What happened

Shenzhen Favoto Co., Ltd., doing business as Favoto, is recalling its Favoto Model H-1 bike helmets because the helmets violate the mandatory safety standard for bicycle helmets, failing to comply with positional stability, labeling and certification requirements. The helmets can fail to protect the user in the event of a crash, posing a serious risk of injury or death due to head injury. No incidents have been reported. About 2,200 units are affected.

The recalled helmets have a black body with red stripes, black padding, black straps with a silver reflective pattern in the center, and a black and red buckle with a black chin strap. They were sold in youth size large and have a black plastic knob at the back for adjusting the fit. "FAVOTO" can be found in white letters on the side. The helmets were imported from China and sold on Amazon.com from April 2022 through January 2026 for between $20 and $27.
