Product Information
Full details
The Abus Smooty 2.0 is a specialized toddler cycling helmet designed specifically for children riding in rear-mounted child seats. Its standout benefit is a unique flattened rear profile that allows the child to sit upright comfortably without their head being pushed forward, protecting the neck and spine. While it offers superior comfort and essential visibility features, it is strictly intended for children and may be outgrown quickly as they transition to larger bike sizes.

FAQs
Can this helmet be used for children cycling on their own bikes?
Yes, it provides the same level of protection as a standard helmet, though the flat back is specifically optimized for child seats.
How do I know when the helmet is too small?
If the adjustment dial is at its maximum setting and the helmet no longer sits level on the forehead, it is time to size up.
Is the visor removable?
The Abus Smooty 2.0 design is integrated for safety; the visor is not intended to be removed.
Does this helmet come with extra padding?
The helmet comes with pre-installed padding designed for comfort and sweat absorption.
Can the fly nets be removed for cleaning?
No, the fly nets are foamed-in during the manufacturing process for durability and cannot be removed.
How long should I keep this helmet?
It is recommended to replace any bike helmet after any significant impact or every 3-5 years due to material fatigue.
Troubleshooting
The helmet shifts around on the child's head
Adjust the rear dial on the Zoom Evo Kids system to tighten the full ring for a more secure fit.
Straps seem too loose or uneven
Re-adjust the side strap sliders so the meeting point is positioned directly under the earlobes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, place the helmet level on the child's head. Rotate the rear dial of the Zoom Evo Kids system until the full ring snugly grips the circumference of the head. Adjust the side straps so they form a 'V' shape just below the ears, and ensure the chin buckle snaps securely without pinching the skin.
For care, wipe the outer shell with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using chemical cleaners or solvents, as these can degrade the shell material. The helmet should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Regularly check the straps for signs of wear or fraying.
