FAQs
What is the size range for this helmet?
The Oxford Helio is designed for head circumferences between 52cm and 57cm.
Is this helmet suitable for road cycling or mountain biking?
It is designed for general purpose cycling and conforms to CE EN1078 standards, making it appropriate for most recreational riding.
Does the peak offer protection?
Yes, the colour-matched peak helps shield the face from sun glare and minor debris.
How do I clean the inner padding?
Most inner pads are removable; wash them gently with mild soap and warm water, then allow them to air dry completely.
When should I replace the helmet?
The helmet should be replaced immediately if it sustains a significant impact, or if the shell shows signs of deep scratching or cracking.
Troubleshooting
The helmet wobbles on the head
Adjust the rear dial fit system to tighten the internal harness and ensure the chin strap is pulled snug against the jawline.
Straps are twisting during use
Lay the helmet flat and untangle the webbing through the adjusters, ensuring the 'V' junction sits flat against the skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the perfect fit, place the helmet level on the head and turn the rear dial until the internal cradle snugs against the back of the skull. Ensure the side straps form a 'V' shape just below the ears before buckling. To maintain the helmet, clean only with mild soap and water; avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents that could damage the polycarbonate shell. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as UV exposure over time can degrade the materials. Always inspect the shell for cracks or dents after any significant impact and replace the unit if structural damage is suspected.
