Company Background
Xnito, a San Francisco-based startup established in June 2022, is on a mission to provide the safest helmets for today's faster e-vehicles. With the surge in e-vehicles post-Covid lockdowns, our helmets cater to the safety needs of riders on e-bikes, e-scooters, Onewheels, and e-skateboards.
Helmet Design
- Safety First: Xnito helmets are designed to bridge the gap between traditional bike helmets and motorcycle helmets. They meet or exceed the Dutch NTA 8776 certification, offering 87% better protection than CPSC. Our helmets safeguard riders up to 28 mph, addressing the speed limits of class 3 e-vehicles.
- Extended Coverage: We prioritize safety with extended coverage for the temples and the back of the head, enhancing overall protection.
- MIPS Technology Explanation: In developing our helmet, we did not find that MIPS made any difference when applied to real-life testing which was simulated with a head from wearing a wig. Bottom line is MIPS works great for crash test dummies but not so much for humans that have hair and scalp. Our testing has been verified by other independent organizations.
Integrated Lights
- Visibility Matters: Xnito helmets feature integrated front and rear rechargeable lights for enhanced visibility during day and night rides. This added safety feature ensures you're always seen by other road users
- Convenience: The lights are easily rechargeable and last up to ten hours on a single charge, making them a reliable companion for your journeys.
Comfort
- Ventilation: With a fully ventilated design boasting 10 vents, the Xnito helmet ensures comfort even on the hottest days. The ventilation system contributes to keeping your head cool, reducing fatigue, and maintaining concentration.
- Lightweight Design: Weighing only 13 oz (377 grams), our helmet is so lightweight that you'll barely notice you're wearing it, making it perfect for extended rides.
- Magnetic Buckle System: The advanced magnetic buckle system allows for one-handed fastening and is three times stronger than traditional plastic buckles.
Lifetime Accident
Replacement Policy
- Industry first: Xnito is the only helmet company to offer a lifetime accident replacement warranty - the last helmet you will ever need to buy.
- Customer Assurance: In the unfortunate event of an accident damaging your Xnito helmet, our lifetime accident replacement policy ensures a free replacement, allowing riders to get back on the road with confidence.
