FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the SLID technology?

SLID technology is designed to reduce rotational energy transmission to the head during an impact, providing an extra layer of safety.

Can I remove the COOLPATH padding?

The COOLPATH system replaces traditional padding to facilitate better airflow. It is intended to be used as part of the structural ventilation design.

Is the HJC Ibex 3 suitable for mountain biking?

While it can be worn, the Ibex 3 is specifically optimized for road cycling aerodynamics and does not feature the extended rear coverage typically preferred for mountain biking.

How do I clean the interior fabric?

The interior uses Ionic+ fabric. It is recommended to hand wash the pads gently with mild detergent and let them air dry completely before reinstallation.

Does the helmet come with a storage bag?

Yes, a protective storage bag is included to help protect the helmet from dust and minor scratches when stored.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels unstable or moves on the head

Ensure the rear micro-dial is adjusted correctly and that the occipital cradle is positioned firmly at the base of your skull.

Sunglasses are slipping out of the holder

Ensure the arms of your glasses are fully inserted into the designated ventilation ports and that they are compatible with the helmet's specific channel spacing.

Inner pads are losing their shape

Replace the worn pads with the spare set included in the original packaging.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Advanced automatic fitting with micro-adjustment
Excellent cooling via COOLPATH technology
Wind-tunnel tested aerodynamic profile
Lightweight construction with carbon reinforcement
Sophisticated safety features including SLID

Cons

High-performance design is optimized for road cycling only
Premium feature set may be overkill for casual commuting
Requires specific care to maintain the integrity of the inner padding system

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a proper fit, first loosen the 11-step micro-adjustment dial fully. Place the helmet on your head and allow the SELFIT PRO system to find its natural resting position. Once positioned, use the micro-dial to tighten the retention system until secure but comfortable. Ensure the straps are flat against your skin and the Y-junction sits just below your earlobes.

Care Instructions:

Use the provided storage bag when the helmet is not in use to prevent scuffing.
The Ionic+ pads are removable; hand wash them periodically in mild soap and water, then air dry.
Regularly check the helmet shell for cracks or impact marks, especially after any drop or minor collision.
Use the included spare pads if the original set begins to show wear over extended use.
