Fend's 'Super Plus Folding Bike Helmet' cuts post-ride bulk for commuters by folding to half its size, giving riders a helmet that slips into a backpack after locking up. It pairs that packable build with front and rear LED lights and meets U.S. and European safety standards for cycling, scooters, and skateboarding.
Its removable lights make the rider visible from all sides at up to 800 meters and run for up to 15 hours on USB-C charging. A fit dial and adjustable straps help riders secure the helmet, while the light units are built to handle wet commutes.
At $139, the Super Plus turns portability into a reason to upgrade instead of an afterthought. Folding to half its size and carrying its own lights broadens its appeal to riders who want one piece of safety gear for bikes, scooters, or skateboards.
