Carbon - Red | Helmets | ICON Motosports - Ride Among Us (2024)

Let’s face it, Icon® helmets look cool and you want to keep them thatway. We’ve found the following methods work really well to keep ourhelmets looking sharp and ready to roll. Remember, never use gas,pre-mix, carb cleaner, brake cleaner or any other random unlabeled spraycan lying around the garage. Chemicals and harsh solvents can breakdown the materials in your helmet; it’s like using brake cleaner topolish your plastics—don’t do it!

Shield Cleaning
Your helmet is equipped with a scratch resistant fog freeshield. Common household cleaners such as glass cleaners, surfacecleaners, and furniture cleaners, can leave behind unwanted residues, orin some extreme cases damage the shield itself. It is ourrecommendation the same steps outlined above for cleaning the exteriorof your helmet should be applied to cleaning the exterior of yourshield. Use no cleaners or detergents on the inside of your shield.Using anything other than a clean soft cloth, micro fiber cloth, or thebag supplied with your helmet, will ruin or reduce the effectiveness ofthe fog free coating.

Advisory
One Impact Rule - Any helmet that has sustained an impact should bereplaced. Helmets are designed to absorb only one impact. The helmet isdesigned to absorb some shock by partial destruction of the shell andliner. After your helmet has endured any impact, the impact absorptionliner portion of your helmet will have dispersed the energy from thatimpact, thus rendering the liner compacted and, therefore, compromised.This damage may not be visible. Even if there is no VISIBLE damage tothe shell, the helmet’s usefulness is expired after one impact. A helmetthat has experienced an impact should be destroyed and replaced, evenif it is apparently undamaged. Obsolesence and Helmet Disposal - Ahelmet has a limited lifespan in use and should be replaced when itshows obvious signs of wear, e.g. change of fit, cracks, rust, frayingor other signs of normal “wear and tear” that can contribute to helmetdegradation.
