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 foams (those 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 is why we recommend replacing it if you have the slightest doubt.
2/After 5 years of use:
The foam deteriorates. It can deteriorate due to impact, where it is stored, 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's rim).
2/ Adjust and clip the buckles on the 2 straps: check that you can still slide 2 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.
