Full details

FAQs

What is MIPS-Evolve® and why is it important?

MIPS-Evolve® is a rotational management system integrated into the helmet's fit system. It is designed to reduce rotational forces that can be transmitted to the brain during angled impacts, potentially lowering the risk of certain head injuries.

How long does the integrated LED light last on a charge?

The integrated MET Rear LED light offers up to 60 hours of life, depending on the mode used.

Can I use this helmet for competitive racing?

While the helmet offers excellent protection and features, its design is optimized for versatility across commuting and trail riding. For pure road racing, specialized helmets might offer a more aerodynamic profile.

How do I clean the helmet and its pads?

The comfort pads are hand washable in cold water with mild soap. The helmet shell and straps can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What is the difference between this MIPS version and non-MIPS versions?

The MIPS version includes the MIPS-Evolve® rotational management system for added protection against angled impacts, while non-MIPS versions do not have this specific technology.

Does the helmet come in different sizes?

Yes, the MET Crossover MIPS Helmet is available in two sizes: M (52-59cm) and XL (60-64cm).

Is the visor easily detachable for different riding styles?

Yes, the visor features hidden anchors and is designed for easy removal, allowing you to switch between a trail-ready look with the visor and a sleeker urban style without it.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels loose or unstable

Readjust the MET Safe-T Sport Fit System dial and ensure the straps are properly tensioned and positioned.

LED light not functioning

Check if the LED light is charged. Refer to the charging instructions and ensure the connection is secure.

Discomfort from pressure points

Ensure the 360° head belt is adjusted correctly and the helmet is the right size. The refined internal shape should minimize pressure points.

Visor does not attach securely

Ensure the visor and helmet anchors are clean and properly aligned before attempting to attach. Check for any debris that might be obstructing the connection.
