Safety Information

The VICTGOAL Adult Bike Helmet is designed to reduce the risk of head injury during cycling. For maximum protection, ensure the helmet is properly fitted and secured according to the instructions below. This helmet is not intended for motor sports or other activities not specified.

• Always wear a helmet when cycling.
• Ensure the helmet fits snugly and does not move freely on your head.
• Inspect the helmet for any damage before each use. Do not use a damaged helmet.
• Replace the helmet after any significant impact, even if visible damage is not apparent.
• Do not modify the helmet or use accessories not approved by the manufacturer.

Setup and Fitting

1. Sizing and Fit Adjustment

Proper fit is crucial for helmet effectiveness. Measure your head circumference to select the correct size. The helmet should sit level on your head, covering your forehead, and the straps should be snug but comfortable.

• Measure Head Circumference: Use a flexible tape measure to find the circumference of your head, approximately 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) above your ears and across your forehead.
• Select Size: Refer to the sizing chart below. If your measurement falls between two sizes, choose the larger size for a more comfortable fit.
• Adjust Retention System: Place the helmet on your head. Turn the adjustment dial at the back of the helmet clockwise to tighten the fit until it is snug and stable, but not uncomfortably tight. Turn counter-clockwise to loosen.
• Adjust Straps: The side straps should form a 'V' shape just below your ears. Adjust the strap sliders to achieve this. The chin strap should be tightened so that only one or two fingers can fit between the strap and your chin.
• Check Fit: With the chin strap fastened, try to move the helmet from side to side and front to back. It should not shift significantly.

2. Attaching/Detaching Visor and Goggles

The helmet comes with a detachable sun visor and magnetic goggles. Both attach securely to the helmet.

• Sun Visor: Align the three clips on the sun visor with the corresponding slots on the front of the helmet. Press firmly until they click into place. To detach, gently pull the visor away from the helmet.
• Magnetic Goggles: The goggles attach to the helmet via strong magnets located on the helmet's front edge. Simply bring the goggles close to the magnetic points, and they will snap into position. To remove, gently pull them away. The goggles can be flipped upwards and attached to the helmet when not in use.

3. Rear Light Activation

The integrated rear light is powered by a CR2032 battery (included). It may require activation or battery installation upon first use.

• Locate the rear light unit at the back of the helmet's adjustment dial.
• Press the center of the light unit to cycle through the modes: Steady On, Slow Flashing, Fast Flashing, and Off.
• Ensure the light is functioning before night rides.

Operation

Once the helmet is properly fitted, its operation is straightforward.

• Wearing the Helmet: Always ensure the helmet is worn level on your head, covering your forehead, and the chin strap is securely fastened.
• Using Goggles/Visor: Attach the magnetic goggles or sun visor as needed for eye and face protection. The goggles can be easily flipped up or removed when not required.
• Operating Rear Light: Press the button on the rear light to turn it on and cycle through the three illumination modes (steady, slow flash, fast flash) to suit visibility conditions.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance will prolong the life of your helmet and ensure its continued effectiveness.

1. Cleaning the Helmet

• Shell: Clean the helmet's exterior with a soft cloth, mild soap, and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the helmet's materials.
• Internal Pads: The internal padding is soft and washable. Detach the pads from the helmet (they are typically attached with hook-and-loop fasteners). Hand wash them with mild soap and water, then air dry completely before reattaching.
• Goggles/Visor: Clean the goggles and visor with a soft, lint-free cloth and water. Do not use paper towels or harsh chemicals, which can scratch the lens.
