Thank you for purchasing a cycling classic model Da Brim
!
The Da Brim
®
helmet visor product line is designed to be installed to an outdoor sports helmet. The cycling classic model Da
Brim
®
helmet visor should only be used with cycling helmets while engaged in cycling activities. Do not use Da Brim
other
than as instructed herein and do not modify Da Brim
.
Cycling Classic Da Brim
installation is quick and easy!
If your helmet has a removable visor, you should remove the visor before installing the Da Brim product. Do not use this product
with helmets with non-removable visors.
Step 1
. Begin with a loose adjustment strap.
Step 2.
Hold your helmet
at the center back with
your thumb on the
outside and grip the
center back loop of the
Da Brim
visor at the
same place with your
thumb.
Step 3
. Place your other hand at the
front of the product and rotate the
assembly upside down. Push the
helmet against your chest and slowly
pull the Da Brim
visor over the
helmet, seating the visor’s edge on the
helmet. The black underside of the
visor should end at the bottom edge of
the helmet.
Step 4.
Flip the assembly over
and tighten the strap by
positioning your thumb at the
rear of the helmet and pulling on
the strap. Give the strap several
good tugs to achieve a tight grip.
Tuck the strap into the hole
provided.
Step 5.
Check for correct installation. Centers of helmet and visor should align; if necessary, pull to
straighten. Always ensure the strap is tight. The Da Brim
®
helmet visor should always seat below the front
helmet surface, as shown, to prevent detachment. Check by pulling upward on the front visor as if in wind
flow—the visor should not be loose or detach from the helmet. If the visor does not seat as described
herein, do not use the Da Brim
visor with this helmet. Failure to properly seat the visor could result in
the Da Brim
product unseating during use and startling you or others, or obstructing your vision, which
may lead to serious injury or even death.
Step 6.
The Cycling Classic model Da Brim
is equipped with hook and loop tabs for adjustment of front visor angle and rear brim
height. Use these tabs to adjust these features to your preference. Always use and securely close the front visor angle tab; if you do
not, the front visor could get caught in the wind, flip down, and obstruct your vision, which may lead to serious injury or even
death. Inspect hook and look fasteners regularly for wear. If the fasteners do not function properly, discontinue use of this product.
Always use caution when riding. Do not ride in places, such as near overhanding branches, where the adjustment straps could get
caught; if the straps are caught by a branch or other object, it could cause abrupt head movement and/or a crash that may cause
serious bodily injury or death. The cycling classic Da Brim
has been tested up to a combined wind speed (to include the sum of
winds from all angles: headwinds, tailwinds, sidewinds, your speed, and so forth) of 25 mph. Beyond 25 mph, you may experience
wind resistance and lift that may cause your helmet to move and become positioned improperly; do not use this product beyond
combined wind speeds of 25 mph. Always make sure the straps on your helmet are tight, as per the helmet manufacturer’s
instructions.
Step 7.
After the Da Brim
visor is installed on the helmet, follow the helmet manufacturer’s instructions for fitting the helmet.
Then, while the helmet and visor is fitted, and prior to using the helmet and Da Brim
visor in an activity, check to ensure that the
Da Brim
visor does not obstruct your vision. Pay attention to your peripheral vision. Should your vision be obstructed by the Da
Brim
visor, remove the helmet and reinstall the Da Brim
visor. After proper installation of the Da Brim
visor to the helmet,
your vision should not be obstructed.
To remove the Da Brim
visor from the helmet, wait until you are at safe location and at a rest position, then disengage the Da
Brim
visor by releasing the tension on the strap by pulling up on the buckle. Pull up on the Da Brim
product to remove.
