What Is The Point of a Cycling Hat?
There are several reasons you might want to wear a cycling hat. Whether you opt for a bike hat for sun protection, to hide a bad hair day, or just to look all-levels of cool, they’re all valid points!
Is a Cycling Hat Better Than a Helmet?
Aside from the fact they sit on your head, the two are entirely different and one does not cancel out or replace the other. Bike helmets are compulsory when cycling on Australian roads, so it doesn’t matter if you’re wearing a bike hat or not. Many helmets do not come with sun visors, so a road or mountain bike hat worn under your helmet can provide essential sun protection.
