Taking design cues from Giro's top-tier adult helmets, the Scamp II pairs a tough outer shell with an impact-absorbing EPS foam liner. Its two-piece construction features a durable upper hard shell permanently fused to a polycarbonate lower wrap, protecting the helmet from the daily drops and bumps typical of active kids.
Engineered with parent-friendly usability in mind, the Roc Loc Jr. dial-fit system uses an anatomical shape and a large, rubberised dial so adults can make micro-adjustments quickly and securely. 13 deep cooling vents keep airflow moving to prevent overheating, ensuring young riders remain cool and comfortable whether riding in a trailer or pedalling on their own.

Why This IS For You
✅ Growing Toddlers & Young Riders: The easy-turn dial system provides a secure fit that adjusts alongside your child's natural growth.
✅ Pinch-Free & Fast Fitting: Designed with an easy-to-use rubberised dial so parents can quickly micro-adjust the tension before rolling out.
✅ Lightweight All-Day Comfort: Weighing just 225 g with 13 vents, it avoids neck strain and keeps kids cool during extended play.
Why This May NOT Be For You
❌ Older Children or Pre-Teens: Sized exclusively for toddlers and young kids; head circumferences over 53 cm require a larger youth model.
❌ Full-Face Helmet Requirements: Features an open-face design, making it unsuitable for aggressive downhill mountain biking or BMX racing.
❌ Extreme Budget Purchases: In-mould construction and premium Roc Loc fit technology make it a higher investment than basic department store foam helmets.
BFC PRO TIP
Position the helmet flat on your child's head so the front edge sits roughly two finger-widths above their eyebrows to ensure full forehead coverage without blocking their vision. If your child's head measurement falls right on the 49 cm boundary between Extra Small and Small, size up to Small so you can dial in a snug fit while leaving headroom for growth and thin beanies on cold mornings!
