FAQs

Is this helmet suitable for long hair?

Yes, the rear adjustment system is specifically designed with a height-adjustable feature to accommodate ponytails and plaits.

Can the inner padding be machine washed?

It is recommended to wash the pads by hand in mild soap to maintain their shape and integrity.

What is the primary construction method?

The Skurb Kid uses an in-mould process that permanently bonds the impact-resistant outer shell to the energy-absorbing foam liner.

Does the adjustment wheel adjust the height as well as the circumference?

The wheel adjusts the circumference, while the rear system itself features a height adjustment to improve the fit and accommodate various hairstyles.

Is this helmet unisex?

Yes, the ABUS Skurb Kid is designed with a unisex fit and aesthetic, suitable for all children.

Troubleshooting

The helmet feels loose even after tightening the wheel

Ensure the helmet is positioned correctly on the head, not tilted too far back or forward, and re-tighten the adjustment wheel.

Straps are chafing or causing discomfort

Adjust the strap sliders below the ears to ensure they sit flat against the skin and are not twisted.

Padding has become dirty or smells

Remove the washable pads from the interior and clean them manually with mild soap; avoid high-heat drying.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable in-mould construction
  • Excellent for children with long hair
  • Simple adjustment wheel mechanism
  • Lightweight and comfortable for daily wear
  • Removable, washable padding

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic racing
  • Limited ventilation compared to sport-specific models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper setup is essential for ensuring the protective qualities of the helmet. To fit the helmet, place it on the child's head and rotate the adjustment wheel at the back until the plastic ring creates a firm but comfortable contact with the head. Adjust the side straps so that they form a 'Y' shape just below the ears, ensuring the chin strap is snug but allows for breathing and talking.

For care, remove the internal padding once it becomes soiled and wash it by hand in lukewarm water with mild soap. Allow the padding to air dry completely before reattaching. Do not use chemical cleaners or solvents on the outer shell, as these can degrade the material. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
