Protective half helmet UVEX oyo style — hard shell construction, multicolour

UVEX oyo style is a protective half helmet with a hard-shell construction designed to provide head protection for urban cycling, commuting and leisure riding. The helmet combines a low-profile half-shell design with a robust polycarbonate outer shell bonded to an EPS inner layer to deliver impact resistance while remaining lightweight. It includes forehead and temple protection, an additional rear pad to reduce jolts, and an optional plug-in LED for increased visibility in low light.

Advantages

The helmet’s inseparably joined polycarbonate outer layer and EPS inner layer provide high impact strength without adding unnecessary weight. Integrated side protection and a dedicated rear pad help protect sensitive temple and occipital areas. The uvex monomatic one‑hand sliding-tab fastener and adjustable IAS fitting system allow simple, precise adjustment for a secure, comfortable fit.

Suitable for

• Urban cycling and commuting
• Leisure rides and family outings
• Children using a rear child seat
• Young riders taking their first rides on balance bikes or bikes with trainer wheels

Когда может не подойти

This half-shell helmet is not designed for high-speed sports such as downhill mountain biking or motorcycling where full-face protection or helmets meeting sport-specific standards are required. It may also be less suitable for users who require ventilation levels beyond what a compact half-shell design can provide.

Key specifications

• Construction: hard-shell outer layer bonded to EPS foam liner
• Protection: integrated forehead, temple and rear head pad for additional shock absorption
• Adjustment systems: uvex IAS head-size adjustment and FAS webbing for strap shaping
• Fastening: uvex monomatic one-hand sliding-tab comfort fastener
• Weight: lightweight construction (manufacturer-stated lightweight design)
• Extras: compatible plug-in LED (sold separately)

How to use

Place the helmet on the child’s head so it sits level and covers the forehead. Use the uvex IAS system to adjust the internal circumference for a snug fit and shape the FAS webbing around the ears for correct strap positioning. Fasten and adjust the uvex monomatic sliding-tab fastener with one hand until the chin strap is close but comfortable. Ensure the rear pad rests against the back of the head and that the helmet does not tilt excessively forward or backward. Add the optional plug-in LED when extra visibility is needed in low-light conditions.

What to consider before purchase

• Choose the correct size range to ensure proper fit and protection
• Check compatibility if you plan to add the plug-in LED accessory
• Consider usage: this helmet is intended for urban, commuting and child-seat use, not for high-speed or motocross activities

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the helmet for signs of damage after any impact and replace it if cracks, deformations, or significant wear are found. Follow manufacturer instructions for cleaning and storage and replace the helmet if it no longer fits correctly as the child grows.
