FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the Turnfit TS Plus system?
The Turnfit TS Plus system allows for easy, one-handed adjustment of the helmet's tension via a rear dial, ensuring a secure and customized fit for different users within the Uni-size range.
How do I know if the Uni-size helmet will fit me?
The Uni-size helmet is designed for head circumferences between 54-61 cm. It's recommended to measure your head circumference before purchasing to ensure it falls within this range for an optimal fit.
Can I attach an action camera to this helmet?
The helmet is not specifically designed with integrated mounts for action cameras. Attaching accessories not designed for the helmet could compromise its structural integrity and safety.
Is this helmet suitable for competitive cycling or racing?
The Lazer Compact Helmet is best suited for recreational, commuting, and everyday cycling. While it offers good protection, it may not meet the specific aerodynamic or advanced safety requirements of professional racing.
How often should I replace my helmet?
It is generally recommended to replace a helmet every 3-5 years, or immediately after any significant impact, even if no visible damage is present. UV exposure and general wear can degrade the materials over time.
Where is the optional LED rear light purchased?
The optional LED rear light is typically available for purchase through authorized Lazer retailers or their official online store. It is sold separately from the helmet.
What is 'in-mould construction'?
In-mould construction is a manufacturing process where the helmet's outer shell is permanently fused with the impact-absorbing EPS foam liner during the molding process. This creates a stronger, lighter, and more integrated helmet structure.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too loose or wobbly.
Tighten the Turnfit TS Plus dial at the rear of the helmet until a snug fit is achieved. Ensure the retention system is positioned low on the back of your head.
Helmet feels too tight or causes pressure points.
Loosen the Turnfit TS Plus dial. Adjust the side straps and chin strap for a more even distribution of pressure. If significant discomfort persists, the Uni-size may not be suitable.
Straps are uncomfortable or dig into the skin.
Re-adjust the side straps to form a proper 'Y' shape below the ears. Ensure the buckle is correctly positioned and the straps are not twisted.
Ventilation feels insufficient during very hot weather.
Ensure there are no obstructions blocking the vents. For prolonged use in extreme heat, consider shorter rides or planning rides for cooler parts of the day.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Adjust the Fit: Place the helmet on your head. Turn the dial on the Turnfit TS Plus system at the rear of the helmet clockwise to tighten and counter-clockwise to loosen until a snug, comfortable fit is achieved. Ensure the retention system sits low on the back of your head.
- Strap Adjustment: Adjust the side straps so they form a 'Y' shape just below your ears. Buckle the chin strap and adjust it so that no more than one finger fits between the strap and your chin.
Compatibility:
- Size: This helmet is Uni-size, designed to fit head circumferences from 54-61 cm (approximately US hat sizes 6 ¾ to 7 ⅝).
- Accessories: An optional LED rear light can be purchased separately and is designed to integrate with the helmet's rear mounting point.
Care:
- Cleaning: Clean the helmet with mild soap and water using a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the helmet's materials.
- Storage: Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Avoid storing it where it might be crushed or damaged.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the helmet for any signs of damage, such as cracks, dents, or worn straps. If any damage is found, the helmet should be replaced immediately, even if the damage is not significant.
