Product Information
Full details
The Giro Isode II Road Helmet is designed for adult cyclists seeking a blend of high-end styling, lightweight construction, and professional-grade cooling in a versatile unisex package. Its primary benefit is the combination of an impact-absorbing EPS foam liner with an efficient 16-vent ventilation system, making it an excellent choice for long rides in various temperatures; however, the visor-inclusive design may be considered too casual for dedicated competitive road racers.

FAQs
Is the visor removable?
Yes, the Isode II includes a Quick Link removable visor that can be easily detached if you prefer a streamlined road aesthetic.
Can I use this helmet for commuting in the dark?
The helmet features reflective rear decals that enhance your visibility to motorists, though we always recommend using additional active bike lights.
How do I clean the interior pads?
You can hand-wash the interior pads with mild soap and cool water and air dry them completely before reattaching.
What is the weight of the helmet?
While exact weight varies by size, the Isode II is designed specifically as a lightweight construction to reduce neck strain on longer rides.
Is this helmet MIPS equipped?
This specific model utilizes standard In-Mold construction with an EPS foam liner for impact absorption.
Can I adjust the fit with one hand?
Yes, the Roc Loc Sport fit system is specifically designed to allow for one-handed adjustments on the fly.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels loose even when dial is tightened
Adjust the side strap lengths so the Y-junction sits just below your earlobes for a more stable position.
Dial adjustment is difficult to turn
Ensure no hair or debris is trapped in the gear mechanism; clean gently with a soft brush.
Helmet sits too high on the forehead
Loosen the rear dial slightly and pull the helmet forward so it sits approximately one finger-width above your eyebrows.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, place the helmet level on your head, not tilted back or forward. Turn the Roc Loc Sport dial until the fit is snug but comfortable against the back of your head. Ensure the side straps sit just below your ears to prevent shifting. For maintenance, use a damp cloth and mild soap to wipe the shell and pads. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or leaving the helmet in direct heat, such as inside a car, as extreme temperatures can degrade the EPS foam liner over time. Check the internal pads periodically for wear and ensure the strap buckles are free of debris to maintain a secure lock.
