Helmet Fitting
|
| |
The helmet should fit square on your head with the strap clips just beneath your ear.
Don't tilt the helmet too far back that it shows your forehead.
Don't tilt the helmet too far forward that it covers your eyes.
Don't tilt to either side so it uncovers one side of your head.
Don't wear a cap under the helmet as it affects the fit on your head.
