Cycling can be especially dangerous in urban centers at night and in bad weather conditions, which is why Torch Apparel updated its popular biking helmet to be even safer.
The helmet features a light on both its front and back, similar to that of a car's headlights. The polycarbonate safety helmet is battery-powered, which means instead of just reflecting cars' head beams, the helmet actually shines its own light. This allows bikers to be seen from further away and makes drivers aware of them sooner, leading to fewer accidents.
The updated T2 biking helmet model is much easier to charge, with a connected USB and three times the battery life. Finally, its one size adjustable design makes it easy to purchase online or send as a gift to an avid cyclist.
