Increasing Motorcycle Ownership
India boasts one of the biggest two-wheeler markets in the world, and motorcycles are a major mode of transport for millions of individuals. This boom in motorcycle usage has, in turn, had a corresponding increase in demand for ride gear. Motorcyclists and riders, whether daily commuters or sport riders, are realizing the importance of wearing protective gear like helmets, jackets, gloves, knee guards, and riding boots. With the escalating popularity of motorcycles, manufacturers are launching a range of gear for various types of riding, ranging from city commuting to cross-country touring. The presence of high-performance and adventure motorcycles on Indian roads is also driving demand for high-end riding gear. Companies are launching specialized gear for off-road biking, track racing, and long-distance rides, prompting riders to spend more on protection. Moreover, as India's middle class expands, riders are happy to pay more for top-grade, branded equipment that provides better safety and comfort.
Growing Awareness of Road Safety
Among the key drivers of the Indian ride gear market is better awareness about road safety. India has one of the highest numbers of road accidents, with riders of two-wheelers being particularly at risk. According to the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH), more than 46,000 two-wheeler motorcyclists lost their lives on account of road accidents in 2022, of which most fatalities were due to the absence of protective gear. This shocking number has resulted in a heightened awareness among riders of the need for high-quality helmets, armored jackets, impact-proof gloves, and reinforced riding shoes. The Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act of 2019 imposed more severe penalties for helmet non-use, resulting in greater compliance. The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has also made it compulsory for helmets to have safety certifications so that riders are using equipment with international safety standards. These norms have fueled the demand for certified helmets, with companies now manufacturing high-end models with anti-fog visors, Bluetooth integration, and greater impact resistance.
