ECE 22.06 Explained: What Helmet Certification Actually Means: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 18:02, 10 August 2026

To compare our full face and open face ranges side by side, see Hedon Helmets.

Once the shell is formed and cured, it moves through finishing: sanding, painting or leather trimming, and fitting the internal padding and retention system. Every stage is checked before the next begins, since a fault caught early is far cheaper to fix than one found at the end.

ECE 22.06 is the current European standard that motorcycle helmets are tested against, and it replaced the older ECE 22.05 standard with a wider and more demanding set of tests. Helmets are checked for impact absorption at multiple points on the shell, not just the crown, and the standard also tests rotational forces, which earlier standards largely ignored.

Trying a helmet on in person, and wearing it for a few minutes rather than a few seconds, catches problems a size chart alone cannot. Padding also settles slightly with use, so a helmet that feels snug when new is usually the right call.

For replacement visors and care products, see Hedon Helmets.

	~~Full~~ face and open face helmets suit different kinds of riding, and the right choice usually comes down to where and how you ride rather than looks alone.
