CAN/CSA-D113.2-M89 (R2009) PDF Download

The CAN/CSA-D113.2-M89 (R2009) standard is a collection of specifications that only applies to bicycle helmets that are made to protect the wearer's head. To ensure thorough protection, the standard specifies the precise parts of the head that the helmets should cover. It outlines the fundamental performance standards for shock absorption and the durability of the retention system to make sure that the helmets offer sufficient protection against impacts.

The standard specifies marking and labeling requirements in addition to performance criteria. These specifications guarantee that the helmets are easily identified, enabling customers to choose a particular helmet with knowledge of the level of protection it offers.

It's important to remember that this standard excludes detachable visors. Visors are not taken into consideration in the recommendations, so producers and buyers should take extra variables into account when deciding whether to incorporate or select helmets with detachable visors.
