No helmet can protect a wearer from all foreseeable impacts. Don't try to repair a helmet-- if it sustains a severe blow it needs to be replaced. KBC helmets are made specifically for use on motorcycles--in an accident the helmet can help protect against head trauma. The helmets are designed to absorb impact from blows by partial destruction of their outer shell, and one must replace the helmet after impact. One of the most important aspects of a helmet is that it fit properly. Make sure that you thoroughly test this-- otherwise the helmet will not offer maximum protection. KBC also offers support to consumers online to answer more questions.
