FAQs
What is the Mips® Brain Protection System?
Mips® is a leading slip-plane inside the helmet designed to help reduce rotational accelerations to the head and brain when you get an angled impact to the head. It adds a low-friction layer between the helmet and your head.
How do I determine if the universal size fits me?
The helmet features a 3-point side adjustment and a one-handed micro adjustment fit system. Try it on, adjust the dial at the back, and ensure the side straps are properly positioned. The helmet should feel snug but not uncomfortably tight, and should not shift significantly when you move your head.
What does the Helmet Crash Replacement Scheme offer?
The scheme offers a 50% discount on a new replacement helmet if your Endura helmet is damaged in a crash. Contact Endura or an authorized dealer for details on how to claim.
Can I remove the visor for different riding conditions?
Yes, the visor is designed to be removable. This allows you to adapt the helmet for different weather or riding preferences, such as removing it for better visibility in certain situations.
What is the benefit of the recycled EPS content?
Using at least 50% post-consumer recycled polystyrene in the EPS liner reduces the environmental impact by utilizing materials that have already been produced, diverting waste from landfills.
How often should I replace my helmet?
Helmets should typically be replaced every 3-5 years, or immediately after any significant impact, even if no damage is visible. This is because the EPS foam can degrade over time and its protective properties are compromised after an impact.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too loose or wobbly
Adjust the rear micro-dial for a tighter fit. Ensure the side straps are correctly positioned below the ears and the chin strap is securely fastened.
Helmet feels too tight or causes pressure points
Loosen the rear micro-dial. Readjust the side straps. Ensure the helmet is sitting level on your head and not tilted too far forward or back.
Visor is difficult to attach/remove
Ensure you are aligning the visor correctly with the designated slots or attachment points. Apply gentle, firm pressure. Refer to product imagery if unsure.
Pads are not drying effectively
Remove the pads from the helmet and allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Avoid using heat sources.
