FAQs
Is the Uvex i-vo 3D suitable for mountain biking?
Yes, it is designed for both road and mountain biking, providing excellent ventilation and a secure fit for varied terrain.
Can I install my own light on this helmet?
The helmet is specifically designed to be expandable with an optional plug-in triangle LED light from Uvex.
How do I know if the helmet is the right size?
Measure the circumference of your head. The i-vo 3D features an adjustable system, but ensure your measurement falls within the specific model's range (e.g., 52-57 cm).
Is the insect net removable?
The insect net is integrated into the helmet construction for permanent protection.
How heavy is the Uvex i-vo 3D?
The helmet is a true lightweight at just 225 grams, which helps reduce strain on longer tours.
Can I adjust the straps with one hand?
While the buckle is designed for one-handed operation, the webbing straps typically require two hands to adjust for the initial fit.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels unstable on the head
Ensure the FAS webbing is tightened evenly on both sides and the rear IAS 3.0 dial is fully adjusted to your head circumference.
Buckle is difficult to open
Check for debris inside the monomatic mechanism and ensure the strap is not twisted before attempting to click the button.
Chin strap feels uncomfortable
Adjust the positioning of the side sliders to ensure the straps lie flat against your face without pulling on the ears.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the optimal fit, first place the helmet on your head and use the rear dial of the IAS 3.0 system to adjust the width until snug. Use the height adjustment feature to ensure the helmet cradles the base of your skull correctly. Adjust the FAS webbing straps so that they form a 'Y' shape just below your ears, ensuring no slack when the monomatic buckle is engaged. The chin strap should be tight enough to be secure but loose enough to breathe comfortably. To clean the helmet, use a soft cloth with mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents that could degrade the polycarbonate shell or the EPS foam structure.
