Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the retention system using the dial or straps. Re-measure head circumference to confirm the correct size is being used. Ensure the helmet is positioned correctly on the head.

Padding feels uncomfortable

Ensure padding is correctly installed. Some helmets have removable and washable padding; check product specifications. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different size or fit adjustment.

Straps are difficult to adjust

Familiarize yourself with the buckle and slider mechanisms. Ensure they are clean and free from debris. Refer to the helmet's manual for specific strap adjustment guidance.
