The Villager Helmet features a fashionable design to ensure cyclists always equip themselves with appropriate safety precautions.

Cyclists will often put themselves in danger by biking without a helmet because of the clunky, and sometimes dorky designs of the life-saving accessories. To combat this issue, the biking supply company crafted a reinvented variation of the helmet, making it fashionable, comfortable and above all, safe. Villager is a helmet that's made for the lifestyle surrounding cycling -- commuting, meeting friends and everything in between.

The helmet's design features a unique magnetized front strap that can clip one of three visor styles: The Currier flip, The Half Flip and The Classic. Users can choose what visor style reflects their personal aesthetic that day, ensuring the life-saving tool is not only worn, but worn with confidence.
