Product Information
Full details
The Lazer Z1 KinetiCore Helmet is designed for adult, unisex road cyclists seeking a high-performance, comfortable, and protective helmet. Its key benefit is advanced KinetiCore technology offering superior protection with reduced weight and less plastic. A potential caveat for some users might be the reliance on the Advanced RollSys for fit, which differs from traditional systems. This helmet is a lighter, sleeker evolution of the Z1, featuring enhanced aerodynamics, ventilation, and an improved fit system.

FAQs
What is KinetiCore technology?
KinetiCore is a revolutionary protection technology that creates a crumple zone around your head, absorbing energy from direct and rotational impacts without the need for extra straps or plastics.
How do I clean the Lazer Z1 KinetiCore Helmet?
You can clean the helmet shell with a damp cloth and mild soap. The Polygiene Biostatic™ StayFresh™ padding can typically be removed and hand-washed with cool water and mild soap, then air-dried.
Is this helmet ponytail-friendly?
Yes, the Advanced RollSys fit system and its vertical adjustment are designed to accommodate ponytails comfortably.
Can I attach an LED light to this helmet?
Yes, the helmet is compatible with specific Lazer LED lights, which can be purchased separately.
How does the Advanced RollSys differ from a standard dial system?
The Advanced RollSys uses a unique roller system that adjusts the entire cradle for a more uniform and comfortable pressure distribution around the head, rather than just tightening a rear band.
Is the Lazer Z1 KinetiCore helmet compatible with an Aeroshell?
Yes, the Z1 KinetiCore is designed to be compatible with Lazer Aeroshells for improved aerodynamics and protection from the elements. Aeroshells are sold separately.
What makes this helmet lighter than previous Z1 models?
The KinetiCore technology eliminates the need for an MIPS liner and retention cage, and the overall design has been optimized to use less plastic, resulting in a lighter helmet.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too tight or too loose
Adjust the Advanced RollSys dial at the rear. Fine-tune the vertical cradle position for a better fit.
Padding feels uncomfortable or is causing irritation
Ensure the padding is correctly installed. If necessary, remove and hand wash the padding with mild soap and water, then allow it to air dry completely before reinstallation.
Difficulty storing eyewear in docking slots
Ensure eyewear frames are of a standard size. Experiment with different angles for insertion. The slots are designed for secure, but not forceful, placement.
Straps feel stiff or uncomfortable
The antibacterial straps are designed for durability and comfort. Ensure they are adjusted correctly and not twisted. Occasional gentle cleaning can help maintain their feel.
