1、Designation: F1952 15 An American National StandardStandard Specification forHelmets Used for Downhill Mountain Bicycle Racing1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1952; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revisio

2、n, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers performance requirements forhelmets used by downhill mountain bicycle riders.

3、 Studieshave shown higher risk to the head and face for this sport ascompared to recreational street riding; hence, this specificationrequires greater impact protection and provides performancecriteria for chin bars on full-face helmets, but does not requirefull-face helmets. This specification reco

4、gnizes the desirabilityof lightweight construction and ventilation; however, it is aperformance specification and is not intended to restrict design.1.2 All testing and requirements of this specification shallbe in accordance with Test Methods F1446, except where notedherein.1.3 Partial utilization

5、of this standard is prohibited. Anystatement of compliance with this specification must be acertification that the product meets all of the requirements ofthis specification in its entirety. A product that fails to meet anyone of the requirements of this specification is considered tohave failed thi
