What is the danger
The helmet can easily break during an impact, thus not sufficiently protecting the user from injuries to the head. Furthermore, the rear belt connection tears out easily, hence the helmet may slip off; the lack of helmet retention can reduce its effectiveness in the event of impact, causing injuries to the head.
Requirements breached
The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Regulation and with the European standard EN 1078.
