Full details

FAQs

Is the rear light waterproof?

The rear light is designed to withstand typical bad weather and damp conditions encountered during urban commutes.

Can I replace the comfort pads?

The comfort pads are washable and durable; if they eventually wear out, they are designed to be removable for cleaning or replacement.

Does this helmet accommodate long hair?

Yes, the updated Zoom Spin system includes a 'Ponytail Fit' design that provides additional space for long hairstyles.

How do I charge the rear light?

The light features a magnetic, rechargeable interface that can be plugged into a standard USB charging source.

What is the insect net used for?

The integrated net prevents insects from entering through the front ventilation ports while you are riding.

Is the helmet suitable for winter riding?

Yes, the design provides good coverage, though many riders choose to pair it with a thin skull cap for extra warmth in freezing temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Rear light will not turn on

Ensure the light is fully charged and that the magnetic contacts are clean and free of debris.

Helmet feels loose on the head

Tighten the Zoom Spin dial at the rear and adjust the side strap lengths to ensure even tension.

Buckle is difficult to snap shut

Check that there are no obstructions in the magnetic FIDLOCK fastener and align it properly to snap into place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Integrated rechargeable LED rear light for enhanced safety
  • Ponytail-friendly fit system design
  • Easy-to-use magnetic buckle
  • Excellent ventilation with 16 ports
  • Durable in-mould construction

Cons

  • Not optimized for high-speed aerodynamic performance
  • Requires periodic charging for the rear light

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your helmet, adjust the Zoom Spin dial at the back until the fit is snug but comfortable around your forehead. Use the side strap sliders to ensure the V-shape sits correctly beneath your ears. For maintenance, remove the inner pads periodically to wash them by hand with mild soap and water. Keep the rear light charged via its magnetic port to ensure it remains ready for your next ride. Avoid leaving the helmet in extreme heat, such as inside a locked car, to preserve the integrity of the protective materials.
