This helmet is designed for kids and youth riders. It comes in a unisex size of 52-57cm.

Yes, the helmet features 13 vents with internal air channelling designed to provide optimal airflow and keep the rider cool.
How is the fit adjusted?
The fit is adjusted using the MET Safe-T JR Led Fit System, which provides a 360° head belt for a secure and comfortable fit without pressure points. The straps also have adjustable dividers.
What safety standards does this helmet meet?
The MET Crackerjack Helmet meets CE, AS/NZS, and US safety certifications.

Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too loose or wobbly
Tighten the MET Safe-T JR Led Fit System dial at the back of the helmet. Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly under the ears and the chin strap is buckled securely.
LED light not working
Check the battery status or internal component if applicable. Given the 40-hour lifespan, the battery may need replacing or the unit may require servicing if it has depleted its intended use.
Discomfort or pressure points
Readjust the Safe-T JR Led Fit System for a more even distribution of pressure. Ensure the strap dividers are correctly positioned below the ears. The internal shape is refined for comfort, so proper adjustment is key.
Insect net is annoying or not effective
Ensure the net is properly seated within the front vents. If it's causing irritation, check that the helmet fit is correct; a poorly fitting helmet can cause internal components to shift.
