FAQs
What is the primary function of Mips?
Mips (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) is designed to reduce rotational forces to the brain during specific angled impacts.
Can I use this helmet for mountain biking?
While it is designed for road and sport use, it is best suited for paved surfaces. It lacks the extended rear coverage typically found in dedicated mountain bike helmets.
How do I know if the helmet fits correctly?
The helmet should sit level on your forehead, and the fit system should feel secure without pinching. There should be minimal movement when you shake your head side to side.
Is the padding removable for washing?
Yes, most internal padding in Giro helmets is removable and can be hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried.
Does this helmet have a visor?
The Isode Mips II is a dedicated road-style helmet and does not come with a visor.
How often should I replace my helmet?
Giro recommends replacing any helmet that has been involved in a crash or every three to five years depending on frequency of use and condition.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels unstable on the head
Adjust the rear dial fit system and ensure the chin strap is tensioned correctly to prevent fore-and-aft movement.
Difficulty turning the dial adjustment
Check the rear fit system for any debris or grit and clear it; if the dial remains stiff, ensure the strap anchors are not obstructed.
Pros and Cons

- Limited to road/sport usage

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve a proper fit, loosen the rear dial completely, place the helmet level on your head, and tighten the `Roc Loc Sport` dial until it feels snug but not constricting. Ensure the side straps form a 'Y' shape just below your ears. For care, clean the helmet using only a soft cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate shell or the foam liner. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent degradation of the materials.
