FAQs
How do I adjust the fit with the Airfit® system?
Locate the inflation pump, usually on the lower front of the helmet. Squeeze the pump repeatedly to inflate the cheek pads for a custom, snug fit. To deflate, press the release valve.
Can I use the helmet with prescription glasses?
Yes, the wide eye-opening and design are intended to accommodate most goggle sizes and brands, which typically includes space for glasses. However, the fit may vary depending on the glasses frame.
How do I remove the main helmet shield?
The shield can be removed by loosening the visor screws by hand. For quicker changes, especially when switching to goggles, the tool-free system allows for easy detachment.
Is the helmet suitable for all weather conditions?
The helmet is designed for versatility. The SpeedView™ sun visor helps with changing light, and the shield offers protection. For extreme cold or wet conditions, additional accessories like anti-fog inserts or breath boxes may enhance comfort and performance.
What is the Exolon® shield made of?
The Exolon® shield is made of a special shatterproof material designed for strength and aerodynamic performance, minimizing turbulence at high speeds.
How should I clean the interior liner?
The comfort liner is usually removable. Consult the product manual for specific washing instructions, but generally, it can be hand-washed with mild soap and cool water and air-dried completely before reinsertion.
What does 'Feat' in the product title signify?
'Feat' likely refers to the featured or special edition status of this specific model, often indicating a unique colorway or graphics package, as seen with the 'Red' variant.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too tight or loose.
Adjust the fit using the Airfit® inner shell inflation system. Press the inflation button for a tighter fit or use the release valve for a looser fit. Ensure cheek pads are correctly seated.
Shield fogs up.
Ensure the Exolon® shield's anti-fog coating is clean. Avoid touching the inside of the shield. For severe conditions, consider a Pinlock insert if compatible, or ensure proper ventilation is active.
Visor screws are difficult to loosen/tighten.
Ensure screws are clean and free of debris. If they become stiff, a small amount of appropriate lubricant might help, but use sparingly. Always hand-tighten to avoid cross-threading.
Cheek pads are difficult to remove for cleaning or in an emergency.
Locate the red emergency release tabs. Pull these tabs firmly downwards to release the cheek pads. Ensure you are familiar with this process before needing it in an emergency.
