FAQs
What is the WG11 protocol?
The WG11 protocol is Kask's internal testing standard designed to measure a helmet's performance against rotational impacts, which are common in real-world cycling accidents.
Is the inner padding machine washable?
It is recommended to hand wash the Coolmax padding with mild soap to maintain the integrity of the fibers.
Can I use this helmet for mountain biking?
While it is technically a helmet, the Protone Icon is specifically designed for road cycling aerodynamics and does not feature the added visor or deep rear-coverage typical of mountain bike helmets.
Does the helmet come in different sizes?
Yes, it is available in various sizes; please check the size guide based on your head circumference to ensure a proper fit.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
The helmet should remain stable even when you shake your head without the chin strap fastened; if it shifts, you need to adjust the retention system.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels unstable on the head
Adjust the vertical stabilizer on the OCTOFIT+ system to sit lower on the occipital bone and tighten the dial.
Padding smells or stays wet
Remove the Coolmax pads and wash them with a gentle detergent, ensuring they are fully air-dried before re-attachment.
Dial is difficult to turn
Check for debris or dirt around the adjustment mechanism and gently wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Superior aerodynamic profile for speed
- Excellent ventilation for long rides
- Highly adjustable OCTOFIT+ system
- Easy-to-clean removable padding
- Advanced rotational impact safety testing
Cons
- Premium price point reflecting high-end materials
- Not intended for non-road cycling environments
- May require a specific head shape for maximum comfort
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, unlock the rear dial of the OCTOFIT+ system before placing the helmet on your head. Once positioned correctly—roughly two finger-widths above your eyebrows—tighten the dial until it sits securely but comfortably against your skull. Ensure the chin strap is tensioned so that it stays flat against the skin without digging in.
For care, remove the Coolmax padding periodically to hand wash in lukewarm water with mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely before re-inserting. Avoid exposing the helmet to extreme heat or chemical cleaners, as these can compromise the integrity of the shell and foam. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
