VUAE ROAD CYCLING HELMET|BLACK
SKU :Regular price Dhs. 349.00
VUAE cycling helmets conform to either the EN 1078 safety standard or the CPSC Safety Standard.
Helmets provide the best protection against injury, especially in competition. Wearing a helmet can prevent about 85% of head injuries from bike crashes. However, a helmet will only protect when it fits well. Get in the habit of wearing a helmet every time you ride.
CHOOSING A HELMET
Choose a helmet that fits safety standards. Look for a consumer product safety sticker inside the helmet. Never wear a helmet that is cracked, broken, or has been in a crash. Used helmets may have cracks you cannot see. Older helmets may not meet current safety standards.TWEAKING HELMET FIT
Helmets come with fit pads to help ensure a proper fit. Use the pads where there is space at the front, back, and/or sides of the helmet to get a snug fit. Some models have adjustable retention straps to get an even better fit. Move pads around to touch your head evenly all the way around.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
This headgear is designed to absorb the energy of a blow by partial destruction or damage. Even though such damage may not be visible, the helmet should be destroyed or replaced if it is involved in an injury-related fall. Unfortunately, some accidents result in head injuries that cannot be prevented by ANY helmet. Depending on the type of impact even very low speeds can result in a serious head injury or fatality. Always ride with extreme caution and be sure to read this manual thoroughly.
QUICK-FIT CHECK
3-point quick and easy tests for a proper helmet fit.
1. EYES
Helmets sit level on your head and rest low on the forehead, one to two finger widths above the eyebrows. You should be able to see the very edge of their helmet by looking up with your eyes only while keeping your head still. A helmet pushed up too high will not protect the face or head well in a fall or crash.
2. EARS
Straps are even and form a "Y" under each earlobe. The straps are snug against the head.
3. MOUTH
The buckled chin strap is loose enough so that you can breathe. There should be enough room so you can insert the finger between the buckle and chin, but tight enough that if you open your mouth, you can feel the helmet pull down on top.
Retention straps and foam pads may be adjusted for a more comfortable fit.
