FAQs

What makes the 3K Airframe technology unique?

The 3K Airframe utilizes an integrated carbon wing structure that removes traditional EPS foam from the internal frame. This creates continuous internal air channels, dramatically improving airflow from front to back without compromising structural integrity.

How does the MIPS Air+ system enhance safety?

MIPS Air+ is an advanced rotational impact protection system. Combined with the helmet's new construction, it significantly improves safety test results, offering better protection against angled impacts compared to standard helmets.

Is this helmet suitable for all types of cycling?

While optimized for road cycling performance, its advanced ventilation and safety features make it highly suitable for ambitious cyclists in various disciplines where heat management and protection are critical. It may be more advanced than typically needed for casual commuting.

How much more airflow does this helmet provide?

The MET Trenta 3K Carbon Airframe offers 16% more airflow than its previous generation, thanks to its 24 optimized vents and the advanced Airframe design.

Can I store my cycling glasses on the helmet?

Yes, the helmet features an integrated sunglasses port designed to securely hold your eyewear when not in use.

How do I clean the helmet and its padding?

Clean the helmet exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. The internal padding can be removed and hand-washed with cold water and mild soap. Allow all components to air dry completely.

What is the warranty period for this helmet?

Please refer to the manufacturer's warranty documentation for specific details on the warranty period and coverage.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or loose.

Adjust the Safe-T Orbital fit system using the rear dial for circumference and the vertical adjustment for cradle height. Ensure straps are properly tensioned.

Straps are uncomfortable or not sitting correctly.

Readjust the strap anchors so they form a flat 'V' shape under each earlobe. Ensure the center strap is positioned comfortably below the chin.

Padding feels insufficient or is causing irritation.

Ensure the internal padding is correctly installed and clean. If irritation persists, consider if the helmet size and shape are optimal for your head.

Sunglasses do not fit securely in the port.

Ensure the sunglasses are designed to fit standard helmet ports. Try different angles or positions within the port for a more secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The MET Trenta 3K Carbon Airframe helmet is designed for immediate use. Ensure the Safe-T Orbital fit system is adjusted correctly for your head shape. Use the rear dial to fine-tune the circumference and the vertical adjustment to set the height of the cradle. Straps should be adjusted so they form a flat 'V' shape under the earlobes, with the center strap meeting just below the chin.

Compatibility: This helmet is compatible with most standard cycling eyewear. The integrated sunglasses port is designed for secure storage.

Care: To clean the helmet, use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the helmet's materials. The internal padding is typically removable and can be hand-washed with cold water and mild soap. Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling or storing. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
