Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about Sun Brims, shipping, installation, and more.
Products & Compatibility
What Da Brim products do you carry? ▼
We stock the full Da Brim range: the Rezzo Visor (fits cycling, skateboarding, climbing, paddling, and equestrian helmets), Sporty Cycling (360-degree brim, wind-tested to 56 km/h), Cycling Classic (larger profile, tested to 40 km/h), Equestrian Endurance (360-degree coverage for equestrian helmets), and Equestrian Petite (smaller brim for petite riders).
Will a Da Brim fit my helmet? ▼
Da Brim products fit most standard helmets for cycling, equestrian, climbing and professional use. Cycling brims fit helmets with an outer circumference of 66 to 81 cm, which covers most adult road, mountain and commuter helmets. Equestrian brims come in two sizes: the Endurance for standard adult helmets, and the Petite for smaller helmets from 66 cm. The Rezzo Visor fits a wide range of helmet types and sizes. Check the product page or our compatibility guide for your specific helmet.
Do Da Brims affect helmet safety? ▼
No. Da Brims attach externally and do not modify your helmet's structure or void its safety certification. They are designed to detach cleanly in the event of an impact. Always perform a final safety check before each ride to ensure the brim is secure and does not obstruct your vision.
What is UPF 50+ rated? ▼
UPF 50+ means the fabric blocks over 98% of UV radiation from reaching your skin. Da Brim products are UPF 50+ rated, providing excellent sun protection for your face, ears, and neck during outdoor activities.
Can I use the Rezzo Visor for cycling? ▼
Yes. Despite 'visor' in the name, the Rezzo is designed for cycling, skateboarding, climbing, paddling, and equestrian use. It attaches via an adjustable band and is suitable for a wide range of helmet types.
Can I use a cycling brim on an equestrian helmet (or vice versa)? ▼
No. Cycling and equestrian brims use different attachment systems designed for their specific helmet types. Using the wrong product could result in a poor fit or detachment during use. Choose the product designed for your activity.
Installation & Removal
How long does installation take? ▼
Most Da Brim products install in under 30 seconds. No tools are required. Each product has a dedicated step-by-step guide on our How to Install page.
How does the Rezzo Visor attach? ▼
The Rezzo uses a three-piece system: an attachment band, a visor bill, and an optional friction tube (for rounded helmets). You wrap the band around the helmet, tighten the strap, then press the bill onto the hook and loop fasteners on the band. Leave at least a 12mm gap at centre front to relieve air pressure.
How do cycling brims (Sporty & Classic) attach? ▼
The brim slides over your helmet and is secured with an adjustment strap at the rear. Loosen the strap, grip the centre back loop, rotate the brim over the helmet, then tighten the strap firmly. Hook and loop tabs let you adjust the front visor angle and rear brim height. The whole process takes under a minute with no tools required.
My equestrian helmet has a fixed visor. Which method do I use? ▼
If your helmet has a non-removable visor longer than 1 inch, use the pocket method: slide the Da Brim over the existing visor so it sits in the pocket. If the visor is flush or removable, use the hook and loop strip method instead. Both methods are covered in the Equestrian Endurance and Petite installation guides.
How do I remove a Da Brim? ▼
For cycling brims, loosen the rear adjustment strap by pulling up on the buckle, then lift the brim off the helmet. For the Rezzo, unsnap the bill from the band, then slide the band off. For equestrian brims, release the rear strap and gently pull the brim away. Always remove when stationary and in a safe location. Store flat to maintain shape. See each product's installation guide for detailed removal steps.

Sun Protection & Safety
How much UV protection do Da Brims provide? ▼
Da Brims are UPF 50+ rated, blocking over 98% of UV radiation. They significantly reduce UV exposure to your face, ears, and neck. They complement sunscreen but don't replace it.
Will the brim catch wind at high speeds? ▼
The Sporty Cycling brim is wind-tested to 56 km/h and the Classic to 40 km/h. For the Rezzo Visor, leave at least a 12 mm gap between the bill and band to relieve air pressure. If you regularly ride at high speeds, consider the Sporty over the Classic for better wind performance.
Are Da Brims effective on cloudy days? ▼
Yes. Up to 80% of UV rays penetrate clouds, so sun protection matters even on overcast days. Da Brims provide consistent shade regardless of cloud cover.
Can I wear sunglasses with a Da Brim? ▼
Yes. The brim reduces overhead glare while sunglasses protect from direct light, giving you comprehensive coverage.
