FAQs

Is this helmet suitable for mountain biking?

It is well-suited for recreational off-road and light trail riding, though it is not a dedicated full-face downhill helmet.

Can I remove the peak?

Yes, the peak is detachable, allowing you to customize the helmet for a road-specific look.

How do I know what size I need?

Measure the circumference of your head just above your eyebrows. Consult the size guide for your specific model (M or L) to ensure an accurate fit.

Is the padding machine washable?

It is recommended to hand wash the padding to maintain the integrity of the microfibre material.

Does this helmet have MIPS?

No, the Altura Airstream utilizes standard in-mould construction and does not feature MIPS technology.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels unstable or rocks during movement

Tighten the rear retention dial and ensure the side strap 'Y' junctions are positioned correctly below the ears.

Internal padding smells or feels dirty

Remove the microfibre padding and hand wash with mild soapy water; allow to air dry completely before re-attaching.

Peak won't stay attached

Check the mounting points for debris and ensure the peak is snapped firmly into the designated slots on the helmet shell.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, place the helmet level on your head, ensuring it sits low on your forehead just above the eyebrows. Use the rear dial to tighten the retention system until the helmet feels secure but comfortable. Adjust the side straps so that the 'Y' junction sits just below your ears, and ensure the chin strap is snug, allowing only two fingers of space between the strap and your chin.

For care, remove the microfibre pads regularly to wash them in lukewarm water with mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents on the helmet shell, as these can degrade the material. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
