How to use

To use the helmet, place it on your head and adjust the rear fit dial until the helmet is snug but comfortable. Ensure the chin strap is securely fastened and adjusted so that it sits firmly against the chin without restricting breathing. Check that the visor is positioned correctly to provide visibility and protection from debris. Always inspect the helmet for any signs of damage before each ride.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify your head circumference to ensure the 55-58 cm size range is appropriate.
• Consider the specific requirements of your riding discipline.
• Check compatibility with your preferred goggles or eyewear.

Usage recommendations: Always replace your helmet after any significant impact, as the internal structure may be compromised even if no external damage is visible. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the materials.
