With improvements in battery capacity and packaging, it isn’t surprising to see the rise in E-Bike popularity. Battery assisted bikes are now available in everything from high-performance carbon fiber bikes to urban cargo bikes. One challenge with E-Bikes is the fact that they typically have higher sustained speeds compared to standard bicycles. This has led to the development of the NTA-8776 E-Bike helmet certification to ensure that helmets are safer at higher impact speeds (upto 45 km/h or 27.9 mph). The Lazer Urbanize MIPS carries the NTA-8776 certification as well as offering MIPS for improved rider safety. However, you don’t need an E-Bike to appreciate the Urbanize helmet, as it incorporates a number of commuter friendly features.
Designed for urban use, the aptly named Urbanize helmet has the familiar helmet profile associated with commuter helmets. The helmet looks similar to a baseball or snowboarding helmet, with a tall rear profile and a few strategically placed vents around the sides. There are 6 vents, a wide one on the front of the helmet and two on each side. The sixth vent hole is on the rear of the helmet and also doubles as a mount for the removable LED tail light. Although Lazer also markets the vent hole to put a lock through, we found that it was inconvenient as the retention system needs to be pushed out of the way. However, the side vents are large enough that you could stick a lock through those instead.
As a road cyclists, we are more accustomed to seeing integrated lenses on aerodynamic helmets to reduce the drag caused by helmets. That’s why we were a little skeptical to see the magnetic panoramic lens on the Urbanize helmet. While this isn’t Lazer’s first commuter or E-bike helmet to have an integrated lens, it does appear to be the first to use a magnetic attachment mechanism unlike previous helmets that use bolts or pins. This allows you to easily attach or remove the lens by simply aligning the magnet in the lens and the helmet. Lazer also allows you to attach the lens upside down above the brim to stow it away if you decide to not wear the lens...
