Product Information

Full details

The ABUS HUD-Y ACE is a stylish, feature-rich helmet specifically designed for urban cyclists who prioritize both safety and modern aesthetics in city traffic. Its standout feature is the integrated, rechargeable LED rear light that ensures visibility, coupled with a robust Multi Shell In-Mold construction for superior head protection. While it offers excellent ventilation and a secure fit, potential buyers should note that its weight of 400 grams is slightly higher than ultra-lightweight racing helmets.

FAQs

How long does the LED light battery last?

The battery provides sufficient runtime for daily urban commutes; it requires a 2-hour charge via Micro-USB to return to full capacity.

Is the visor removable?

The visor is integrated into the design for optimal protection, but it can be slid up or down depending on your current needs.

What is the IP rating of the light?

The integrated rear LED light features an IP44 rating, making it splash-proof and suitable for use in light rain.

Can this helmet be worn with glasses?

Yes, the interior design is compatible with most standard cycling eyewear.

How do I know if the size S fits me?

The size S is designed for a head circumference of 51 - 55 cm. Measure around the widest part of your head to confirm your size.

Troubleshooting

LED rear light does not turn on.

Ensure the light is fully charged for two hours via the Micro-USB port and that the magnetic contacts are clean and debris-free.

Helmet feels loose even when tightened.

Adjust the height of the internal fit system and ensure the chin strap length is properly tensioned using the Fidlock buckle adjustment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-visibility integrated LED rear light
  • Stylish and modern aesthetic for city riding
  • Excellent ventilation through ActiCage design
  • Convenient magnetic buckle for easy use
  • Accommodates various hairstyles including ponytails

Cons

  • Slightly heavier at 400g than some road-focused helmets
  • Requires periodic charging of the rear LED light
  • Limited to micro-USB charging

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure maximum safety, always adjust the Zoom Ace Urban system so the helmet sits level on your forehead. Use the rear dial to tighten the internal cage until the fit is snug but comfortable. If you have long hair, use the height adjustment to position the fit system below your ponytail.

Care instructions are straightforward: clean the outer shell with a soft cloth and mild soapy water, avoiding harsh chemicals that may degrade the polycarbonate. Periodically charge the LED rear light for two hours to ensure it remains functional. Always store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the EPS foam.
