Helmet maintenace is important to ensure that your lid remains in top condition so that your head is kept safe. Here are 10 steps for great helmet care
Eight.
Helmets are a lot more robust than you think, they are designed to be stripped and re-assembled for cleaning as well as to keep your head safe. Don’t be scared to get stuck in, but on the same note don’t force something that doesn’t feel like it wants to be forced.
Nine.
A five pound cleaning product can inflict £100 worth of damage to your helmet and render it useless. Consult the helmet manufacturer and find out what the best products to use are, don’t be tempted to use the same stuff you would use to clean your bike. Or your oven!
Ten.
Your helmet is the most important piece of equipment you own, buy the very best one you can afford and never compromise yourself, change it every five years, maximum. Heads don’t fix well, bones do!
