FAQs

How do I choose the correct size?

Measure your child's head circumference using a soft tape measure. Wrap the tape measure around the widest part of their head, about an inch above the eyebrows and ears. Compare this measurement to the sizing chart: XS (45-49cm) is typically for ages 1 and up, and S (49-53cm) is for ages 5 and up. Ensure a snug fit without being too tight.

When should I replace the helmet?

You should replace the helmet after any significant impact, even if damage isn't visible. Also, helmets degrade over time due to UV exposure and general wear. A general recommendation is to replace it every 3-5 years, or sooner if it shows signs of wear or has been in an accident.

Can this helmet be used for activities other than cycling?

The Giro Scamp II Helmet is specifically designed and certified for cycling. While it offers good impact protection, it may not meet the safety standards for other activities like skateboarding or skiing. Always use the helmet for its intended purpose.

How do I clean the helmet pads?

The internal pads can usually be removed. Hand wash them gently with mild soap and cool water, then allow them to air dry completely before reattaching. Do not machine wash or dry.

What does 'In-Mold construction' mean?

In-Mold construction is a manufacturing process where the helmet's outer shell is permanently fused with the impact-absorbing EPS foam liner during the molding process. This creates a stronger, lighter helmet with better ventilation compared to traditional helmet designs.

Are the reflective decals durable?

The reflective decals are designed to enhance visibility and are integrated into the helmet's finish. While generally durable for normal use, they can be subject to wear and tear over time. Keep the helmet clean to help maintain their effectiveness.

What is the Roc Loc® Jr. system?

The Roc Loc® Jr. is a fit system specifically engineered for children's helmets. It uses a large, easy-to-grip dial at the back that allows parents to quickly and precisely adjust the helmet's internal cage for a secure and comfortable fit, accommodating growth.

Troubleshooting

Helmet seems too loose after adjustment

Ensure the Roc Loc® Jr. dial is fully tightened. Double-check that the side straps are correctly positioned and adjusted. Measure your child's head circumference again to confirm you have the correct helmet size.

Helmet is uncomfortable or leaves red marks

Loosen the Roc Loc® Jr. dial slightly. Check for any twists in the internal webbing or straps. Ensure the helmet is sitting level on the head and not tilted too far forward or back.

Straps are difficult to adjust

Ensure the slider buckles on the side straps are clean and free of debris. Gently maneuver the straps through the buckles to achieve the desired fit.

Helmet doesn't seem secure on the head

Verify the helmet covers the forehead and sits level. Tighten the Roc Loc® Jr. system until snug. Ensure the chin strap is properly buckled and adjusted to prevent excessive movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Fit Adjustment: Place the helmet on your child's head, ensuring it sits level. Use the Roc Loc® Jr. dial at the rear to tighten the internal harness until it is snug but comfortable. The helmet should not shift excessively when your child shakes their head.
Strap Adjustment: Adjust the side straps so they form a 'Y' shape just below your child's ears. Buckle the chin strap and adjust it so only one or two fingers can fit between the strap and your child's chin.

Compatibility:

This helmet is designed for cycling and general recreational use for children. It complies with the US CPSC Safety Standard for Bicycle Helmets.
Ensure the chosen size (XS or S) accurately matches your child's head circumference.

Care:

Cleaning: Use a soft cloth dampened with water and mild soap to clean the shell and internal padding. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the materials.
Storage: Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing it near heat sources like radiators or in a hot car.
Inspection: Regularly inspect the helmet for any signs of damage, such as cracks, dents, or frayed straps. If the helmet has been subjected to a significant impact, it should be replaced immediately, even if no visible damage is apparent.
