FAQs

What is the 2Vi technology platform?

The 2Vi technology platform is an integrated system combining MIPS Air for rotational impact protection, multi-density EPS foam for impact absorption, and a variable elasticity shell to manage forces effectively, offering advanced safety.

How does the STACC ventilation system work?

The STACC system uses strategically placed internal channels and external vents to guide cooling air to the forehead and exhaust warm air, maintaining a stable and comfortable head temperature.

What size helmet should I get?

Please refer to the size guide: S/M fits 53-56cm, M/L fits 56-59cm, and L/XL fits 59-61cm head circumference.

Can I store my sunglasses in this helmet?

Yes, the helmet features integrated compatibility with secure slots on the sides for easy and safe storage of sunglasses when not in use.

Is this helmet suitable for mountain biking?

This helmet is specifically designed for road cycling, with an emphasis on aerodynamics and speed. For mountain biking, Sweet Protection offers helmets with different features suited to that discipline.

How do I clean my helmet?

Clean the helmet using mild soap and cool water with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents. Allow it to air dry completely.

What is MIPS Air?

MIPS Air is an advanced version of the Multi-directional Impact Protection System designed to be as lightweight and ventilated as possible, working in conjunction with the helmet's structure to reduce rotational forces during angled impacts.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the Occigrip dial at the rear of the helmet for a precise fit. Ensure the helmet is at the correct height on your head.

Chin strap is uncomfortable.

Readjust the strap length and position the buckle so it sits flat and does not chafe. Ensure it's snug but not restrictive.

Eyewear doesn't fit securely in the storage slots.

Ensure your eyewear is designed with arms that can slide into the helmet's integrated ports. Experiment with different angles for a secure fit.

Helmet gets too hot during rides.

While designed for ventilation, extreme conditions may still lead to heat. Ensure the helmet is positioned correctly and straps are adjusted for optimal airflow.
