Road bike helmets for racing, gravel and touring

A road bike helmet should suit the routes you actually ride. In this KED collection the Rayzon stands for focused racing performance. The REACH models widen the choice for tarmac, gravel, long tours and changing weather conditions.

Rayzon: KED's flagship for road cycling

The Rayzon is designed for speed and aerodynamics. Its maxSHELL® construction, 17 vents, K-FIT with K-FLEX side adjustment and the integrated LED rear light with reflector combine a racing focus with a precise fit and visibility in traffic. The Rayzon is manufactured in Germany.

REACH AR-1: sporty on tarmac and gravel

The REACH AR-1 is built for riding on road and gravel. Its features include the Mips® safety system, K-FIT, the structural RIB-CAGE reinforcement and a rubberised goggle garage. An LED rear light with reflector adds to visibility in traffic.

REACH DT-1: modular for touring, gravel and everyday riding

The REACH DT-1 combines Mips®, K-FIT, RIB-CAGE, a goggle garage plus an LED rear light and reflector. Removable cold and rain protection elements and a removable sun visor make it the versatile choice for changing conditions.

REACH DT1 Bestzeit: limited special edition

The REACH DT1 Bestzeit takes over the modular build of the DT-1 as a limited special edition. It is aimed at riders who want the same versatile range of functions in a distinctive finish.

Choosing a road bike helmet to match your riding style

  • Focused road rides and racing: Rayzon
  • Tarmac and gravel with a sporty focus: REACH AR-1
  • Touring, gravel and changing weather conditions: REACH DT-1

Compare the model-specific functions in the product details. Mips®, visor, weather protection and other features are not identical on every road bike helmet.

Buy a KED road bike helmet online

Start with your riding profile, then check the available sizes, colours and features. That is how you find the road bike helmet that suits your favourite route and your riding style.

What is the difference between road and gravel helmets?

Both categories are designed for sporty riding. In a comparison, what counts most is ventilation, weight, fit and the coverage that makes sense for your routes. Which properties a model offers is stated in the relevant KED product details.

Which helmet suits road, gravel bike or bikepacking?

For fast road rides, airflow and low weight are often the priority; for gravel and bikepacking, comfort on long and varied routes matters too. Choose by intended use rather than by the name of the helmet alone.

Do cycling glasses work with KED road and gravel helmets?

Whether helmet and glasses work together without pressure depends on the model, the temples of the glasses and your head shape. Try the combination on together if you can, and make sure the temples and the fit system do not press against each other.

Do all road and gravel helmets have a rotational impact protection system?

No. A rotational impact protection system is integrated only in models marked accordingly, and it can reduce rotational movements in certain angled impact scenarios. You will find the actual specification on the relevant product page.

How do I find the right size for a road or gravel helmet?

Measure the head circumference at the widest point of the head, about two fingers above the eyebrows. Compare the measurement with the model's size range. The helmet should sit centrally, firmly and free of pressure, and must not shift with the strap closed.

How do I care for a road or gravel helmet?

Clean the shell, straps and padding according to the model's care instructions. As a rule, lukewarm water, mild soap and a soft cloth are enough. Avoid aggressive cleaners, solvents and strong heat.

What should I do with a road or gravel helmet after a crash?

If the helmet has taken an impact in a crash, it should not be used any further. Damage to the material structure is not always visible. Also follow the notes in the user manual.
