“I’m thoroughly impressed with my NewLane Helmet! It’s compact enough to fit in my bag, so I never forget it and can always be safe when hopping on a city hire bike. I loved it so much I bought two more to give to my friends. Best of all, it feels sturdy and safe, unlike other foldable competitors. Highly recommend!”
“I have only had a chance to use this helmet a couple of times so far, but it was an absolute game changer on a recent work trip to London. Much less bulky than taking a normal helmet, especially when I only had hand luggage, and wanted to cycle around London when I was there. I can see this being ideal for the days that I want to commute by bike and train to Belfast as well, and it could be great to take on holiday when I plan to cycle and space is limited! Would definitely recommend fi you are a city commuter, or travel a lot and want t cycle at your destination, and need a smaller more portable helmet.”
“Excellent bike helmet! Fits snugly and comfortably and the ventilation works well without letting in too much cold air. Perfect for staying safe during chilly rides. Highly recommend!””
“It’s an excellent idea, using it all the time now, fits well in my Brompton bag. But, it says it’s good for heads upto 61cm, I’m 60cm and it’s tight. Still highly recommended”
“Absolutely love it! Box was so compact when it arrived that I didn't know what it was until I opened it. Really easy to unlock/lock the clip and folds away into a small bag which is great for zipping about running errands. It's a total gamechanger in this respect. As someone who hasn't yet found a cycle helmet I liked, this one is super stylish and adjsts to fit my head really snuggly and comfortably. Can't recommend enough.”
“Josh and Dom from Newlane are British hardware startup founder inspirations - they didn’t give up for 6 years and executed a brilliant launch for a high in demand product!”
“My brother bought this helmet for me and he told me how excellent the customer support had been at Newlane. He received a personal phone call from somebody at the company to ensure that he was 100% happy with his purchase.”
“From start to finish on my customer journey, it is clear Newlane care passionately about cylcists and cycling. The helmet arrived in carefully thought through packaging, with clear instructions, as well as a QR code for a video offering advice. Customer service followed up to make sure I was happy with my purchase. This was a joyful experience that has extended to the use of the helmet on the roads. Many thanks and don't miss out people.”
“Ordering and fulfilment was super simple and straightforward. I usually wait for the 2nd or 3rd gen of a product release so that the design kinks are ironed out, but Newlane have smashed it out of the park with this first time.”
“Great helmet. So much more convenient than a "traditional" cycle helmet without sacrificing the safety element. Hopefully this will encourage all those who (foolishly) don't wear a helmet while riding though city streets to do so. Great job team.”
“I was excited to get hold of this helmet as I do not like lugging one around so the possibility of just storing it in my bag when not in use was quite attractive.
After creating the video i have been using it for a few days now, and things that i like (apart from it being foldable) are -
It is quite sturdy, feels nicely put together structually, the plastics etc are of really good quality. The back adjustor doesn't snag on your hair which is nice.
The Magnetic chin strap is also a nice little feature - super easy to undo and take your helmet off quickly.
All in all - no complaints, does everything it says it will and more.”
“I have now had my Newlane Helmet for over a month and used it consistently for journeys around London. It is comfortable to wear, easy to flip and store in my bag and a contsant source of envy from people who see it! A perfect answer to the problem of how to stay safe when cycling in London.”
