looking for a helmet for my 1yr old, trouble is she has a small head at 45cm. Can't find a helmet that says it goes that small.

Can you reccommend me a suitable helmet??

Why does she need a helmet (just bought my son his first helmet for his 2nd birthday to go with the Rothan)?

I'd rather she wore a helmet when in the seat on the back of my bike

I've looked at teh giro ones and the smallest seems to be 48cm.

Stick a fluffy hat under the helmet to keep her head warm.

Trek do a Junior helmet which should fit. I ended up getting my daughter the next up adjustable helmet because she was just on the lower limit of that, but it's a really nice thing. Well worth a look.

Ta,

so the Met one is stated at 46cm but seems to come out a bit smaller.
The Trek one is 45cm and Specialised do one starting at 44cm.

Guess I'm off to trawl the local shops to see which fits best.

thanks all
