FAQs

What does the WG11 protocol signify?

The WG11 protocol is KASK's internal, objective, and scientific standard for measuring helmet performance against rotational impacts, going beyond standard safety certifications to offer enhanced protection.

How do I clean the Kask Protone Icon helmet?

Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap for the exterior. Avoid harsh chemicals. The internal padding can typically be hand-washed separately with mild detergent and air-dried.

Is this helmet suitable for long hair?

Yes, the Protone Icon features a redesigned vertical stabilizer specifically to provide a more stable and customized fit for riders with long hair.

Can I use this helmet for mountain biking?

The Protone Icon is primarily designed and optimized for road cycling, focusing on aerodynamics and ventilation suitable for that discipline. It may not offer the coverage or features best suited for mountain biking.

How do I know if the helmet fits correctly?

A correct fit means the helmet is level on your head, covering your forehead without obstructing your vision. It should feel snug all around, with no excessive pressure points, and should not move significantly when you shake your head.

What is the warranty period for this helmet?

Please refer to Kask's official website or your point of purchase for specific warranty details, as warranty periods can vary by region and retailer.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the rear dial to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure the straps are also adjusted correctly and symmetrically.

Difficulty adjusting the fit dial.

Ensure the dial is clean. If it feels stiff, try turning it gently back and forth. The rubber over-injection should provide improved grip.

Padding feels uncomfortable.

Check that the padding is correctly installed. If discomfort persists, consider using alternative aftermarket padding designed for cycling helmets, ensuring it does not interfere with the helmet's safety structure.

Helmet slips during riding.

Re-adjust the fit dial and chin strap. Ensure the helmet is sitting correctly on your head and not too high or too low. The retention system should provide a secure hold.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Protone Icon helmet is designed for immediate use. The adjustment dial at the rear allows for precise fitting. To adjust, simply turn the dial clockwise to tighten and counter-clockwise to loosen until a snug, comfortable fit is achieved. Ensure the helmet sits level on your head, covering your forehead without obstructing vision.

Compatibility: This helmet is designed for adult cyclists and is generally compatible with most head shapes. The vertical stabilizer is specifically designed to accommodate riders with long hair.

Care: To clean the helmet, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the helmet's materials and integrity. The internal padding can often be removed and washed by hand with a mild detergent. Always allow the helmet to air dry completely before storing or using it again. Never expose the helmet to extreme heat (e.g., inside a car on a hot day) as this can compromise its structure.
