FAQs

What makes the Mips® Air Node protection system beneficial?

The Mips® Air Node is a Low Friction Layer designed to reduce rotational motion transferred to the brain during angled impacts, enhancing safety.

How do I clean the Ionic+® liner?

The Ionic+® liner is removable and washable. Use mild soap and water, rinse thoroughly, and allow it to air dry completely before reattaching it to the helmet.

Is this helmet suitable for extreme downhill riding?

This is a performance-focused open-face trail helmet. While it offers high safety ratings, it is designed for trail riding. For more extreme disciplines, a full-face helmet may be more appropriate.

Can I wear my goggles with this helmet?

Yes, the one-hand adjustable visor is designed to be compatible with most goggles, allowing for flexible use.

How does the BOA® Fit System work?

The BOA® system uses a dial that you turn clockwise to tighten the helmet for a secure fit and counterclockwise to loosen it. This allows for precise, on-the-fly adjustments.

What should I do if my helmet's finish starts to peel?

Avoid exposure to aerosol sprays like bug repellent and sunscreens, as these can damage the helmet's finish. If damage occurs, consult the manufacturer's warranty information.

What sizes are available?

The helmet is available in sizes Small, Medium, and Large. Refer to the size guide for specific measurements to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or loose

Adjust the BOA® Fit System dial. Turn clockwise to tighten, counterclockwise to loosen. Fine-tune the position of the back cradle for optimal comfort.

Visor is not secure

Ensure the visor is properly aligned and secured in its adjustment points. Check for any obstructions preventing it from seating correctly.

Liner feels uncomfortable or is dirty

Remove the Ionic+® liner and wash it according to care instructions. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.

Sunglass storage is difficult to use

Practice inserting and removing your sunglasses from the designated storage area. Ensure sunglasses are compatible with the slot.
