FAQs
What does Mips® Evolve Core mean?
Mips® Evolve Core is a specific version of Mips (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) technology. It involves a low-friction layer inside the helmet that allows the helmet to slide relative to the head during angled impacts, helping to redirect rotational forces and reduce the risk of rotational brain injuries.
How do I know if the helmet fits correctly?
A properly fitting helmet should sit level on your head, about two finger-widths above your eyebrows. It should feel snug all around with no excessive pressure points. The Mips dial should be adjusted for a secure fit, and the straps should form a 'Y' below your ears with the chin strap snug enough to fit only one finger between it and your chin.
Is this helmet suitable for mountain biking?
The Isode Mips II is primarily designed for road cycling, sport riding, and commuting. While it offers good protection, it may not have the extended coverage or features typically found in helmets designed specifically for aggressive mountain biking.
How do I clean the Giro Isode Mips Helmet?
You can clean the helmet with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. For the interior padding, hand wash with mild soap and water and allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
What is the warranty period for this helmet?
Information regarding the specific warranty period is typically found on the manufacturer's official website or the product packaging. Please refer to those sources for detailed warranty terms.
Can I use this helmet if I have long hair?
Yes, the ROC LOC® Sport Fit System is designed to be ponytail compatible, allowing you to comfortably wear your hair in a ponytail while wearing the helmet.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too loose after adjustment
Ensure the ROC LOC® Sport Fit System dial is fully tightened. If still loose, check that the helmet is positioned correctly on your head and that the straps are adjusted properly to prevent slipping.
Helmet feels too tight or causes pressure points
Loosen the ROC LOC® Sport Fit System dial. Try repositioning the helmet on your head. If pressure persists, the helmet's internal shape may not be compatible with your head shape.
Straps are uncomfortable or chafe
Readjust the Y-shaped side straps to sit cleanly below the ears. Ensure the chin strap is not twisted and is adjusted to a comfortable, snug fit.
Ventilation seems inadequate
Ensure the helmet is worn level on the head, not tilted back. Check that the vents are not obstructed by hair or accessories. Remember that ventilation is relative to ambient temperature and rider effort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Fit Adjustment: Loosen the ROC LOC® Sport Fit System dial fully. Place the helmet on your head, ensuring it sits level and covers your forehead. Tighten the dial with one hand until the helmet feels snug but not overly tight. The rear dial allows for approximately 7cm of adjustment.
- Strap Adjustment: Adjust the side straps so they form a 'Y' shape just below your earlobes. The center buckle should sit flat against your chin, with enough room to fit one finger between the strap and your chin.
Compatibility:
- Ponytail Compatibility: The ROC LOC® Sport Fit System is designed to accommodate ponytails comfortably.
- General Use: Suitable for road cycling, sport riding, and commuting.
Care:
- Cleaning: Clean the helmet with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid using solvents or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the helmet's materials.
- Padding: Removable comfort padding can be hand-washed with mild soap and water. Ensure padding is completely dry before reinserting.
- Storage: Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing it in environments where it might be subjected to impact or pressure.
