FAQs
What age range is the Lazer Finch KinetiCore helmet designed for?
The helmet is designed for youth riders and features a uni-size design intended to fit a wide range of head shapes and sizes within that demographic.
How do I adjust the fit of the helmet?
The helmet uses the Lazer TurnSys system. Simply turn the dial located at the rear of the helmet clockwise to tighten and counter-clockwise to loosen for a precise fit.
Can I attach an LED light to this helmet?
Yes, the helmet is compatible with the Universal Lazer LED light, which can be mounted directly to the rear of the helmet for enhanced visibility.
Is the helmet designed to be worn with glasses?
Yes, the helmet includes specific recesses designed to prevent pressure points when wearing sunglass arms.
How is this helmet lighter than previous models?
The Finch KinetiCore is 12% lighter than the Lazer Chiru MIPS M CE due to reduced plastic construction and the integration of KinetiCore technology, which provides protection without the need for a plastic MIPS layer.
What is the weight of the helmet?
The Lazer Finch KinetiCore helmet weighs approximately 330 grams.
How should I clean my helmet?
Clean the helmet using a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth. Allow it to air dry completely. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too loose or wobbly
Ensure the TurnSys dial is fully tightened. Check that the side straps are adjusted correctly to form a 'Y' shape below the ears and that the chin buckle is secured.
Straps are causing discomfort or irritation
Readjust the side straps to ensure they lie flat against the head and form a 'Y' below the ears. Check the chin buckle for proper tightness – it should be snug but not digging in.
Sunglass arms press uncomfortably against the head
Ensure the sunglasses are positioned correctly within the helmet's eyewear-friendly recesses. Try slightly adjusting the helmet's position on your head or the angle of the sunglass arms.
Helmet does not feel secure during intense riding
Double-check the fit using the TurnSys system and strap adjustments. Ensure the helmet is level on the head and covers the temples and back of the head adequately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

- Storage: Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing it where it could be crushed or damaged.
