Full details
The Altura Airstream Helmet is an ideal choice for daily commuters, road cyclists, and recreational off-road riders looking for a balance of safety and ventilation. Featuring an in-mould construction and a highly adjustable fit system, it provides robust impact protection without weighing you down, though it lacks the advanced MIPS rotational impact protection found in high-end race helmets.

FAQs
Is the Altura Airstream suitable for mountain biking?
It is well-suited for recreational off-road and light trail riding, though it is not a full-face helmet designed for aggressive downhill riding.
How do I know which size to pick?
Measure the circumference of your head just above the eyebrows. Refer to your specific regional size chart to ensure a proper match with the M or L sizing.
Are the reflective elements visible from all angles?
The reflective straps and detailing are placed to maximize visibility for oncoming and following traffic.
Can I replace the internal pads?
Yes, the pads are removable. If they wear out over time, you can clean them or seek compatible replacement pads from Altura.
Does this helmet come with a visor?
It comes with a detachable peak which functions as a visor to block sun and debris.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels loose or wobbles on the head
Adjust the rear dial fit system and ensure the chin strap is tightened to eliminate slack.
Padding feels dirty or sweaty
Remove the internal microfibre padding, hand wash in cold water, and air dry before reinstalling.
Difficulty attaching or removing the peak
Gently pull the peak mounting points away from the helmet shell; avoid using tools that might scratch the plastic.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, adjust the rear dial system until the helmet sits snugly but comfortably on your head. The straps should sit just below your ears with no slack when the buckle is closed. To clean the helmet, use a damp cloth and mild soapy water on the shell; for the internal padding, unclip the microfibre pads and hand wash them with cold water, allowing them to air dry completely before reattaching. Do not use strong detergents or chemicals, as these can degrade the integrity of the shell materials.
