Choosing your mountain bike helmet size
To find your helmet size, simply measure your head circumference (around the forehead). This mountain bike helmet comes in three sizes: S:52–55 cm M: 55–59 cm L: 59–62 cm
EN 1078 certified
European standard setting out the requirements and test methods for helmets to be worn by users of inline skates, skateboards, scooters, and bicycles. The corresponding test requirements and methods cover the following aspects: construction (incl. field of vision), shock absorption properties, characteristics of the retention system (incl. chinstrap and tightening devices), marking and information.
Cushioning foam
A cushioning foam replacement kit is available for this helmet on our website. Please note that on some helmets, the colour of the EVA cushioning foam (in contact with the top of the head) may vary.
When should I replace my helmet?
We recommend replacing your helmet in 2 cases: 1. After a fall: In the event of a fall, your helmet's material can deteriorate or even break. Sometimes, you won’t even notice. That’s why we recommend replacing it if you have the slightest doubt. 2. After 5 years' use: The foam deteriorates. It can deteriorate due to impact, storage location, the climate, and its use. We therefore recommend replacing your helmet at least every 5 years.
How do you adjust the helmet?
3 quick steps for adjusting your helmet in 2 minutes: 1. If needed, pull your ponytail through the back of the helmet (lower the dial rim). 2. Adjust and clip both strap buckles together:make sure you can slide two fingers between the strap and your chin. 3. Adjust the tightness around your head using the rear dial. The helmet should be in contact with your head without tipping forward, backward, or sideways, even when you’re moving.
