FAQs

What makes the Abus AirBreaker 2.0 MIPS suitable for racing?

Its combination of ultra-low weight, aerodynamic design with the Aero Blade™, and advanced ventilation makes it ideal for competitive cyclists aiming for peak performance.

How does the Mips system enhance safety?

The integrated Mips padding is designed to reduce rotational forces on the head during angled impacts, offering an additional layer of protection in the event of a fall.

Can I wear my sunglasses with this helmet?

Yes, the helmet features optimized eyewear attachment points with rubber grips to securely hold your sunglasses when not in use.

Is this helmet suitable for riders with long hair?

Yes, the helmet includes a ponytail opening to accommodate long hair, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit during rides.

How do I clean the helmet?

The helmet's padding is removable and washable by hand. The outer shell should be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What is the purpose of the Aero Blade™?

The Aero Blade™ is positioned at the upper rear of the helmet to improve airflow and significantly reduce air resistance, contributing to aerodynamic efficiency.

How durable is the helmet?

The helmet is constructed using an In-Mold process, assembling the outer and inner shells for increased durability. The Acti Cage™ structure with carbon reinforcement further enhances its strength and stability.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the Zoom Spin system dial at the rear for a more precise fit. Ensure the retention system is properly engaged.

Chin strap closure is difficult to use

Ensure the Fidlock magnetic closure is properly aligned before attempting to connect. Keep the mechanism clean from dirt or debris.

Padding feels uncomfortable or is not drying properly

Ensure padding is washed according to care instructions and fully air-dried. Check for proper ventilation channel alignment when reinserting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:
