FAQs
Does this helmet meet safety certifications?
Yes, it complies with U.S. CPSC Safety Standard for Bicycle Helmets for Persons Age 5 and Older, as well as CE EN 1078 and AS/NZS2063 standards.
What is Mips technology?
Mips stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System, a low-friction layer inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational motion transferred to the brain during an impact.
Can I replace the visor?
The visor is integrated into the design. We recommend checking with Smith support if the visor is damaged.
How do I measure my child's head for this helmet?
Measure the circumference of the head about one inch above the eyebrows using a soft tape measure.
Is this helmet suitable for motorized vehicles?
No, this helmet is designed specifically for bicycle riding and should not be used for motorized vehicles or high-speed powersports.
Troubleshooting
The helmet wobbles on the child's head.
Tighten the rear dial fit system and ensure the side strap 'V' junctions are positioned correctly below the ears.
The helmet feels too heavy or uncomfortable.
Ensure the fit system is not over-tightened and that the interior padding is properly seated inside the shell.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the helmet, loosen the rear dial fit system completely before placing it on the rider's head. Once positioned, turn the dial until the helmet feels snug but comfortable. The straps should form a 'V' shape just below the ears, and the chin buckle should be secure enough to prevent the helmet from shifting. For care, clean the shell with mild soap and water only; avoid harsh chemicals or solvents that can damage the helmet's structural integrity. Regularly inspect the EPS foam liner for dents or cracks, and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
