Certimoov establishes its ranking of children’s motorcycle helmets

Launched by the Mutuelle des Motards, the MAIF Foundation and the University of Strasbourg in spring 2019, the Certimoov motorcycle and bicycle helmet crash test today focuses on the children of bikers.. Of the ten models of helmets – no children … – tested, only three obtained the average. Results.

The readers of Site – who, as everyone knows, have a little more living memory than the others – remember that in March 2019, the Mutuelle des Motards relaunched with the participation of the engineering sciences laboratory, the computer science and imaging at the University of Strasbourg (iCube), the project initiated by the Maif in 2014.

"This year 2020, alongside the Mutuelle des Motards, three partners have joined forces to finance the Certimoov helmet testing campaign: the ICRT (International Consumer Research and Testing), the DSR (Delegation à la Securite Routière) and ADAC (Allgemeiner Deutscher Automobil-Club) ". Certimoov goes international !

Mainly focused on bicycle helmets for children and adults, women and men (the market is booming, hohoho), the new Certimoov test campaign also includes some new references of motorcycle helmets for adults … but mainly includes helmets motorcycle for children.

Ten models of different brands have been tested by the organization, always taking into account the "consequences of the most frequent shocks during accidents, as well as their repercussions in terms of brain damage", which the European standard does not care about at present. in force (ECE 22-05).

Although all formally approved (phew!), Children’s helmets get rather low, disappointing or even worrying ratings: 1.5 out of 5 for the last two and a majority of 2 (phew?). Only two references narrowly reach the average and only one reaches 3 out of 5.

While he deserves "encouragement", the best student of the 2020 class is unfairly penalized on the Certimoov site: the image of the Momo Design GTR Baby is incorrect (duplicate of the Premier Baby Visor). Site therefore had to post an image (below) of the helmet that won this extremely hard and tight comparison, probably too much … Parents bikers are losing their minds a bit, no ?
