FAQs

Is this helmet suitable for mountain biking?

While it features a rugged construction, it is specifically designed as a road bike helmet and lacks a visor, which is standard for most mountain bike disciplines.

Can I wear my hair in a ponytail with this helmet?

Yes, the helmet design is specifically compatible with ponytails and long hair styles.

How often should I replace my helmet?

Helmets should be replaced after any significant impact or every 3-5 years due to natural wear and degradation of materials.

What certification does the Cinder MIPS hold?

This helmet is CPSC certified for safety.

How do I clean the internal padding?

The Air-FX padding is removable and should be hand-washed in cool water with mild soap, then air-dried.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels unstable or rocks backward

Adjust the vertical position of the Roc Loc 5 cradle downward to better cup the base of your skull.

Difficulty adjusting fit while riding

Ensure the tension dial is clear of grit; if stiff, gently wipe the mechanism with a damp cloth to remove debris.

Excessive sweat buildup in padding

Remove the Air-FX padding and hand wash with mild soap to remove salt and oil buildup.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent ventilation through 26 wind tunnel vents
  • Easy-to-use one-handed fit adjustment system
  • Advanced MIPS impact protection technology
  • Lightweight and aerodynamic design
  • Ponytail compatible construction

Cons

  • No integrated visor for sun protection
  • Specific road-focused shape may not suit all head profiles
  • Padding requires periodic cleaning to maintain hygiene

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the perfect fit, place the helmet on your head and rotate the dial at the back of the Roc Loc 5 system until it feels snug but comfortable. Adjust the vertical position by sliding the rear cradle up or down until the helmet sits securely on your forehead without obstructing your vision. For care, keep the helmet clean by wiping the shell with a damp cloth and mild soap. The Air-FX padding is removable; wash it by hand in cool water with a mild detergent and air dry completely before re-installing. Always inspect the shell and straps before every ride for signs of wear, especially after any impact.
