Frequently Asked Questions
Which protective equipment is mandatory for children cycling in Switzerland?▾
In Switzerland, there is no legal requirement to wear a helmet when cycling, but wearing a helmet is strongly recommended for children and adults. Many schools and insurance companies require a helmet for cycling to school. Different regulations with mandatory helmet use apply to e-bikes and fast e-bikes.
What should I look for when buying a bicycle helmet?▾
A good bicycle helmet should meet a tested safety standard such as EN 1078, offer a precise fit via an adjustment system, provide adequate side protection and have reflectors for better visibility. Good ventilation and low weight are also important so that the helmet remains comfortable to wear even on longer rides.
Which pads do I need for inline skates?▾
For inline skates, full protective equipment with a helmet, wrist guards, knee pads and elbow pads is recommended. Wrist guards are particularly important because when falling, hands are often instinctively stretched forward and the risk of injury to the wrist area is especially high.
How do I find the right helmet size for myself or my child?▾
You determine the correct helmet size by measuring the head circumference about one finger's width above the eyebrows with a tape measure. This value in centimetres is compared with the manufacturer's size specifications. The helmet should fit snugly without pressing and should not slip even with the chin strap open when you shake your head.
Are protectors also useful for adult cyclists?▾
Yes, protectors are not only suitable for children and sporty riders. In everyday life, when commuting by bike or on e-bike tours, back protectors and joint pads can significantly reduce the risk of injury in a fall. Modern protectors from brands like G-Form or POC are flexible, lightweight and hardly noticeable under clothing.
How do I properly care for and clean my protective equipment?▾
Protective equipment should be air-dried after each use to wick away sweat and moisture. The pads and Velcro fasteners can be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap. Aggressive cleaning agents, fabric softeners or machine drying should be avoided, as these can impair the material structure and protective effect.
When should I replace a helmet?▾
A helmet should be replaced after any fall or severe impact, even if there is no visible external damage – the inner damping structure may be compromised. Regardless of a fall, replacement is recommended after about five years at the latest, as materials such as EPS foam age over time and lose their protective effect.
Which protective equipment is recommended for skateboarding?▾
For skateboarding, protective equipment with a helmet, knee pads, elbow pads and wrist guards is recommended. Falls are common, especially in the skatepark and when doing tricks, and the right protective equipment can prevent serious injuries. Brands like TSG, Triple Eight and 187 Killer Pads offer products specially developed for skateboarders with high shock absorption and a robust outer shell.
