    Design details

    How do you choose your mountain bike helmet size?

    To find your helmet size, simply measure your head circumference (around the forehead). This mountain bike helmet is available in three sizes:
    S: 52 - 55 cm
    M : 55 - 59 cm
    L: 59 - 62 cm

    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.

    Recycled polystyrene

    50% of the polystyrene in this product is recycled

    Lightweight polystyrene is widely used in packaging to protect everyday products. But all too often, it is discarded after a single use. To change that, we recycle it and give it a new life in our products. Instead of relying on new fossil resources, we recover polystyrene waste. Once sorted and ground, it is transformed into a new material, ready to be used in manufacturing. The result: a recycled material that retains its performance, with at least 43% fewer CO2eq emissions compared to virgin polystyrene.
