The Charge WaveCel commuter bike helmet has been shown in a recent study to be 5x more effective than traditional foam helmets in protecting your head from injuries caused by certain cycling accidents.*

*Based on reduction in rotational acceleration at impact. Probability of injury in an actual accident depends on numerous factors, including the nature of the impact and individual health.

What is WaveCel?

WaveCel is a collapsible cellular structure that lines the inside of your helmet. It works like a crumple zone that absorbs the force of an impact before it reaches your head. Read the study to learn more. You’ll never want to ride anything else again.

Virginia Tech validation

All WaveCel helmets received the highest rating from Virginia Tech’s third-party testing facility. This unbiased assessment proved Bontrager’s WaveCel helmets to be among the highest level of protection available to cyclists with a 5-STAR rating.

Speed pedelec approved
