Step-by-Step Installation

1

Begin with a Loose Adjustment Strap

Start with the adjustment strap fully loosened before installation.

💡 Tip: If your helmet has a removable visor, remove it before installing the Da Brim. Do not use this product with helmets that have non-removable visors.
2

Grip the Centre Back of the Helmet

Hold your helmet at the centre back with your thumb on the outside and grip the centre back loop of the Da Brim at the same place with your thumb.

💡 Tip: Make sure you have a firm grip on both the helmet and the Da Brim loop together.
3

Rotate and Seat the Da Brim

Place your other hand at the front of the Da Brim and rotate the assembly upside down. Push the helmet against your chest and slowly pull the Da Brim over the helmet, seating the Da Brim edge on the helmet. The black underside of the Da Brim should end at the bottom edge of the helmet.

💡 Tip: Work slowly and ensure the brim seats evenly all the way around the helmet.
4

Flip Over and Tighten the Strap

Flip the assembly over and tighten the strap by positioning your thumb at the rear of the helmet and pulling on the strap. Tuck the strap into the hole provided.

💡 Tip: The strap should feel snug and the Da Brim should not rotate freely on the helmet.
5

Check for Correct Installation

Centres of the helmet and Da Brim should align. If necessary, pull to straighten. Always ensure the strap is tight. The Da Brim 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 Da Brim should not be loose or detach from the helmet. If the Da Brim does not seat as described, do not use the Da Brim with this helmet.

⚠ Important: Failure to properly install the Da Brim could result in it unseating during use, which may lead to serious injury.
💡 Tip: Failure to properly seat the Da Brim could result in it unseating during use, startling you or others, or obstructing your vision, which may lead to serious injury.
6

Adjust Hook and Loop Tabs

The Sporty Cycling 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. Inspect hook and loop fasteners regularly for wear. If the fasteners do not function properly, discontinue use of this product.

⚠ Important: Failure to properly install the Da Brim could result in it unseating during use, which may lead to serious injury.
💡 Tip: The Sporty Cycling Da Brim has been tested up to a combined wind speed of 35 mph (56 km/h). Beyond 35 mph, you may experience wind resistance and lift. Do not use this product beyond combined wind speeds of 35 mph.
7

Fit Your Helmet and Test Vision

After the Da Brim is installed on the helmet, follow the helmet manufacturer's instructions for fitting the helmet. Then, while the helmet and Da Brim is fitted, and prior to using it in an activity, check to ensure that the Da Brim does not obstruct your vision. Pay attention to your peripheral vision. Should your vision be obstructed by the Da Brim, remove the helmet and reinstall the Da Brim.

💡 Tip: Look up, down, and side to side to ensure full range of vision before riding.
