Blackbeards Motorcycle Gear, Inc. is recalling 522 HamrHead HM-569 motorcycle helmets because they fail to meet federal safety standards for impact protection. These helmets, manufactured in December 2020, may not adequately protect a rider's head during a crash, significantly increasing the risk of serious injury. The recall covers all sizes from XXS through XXL, and the company is offering a full refund to all affected owners.
The helmets fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 218, meaning they do not provide the required level of shock absorption during a collision. In the event of a crash, the helmet may not sufficiently cushion the wearer's head, which can lead to severe head trauma or other life-threatening injuries.
Full refund of the purchase price.
