Our helmets feature 3 interior cooling channels that run from front to back. For comfort and fit, they also feature removable liners, making them easier to wash. Pictures here!
A snug fit is key to making sure your helmet keeps you safe. Be sure to adjust the straps so that they fit comfortably under your chin. If the helmet is too loose, turn the dial clockwise on the fit system in the back to tighten. If it’s too tight, turn the dial counterclockwise to loosen. Your helmet should not move back and forth or side to side when it’s properly fitted.
The PopLock is the removable magnetic logo on the back right of the helmet. Pop it out, throw your bike lock through it, and you can conveniently and securely lock your helmet to your bike so you don’t have to take it with you everywhere you go. If your helmet is ever stolen while locked to your bike, we’ll replace it for free.
The PopLock is 1” in diameter and is designed to fit the majority of locks on the market (U-locks, chain locks, and cable locks).
In the US: CPSC and ASTM F1492 certified for bicycling, roller and in-line skating, kick scooter riding, long-boarding, and skateboarding. In Europe: EN 1078 certified for bicycling, skateboarding, and roller skating. Our helmets' certifications also cover e-bicycles and e-skateboards (outside of the Netherlands).

We hope you’re never in an accident, but if you’re ever involved in one and your helmet is damaged, let us know and we’ll replace your helmet for free.

You can clean your helmet’s exterior shell, interior pads, and fit system with mild soap and water, but don’t submerge it.
We recommend keeping your helmet out of direct sunlight and in a dry, temperate place. To avoid heat damage, don’t store your helmet in a dark vehicle or near a heat source.
The general recommendation is to replace your helmet every 3 years. If you’re ever in an accident and the helmet was impacted, replace it immediately.

We recommend gently cleaning the monogram with a cloth dipped in mild soap and water. Do not submerge any part of your helmet for cleaning.
Our monograms are made of industrial-grade reflective vinyl or 22 karat gold leaf and are weather-resistant and permanent. However, just like your helmet, the monogram is subject to normal wear from regular riding and exposure to the elements.
