Beyond the more typical time trial and road helmets that Lazer had on display at Eurobike, they also had a few updates to their commuter line of helmets. Taking it a step beyond just e-bike specific protection, the new NTA helmets add protection for high-speed pedelecs.

Anverz urban e-bike pedelec commuter helmets

Lazer talked about certifying the new Anverz half shell helmet for e-bike use with its integrated Aeroshell, adjustable visor, and removable Bluetooth ear covers last year. But until now it has stuck with CE, CPSC & AS certifications.

That’s set to finally change now with two new helmets that will get distinct orange ear protectors bearing the NTA8776 certification number. The Anverz NTA helmet shares the same removable Aeroshell & adjustable visor of its predecessor (no ear covers it seems), now with protection rated for the higher 45 km/hr speed of e-bike speed pedelecs.

At just 382g (without the shell), the well-vented in-mold helmet (it has the same 23 large vents under the Aeroshell as the regular Anverz) offers protection for a wide range of weather conditions. At 170€ in a standard version or 200€ with a MIPS liner, the Anverz NTA is available in S, M & L sizes and white or black shells.

Revolution NTA e-bike pedelec trail helmet

If you want more of a trail bike look you can get that as well. As we saw when Lazer introduced the Anverz, it was actually just a modified Revolution mountain bike helmet minus the promised removable chin bar. So in upping the pedelec protection for the Anverz, there is a Revolution NTA version as well that gets the bigger orange ear protectors in addition to an adjustable mountain bike visor and a break away SMS helmet cam mount. Only available in black and with MIPS protection, the Revolution NTA sells for 200€.

Why are the 3 newest stories repeated right after the 3 newest stories?

How are these helmets different/ better than the range of gear already produced for other motorcycles?

The speeds they’re designed for. DOT helmets are certified for higher speeds.

Wait, so i have this e-bike that everyone says is just like a normal bike in every way and is no more dangerous then a normal bike but i need e-motorcycle specific protective gear? Something does not add up here.

When will we see e-motorcycle specific leathers with articulated knees so i can still get in the occasional pedal stroke?

It’ll be a few more years. Following what happened with “g-bikes” a hundred years ago, the motors will get more powerful every year and the equipment heavier until these things are belatedly recategorized away from bicycles. In the meantime actual cyclists will have to suffer motorized vehicles on bike paths, and being considered secondary sources of income by the “bike industry”. Richard Cunningham wrote a brilliant article about it on pinkbike: https://www.pinkbike.com/news/history-and-deception-opinion.html

Makes you think how truly inadequate/innefective “regular” road helmets are at anything faster than a brisk walking pace. I routinely reach 45kmh on a road bike and usually hit 60+ at least a few times on a ride. Not that many/any people would wear moto style helmets. But at least let’s stop pretending… MIPS, shmips… helmet laws… based on non-sponsored research that I have seen what lowers injury severity is shape (i.e. Completely round and no vents) and extensive padding. Hence moto helmets look the way the look…

ViRide is correct: plenty of analog bikes without motors reaching very high speeds beyond e-bike speeds.

Mtn bikes are like road bikes in every way, yet each has specific helmets as well. No difference here with e-bikes.

What surprises me is the certifications target impact protection only. There’s nothing about visibility, like reflective gear or lighting (given that LED is very accommodating)
