FAQs

How do I determine my size?

Measure the circumference of your head just above your eyebrows. Use the result to choose between Small (51-56cm), Medium (55-59cm), or Large (58-63cm).

Does this helmet include padding?

The Valeco 2.0 uses COOLPATH technology instead of traditional inner padding to improve cooling and airflow.

How do I clean the helmet?

Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid using solvents or heavy chemical cleaners that may damage the helmet's shell integrity.

Can I adjust the fit manually?

The SELFIT system is designed for automatic self-adjustment, which provides a consistent fit without the need for manual dial adjustments.

Is the reflective sticker replaceable?

The reflective sticker is intended as a safety feature; for best visibility, keep it clean and ensure it is not covered by stickers or other accessories.

Is this helmet suitable for triathlon or time trials?

While the helmet is wind-tunnel tested for aerodynamics, it is primarily categorized as a road helmet suitable for a wide range of cycling disciplines.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels loose during rides

Ensure the occipital cradle is properly seated at the base of your skull and verify that your head measurement falls within the designated size range.

Difficulty integrating sunglasses or goggles

Utilize the integrated goggle mount design to ensure arms do not conflict with the helmet's internal structure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior ventilation due to COOLPATH technology
  • Self-adjusting fit provides constant security
  • Lightweight and aerodynamic design
  • Includes a convenient protective storage bag
  • Robust construction for enhanced protection

Cons

  • Fit is not manually adjustable in the same way as traditional dial systems
  • Sizing must be precise due to the specific fit architecture
  • Padding profile differs from standard foam-lined helmets

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper function, measure your head circumference accurately before selection: Small (51-56cm), Medium (55-59cm), and Large (58-63cm). When putting on the helmet, the SELFIT system will automatically engage; ensure the occipital cradle is positioned correctly at the base of the skull. To maintain the helmet, wipe the outer shell with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals that can degrade the polycarbonate shell. Store the helmet in the provided bag when not in use to prevent surface scratches and structural impact. Always check the strap splitters for even tension before your ride.
