Whether in a child seat, on a balance bike or on a child's first bike, a helmet is a must when the next generation comes into contact with a two-wheeler. Met has given its Hooray children's helmet an update with clever features such as a red rear light, mips and a shape specially tailored to the needs of young bikers. As children's heads are still growing and are still quite soft, pressure points can be particularly painful. With its Bimbi Secure Technology prevent such pressure points. The Ratchet fastener should also prevent unpleasant pinching.

Met has also installed the protection in the new generation of the Hooray children's helmet. Cost point for the Mips version: 75 Euro. Without Mips and LED rear light, the Hooray costs 45 Euro >> available here.
Met has also cleverly designed the back of the helmet shell to be flat so that it does not bump into the back of the child seat. The red LED rear light is designed to light up for 60 hours and increase safety through increased visibility (only in the Mips model).
