FAQs

Does the Ibex 3 include extra pads?

Yes, the helmet comes with spare padding sets to ensure long-term comfort and hygiene.

Can I remove the COOLPATH system?

The COOLPATH system is an integral part of the interior airflow design and is intended to be used in place of traditional padding.

Is the helmet suitable for gravel riding?

While optimized for road performance, its lightweight and ventilation features make it an excellent choice for gravel racing and high-speed mixed-surface riding.

How does SLID technology work?

SLID technology uses a low-friction layer that allows the helmet shell to move slightly relative to the head during an impact, helping to dissipate rotational force.

What is the benefit of Ionic+ fabric?

Ionic+ fabric is woven with silver ions, which provides natural anti-microbial properties to help control odor and wick moisture away during intense rides.

Is the carry bag machine washable?

It is recommended to hand wash the carry bag in cold water to maintain the integrity of the fabric and seams.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels loose even when dial is tightened

Ensure the rear cradle is sitting low enough on the base of your skull and verify that the strap tension is balanced on both sides.

Dial mechanism feels stiff

Clean the dial area gently with a soft brush or compressed air to remove accumulated sweat salts or road debris.

Sunglasses do not fit securely in holder

The holder is designed for standard cycling eyewear; ensure you are pushing the arms firmly into the designated vents until they click.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Ibex 3, first ensure the SELFIT PRO system is relaxed before placing the helmet on your head. Once positioned, the automatic mechanism will engage to secure the fit. Fine-tune the 11-step micro-dial to achieve a snug, comfortable tension that prevents movement without creating pressure points. When storing, always use the included protective carry bag to prevent scratching the finish. To care for your helmet, remove the washable Ionic+ padding periodically to wash by hand with mild soap and water. Ensure the shell remains free of heavy chemical cleaners, which can compromise the structural integrity of the EPS foam. Periodically check the reflective straps for fraying and ensure the dial mechanism remains free of grit or salt buildup from heavy sweating.
