LEM Helmets has unveiled a new collection of cycling head protection as it expands into the cycling industry.
The brand has a rich heritage in head protection and safety products in the motorcycle industry, and feels now is the time to broaden its horizons.
Seven new helmets – ranging from road and MTB to commuter and kids – have been designed to “help riders, novice and seasoned, get the most out of like on two wheels”.
LEM will begin taking orders in mid-July, with plans to open additional retail sales channels as it expands throughout the rest of 2018 and beyond.
“LEM Helmets are entering the market with high-quality products with a unique perspective and brand ethos that embraces the freedom, satisfaction and fun you get from riding your bike," said Stuart Brown, LEM Helmets EMEA sales manager.
"Our collection of helmets spans just about every cycling category and are designed with safety as a top priority alongside the simple idea that life is more fun on two wheels. We want riders of all abilities to feel confident with the comfort and performance of our helmets allowing LEM to seamlessly become an extension of their riding.”
