Program questions
How the crash replacement program works, step by step.
Who's eligible for the crash replacement program?
Anyone with a registered Hövding whose airbag has deployed in a cycling accident. Registration must be completed before the crash — unregistered helmets aren't eligible for the 50% discount.
What do I need to file a claim?
Your registered email, the product serial, the airbag serial (only visible after deployment, printed on the deployed bag), and a short account of how the crash happened. Photos of the deployed unit help speed things up.
How much is the discount?
50% off the retail price of a replacement Hövding. Shipping isn't included. The discount is one-time per registered unit — once you've used it, the new unit needs its own registration to be eligible again.
Does the program cover non-cycling deployments?
No. The crash replacement program is limited to cycling accidents. Deployments during skating, e-scooter use, or other activities aren't covered — check the warranty policy instead if you think it was a product fault.
How soon will I get the replacement?
After approval (typically 5 business days from submission), we ship your replacement within 2–3 business days. You'll get a tracking link by email as soon as the unit is on its way.
Do I need to return my old Hövding?
Yes. We ask you to return the deployed unit so our engineers can analyse what happened — it's how we keep improving the product. Prepaid return shipping is included in the approval email.
