Shopping with Bern Helmets (UK)
Choosing by sport
Bern organises its range by activity, which is the most useful place to start. The snow line includes the Macon and Watts, while the bike range covers road, urban and eBike use. Skate and watersports helmets are listed separately, so check the category before comparing models, since a helmet built for one activity may not suit another.
Understanding MIPS versus standard models
Several Bern helmets are offered in a MIPS version and a standard version of the same design. The brand describes MIPS as an added safety feature, and the price difference between the two variants reflects that. If you are buying for regular use, the MIPS option is the one to compare first, then check the fit and finish.
Where the range is strongest
The Brentwood 2.0 is aimed at urban riders, with a ventilated shell and a lighter build than the earlier model. The Macon 2.0 and Watts 2.0 are more versatile, and reviewers in the brand's press extracts describe them as suitable across more than one sport. For children, the Nino and Nina DVRT youth helmets sit alongside junior versions of the Macon and Brentwood.
Accessories and finishing
Bern also sells goggles and accessories, including winter goggles and seasonal liners. Colour choice is mostly about matte or satin finishes, and some models come in limited colourways that sell out. If you want a particular finish, check stock before committing to a sizing plan.
