FAQs
How do I measure my head for the correct size?
Use a flexible measuring tape and wrap it around your head, about an inch above your eyebrows and around the widest part of your head. Refer to the size guide provided to determine the correct helmet size.
Can I wash the helmet?
You can wipe the outer shell with a damp cloth. The padding is removable and washable with mild soap and water. Allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
What certifications does the helmet have?
The 7iDP X2 helmet is certified to CE, EN1017, and CPSC (US) standards.
How often should I replace my helmet?
Helmets should be replaced every three to five years, or immediately after a crash, even if there are no visible signs of damage.
Can I use this helmet for road cycling?
While the 7iDP X2 helmet is designed for mountain biking, it can be used for road cycling. However, the design is optimised for off-road riding, so consider the specific needs of road cycling if this is your primary use.
How do I adjust the cradle retention system?
The cradle retention system typically has a dial or adjustment mechanism at the back of the helmet. Turning the dial tightens or loosens the cradle, providing a more secure and custom fit.
What is the purpose of the visor?
The visor helps to deflect sun, rain, and debris, and can also reduce rotational forces during a crash.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels loose or unstable.
Adjust the cradle retention system to achieve a snug fit. Ensure the straps are properly adjusted under your chin.
Helmet feels too hot or stuffy.
Ensure all vents are clear and unobstructed. Consider adjusting your riding style or taking breaks in shaded areas to improve ventilation.
Padding feels uncomfortable or causes irritation.
Ensure the padding is properly positioned. Remove and wash the padding as needed. Consider replacing the padding if it's worn or damaged.
Visor obstructs vision.
Ensure the helmet is positioned correctly on your head. If the visor continues to obstruct your vision, consider wearing the helmet slightly higher or choosing an alternative helmet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Sizing: Refer to the size guide (S/M - 54-58cm, L/XL - 58-61cm) to ensure a proper fit. Measure your head circumference to determine the correct size.
- Fit Adjustment: Use the cradle retention system to adjust the helmet for a snug and comfortable fit. The system allows for height, tilt, and circumference adjustments. The helmet should sit level on your head, covering your forehead without obstructing your vision.
- Strap Adjustment: Ensure the chin strap is properly adjusted. The straps should fit snugly under your chin, forming a 'V' shape just below your ears.
- Cleaning: The removable padding can be hand-washed with mild soap and water. Allow the padding to air dry completely before reinserting it into the helmet. Wipe the outer shell with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris.
- Compatibility: The 7iDP X2 helmet is compatible with most cycling glasses and goggles. Ensure proper fit to prevent interference or discomfort.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the helmet for any signs of damage, such as cracks or dents. If the helmet has been involved in a crash, it should be replaced, even if there are no visible signs of damage.
