 modes, a reflective sticker, detachable magnetic goggles with UV400, 27 vents, a rear dial, side straps and removable pads. Size M fits 54 to 58 cm, and size L fits 22.44 to 24.41 inches.
The EXCLUSKY on this shelf has 14 LEDs and names CPSC, ASTM and CE. The ILM has lights front and rear. This helmet has more vents than either, at 27 against 12 and 10, so it should run cooler on warm evenings.
Measure your head at its widest point. Then look for the CPSC sticker inside the helmet when it arrives: it is required for bike helmets sold in the US, and the bullets we read do not mention it.

The bullets we read describe the shell and foam and name no standard. In the US, a bike helmet must meet the CPSC standard, so check the label inside before you ride.
No. It adds a second light at a different height. Keep a tail light on the bike.
