This By City Rider ECE 22.06 review looks at a retro adventure-style helmet with a fibreglass shell and removable peak. The double-D strap, washable interior and ventilation openings are practical details to compare alongside its distinctive shape.

Peak configuration and accessory checks
The shell and chin guard contain ventilation openings, and the peak can be removed using the specified procedure. Try the helmet in the configuration you expect to use and confirm the correct parts are supplied. A retro appearance does not establish how its internal shape will fit your head.
The listing describes provision for incorporating Bluetooth equipment; it does not identify a supplied intercom. Confirm the compatible installation before choosing a headset. A helmet bag is included, while the visor is listed as Pinlock ready, so check separately whether your chosen offer includes the correct insert.
Protection and construction
The listed approval is ECE 22.06. Check the exact helmet label and specification for the version you are buying, particularly if you need it for a track event.
Fit and adjustment
The chin-strap fastening is Double-D. Make sure you are comfortable operating that fastening and adjusting it securely before choosing the helmet.
Comfort and everyday use
The interior is removable for cleaning. Follow the manufacturer’s care instructions and refit the pads in their original positions.
Versions and options
The checked listing links to these options: White, Line Black / White, Grey. Check the selected version and available sizes before ordering; the linked price may apply to a particular option.
