The Mongoose Urban Helmet is engineered to provide reliable protection and comfort during various wheeled activities. Its tough protective shell acts as the primary defense against impacts, offering peace of mind whether you're navigating urban streets on a scooter, hitting the skate park on a BMX, or cruising on a skateboard.
For active users, the 11 air vents are a significant benefit, promoting consistent airflow to reduce heat buildup and sweat, keeping your head cooler and more comfortable even during extended sessions or warmer weather. The comfortable internal pad system, coupled with the extra pads, allows for a highly customized fit. This is crucial for preventing helmet wobble and ensuring that the helmet stays securely in place during dynamic movements or potential falls.
The adjustable retention device further enhances security, allowing users to fine-tune the fit for optimal stability. This ensures the helmet performs its protective function effectively without being a distraction. Its multi-purpose design truly shines, making it a practical choice for individuals who engage in several different sports, eliminating the need for multiple specialized helmets. For example, a rider transitioning from a morning commute on a hybrid bike to an afternoon at the skate park will find this helmet equally suitable and protective.
Select Correct Size: Measure your head circumference to ensure you choose either the Medium (56-59cm) or Large (60-62cm) helmet for the most secure and protective fit. A helmet that is too loose or too tight offers inadequate protection.
Adjust Internal Pads: Place the helmet on your head. If there are gaps or areas of pressure, experiment with the included extra pads. These can be swapped or added to achieve a snug, comfortable, and stable fit without pressure points.
Secure Retention Device: Adjust the strap buckle and the adjustable retention device at the back of the helmet. The helmet should sit level on your head, covering your forehead, and should not move excessively when you shake your head. The straps should form a 'V' shape under your ears and be snug but comfortable under your chin, allowing you to breathe and speak freely.
This helmet is highly versatile and compatible with:
BMX Bicycles
Skateboards
Stunt Scooters
Roller Skates
Various Cycling Disciplines (e.g., urban, hybrid, leisure)
It is designed as a Unisex product.
Cleaning: Info needed: [Specific cleaning instructions for shell and pads, e.g., 'Use a damp cloth with mild soap for the shell; hand wash pads and air dry.']
Storage: Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, as these can degrade the helmet materials over time.
Inspection: Regularly inspect the helmet for any signs of damage, such as cracks in the shell, compressed foam, or frayed straps. If damage is found, the helmet should be replaced immediately, as its protective capacity may be compromised.
