FAQs

What is MIPS and why is it important?

MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) is a safety feature designed to reduce rotational forces on the brain during angled impacts, providing an extra layer of protection beyond standard impact absorption.

How do I clean the helmet?

Clean the helmet using a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Let it air dry completely.

Is this helmet suitable for children?

No, this helmet is designed for adults and features an adjustment system tailored for adult head sizes.

Can I wear a cap under the helmet?

While the helmet is designed for a snug fit, a thin cycling cap might fit under it, though it could affect the fit and ventilation. The ponytail compatibility feature is designed to accommodate longer hair.

How do I adjust the ponytail compatibility?

The height-adjustable system at the back of the helmet can be lowered to create more space for a ponytail.

What is the warranty period for this helmet?

Please refer to the product packaging or ABUS official website for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and retailer.

How does the Zoom Ace system work?

The Zoom Ace system is a dial-based mechanism at the rear of the helmet that allows for fine-tuning the circumference fit for a secure and personalized feel.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the Zoom Ace dial for a precise fit. Ensure the straps are correctly positioned below your ears and tightened at the chin.

Straps are uncomfortable or flap excessively

Re-adjust the Flowstraps to lie flat against the face. Ensure the length is optimized to prevent flapping while maintaining comfort.

Ventilation feels insufficient

Ensure that the air vents are not blocked by hair or accessories. For very hot conditions, consider the limitations of any helmet's ventilation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Adjust the Zoom Ace system using the rear wheel to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure the helmet sits level on your head.
  2. Modify the height of the rear adjustment system if you wear a ponytail.
  3. Adjust the Flowstraps so they form a 'V' shape just below your earlobes, meeting at the chin strap.

Compatibility:

This helmet is designed for adult cyclists and is compatible with most head shapes. The ponytail-compatible system accommodates various hair styles. It is suitable for road biking, leisure cycling, and gravel biking.

Care:

Clean the helmet with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents, as they can damage the materials. Allow the helmet to air dry completely. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
