Buying guide
Electric scooter and e-bike safety accessories
Find accessories for rider protection, visibility, signalling and theft deterrence. Browse helmets and helmet accessories, body protection, gloves, lights, reflectors, mirrors, bells, locks and alarms. Start with your intended use, then check each product’s size, mounting requirements and suitability.
In short
- Choose helmets and body protection by activity, documented standards and fit.
- Lights, reflectors and indicators serve different purposes; check positioning and power.
- Compare mirrors, bells and horns by mounting type and reach.
- Locks, alarms and trackers can complement one another but cannot guarantee theft prevention.
- Helmet covers, cosplay items and ordinary gloves are not certified riding protection.
Choosing safety accessories for your ride
Helmets, body protection and gloves
Check the intended activity and the manufacturer’s sizing guide. Look for documented protection standards for the exact model: appearance, a product name or inclusion in this collection does not establish riding suitability. The range also includes helmet locks, covers and specialist items for cosplay or airsoft. Cosplay masks must not be used as protective riding helmets. Our helmet guide explains the differences.
Knee, elbow, wrist and body protection should suit the activity and stay in place without restricting movement. Choose gloves for grip, size and weather; warmth or a rugged appearance does not establish protective certification.
Lights, reflectors and indicators
A front light helps illuminate your route, while rear lights and reflectors improve visibility. Compare beam pattern, runtime in your chosen mode, charging and mounting dimensions. Reflective material needs an external light source. Decorative wheel lights and indicators do not replace the lighting your vehicle requires. Browse lights and check whether a listing includes a complete light or only its bracket.
Mirrors, bells and horns
Measure the handlebar’s outer diameter for clamps and its inner diameter for bar-end fittings. Adjust a mirror for a clear rear view; it complements your own observations. A rear-view camera also needs a suitable screen position and power supply. A bell or horn should be reachable without losing your grip. Check whether the package contains one mirror, a pair or a complete system.
Locks, alarms and tracking
Choose a lock that can secure the vehicle to a fixed object. Compare length, opening size and weight in our lock guide. An alarm responds to movement according to its settings; a tracker may help locate an item but does not secure it physically.
An AirTag holder is just a mount unless stated otherwise. Apple AirTag uses Bluetooth and the Find My network, so do not assume continuous GPS tracking. Check phone compatibility, the tracking network and whether a separate tracker is required.
Winter grip and installation
Tyre grip bands and screw-in studs require suitable tyres, dimensions and fitting. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and check clearance around the mudguard and frame. Additional grip equipment does not make every winter surface safe. Light brackets, reflective vests and indicator backpacks also have positioning and sizing requirements.
Before ordering
- Choose the correct purpose, size, fitting and variant.
- Check what is included and what must be bought separately.
- Request model-specific documentation if protection or compatibility is unclear.
- Check local traffic rules for your vehicle; adding an accessory does not automatically make it road legal.

Frequently asked questions
Which safety accessories do I need for an electric scooter?
Consider rider protection, visibility, signalling and parking. Choose a helmet intended for your activity and check the vehicle’s lights, reflectors and warning equipment. Add a suitable lock and accessories for your use.
Are all helmets in this collection suitable for riding?
No. The collection also includes helmet accessories and specialist cosplay or airsoft products. Check the exact model, intended activity and documented protection standard. A name or photograph does not establish riding suitability.
Do safety accessories fit every electric scooter and e-bike?
No. Check dimensions, mounting type, available space and any required voltage or connector. Even products described as universal have fitting limits.
Can an AirTag or alarm replace a bike lock?
No. A tracker can help locate an item and an alarm can draw attention to movement, but neither anchors the vehicle. Also check whether a tracker is included or the product is only a holder.
What is the difference between rider and vehicle protection?
Rider protection is worn, such as a suitable helmet or knee pads. Screen covers, battery covers and storage covers protect the vehicle instead and are mainly found among vehicle protection accessories.
