How does the helmet retention system work?

Troubleshooting
Backpack feels unstable while riding
Readjust the shoulder straps and sternum strap. Ensure the harness is tightened correctly for your body type and riding posture.
Phone pocket is difficult to access
Ensure the phone is placed correctly within the pocket and that no other items are obstructing access. The pocket is designed for quick checks, not extensive use.
Helmet retention cord feels loose
Double-check that the helmet straps are securely threaded through the cord and that the cord itself is taut against the helmet.
Reflective details are not visible
Reflective details are designed for low-light conditions and vehicle headlights. Their visibility depends on the presence of an external light source.
