Product Information

Full details

The Fox Proframe Solid Full Face Mountain Bike Helmet is designed for aggressive trail, enduro, and all-mountain riders seeking a balance of protection and breathability. Its key benefit is offering downhill-certified safety in a lightweight, well-ventilated package. A potential caveat is its full-face design, which may be warmer for less demanding rides.

FAQs

What certifications does the Fox Proframe Solid helmet have?

The helmet meets ASTM-F1952 Downhill MTB certification and the NTA-8776 E-bike helmet certification standard.

What is the Mips Protection System?

Mips is a low-friction layer inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational energy transferred to the brain during angled impacts.

How do I clean the helmet?

Use mild soap and cool water to clean the helmet's exterior and pads. Allow pads to air dry completely before reinserting.

Can I use this helmet for everyday trail riding, not just aggressive downhill?

Yes, the helmet is designed for aggressive trail, enduro, and all-mountain riding, offering a balance of protection and ventilation suitable for varied riding.

Does the helmet come with a GoPro mount?

Yes, a removable under-visor GoPro mount is included with the helmet.

How do I adjust the visor?

The visor has three positions and can be adjusted by loosening its screws, setting the desired position, and then retightening the screws.

What should I do if the helmet doesn't fit perfectly?

The helmet includes an additional pad set. Try swapping or repositioning these pads to achieve a snug and comfortable custom fit.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too loose

Utilize the included additional pad set to fine-tune the fit. Ensure all pads are correctly placed.

Visor is loose or wobbly

Tighten the screws securing the visor. Do not overtighten, but ensure it is firm.

Difficulty fitting goggles

Adjust the helmet's visor to its highest position. Ensure your goggles are designed for MTB use and test fit before long rides.

Helmet feels warm during climbs

Ensure all ventilation ports are clear of debris. Consider removing the helmet during very slow climbs if necessary, but be aware of reduced protection.
