A Cyclist"s Guide to Basic Giro Helmets
Giro, as it is the provider of high-quality helmets, is undeniably expensive for other cyclists who are budget conscious. We always think about where our every penny is going especially to things that we really value the efficiency. We don't want to buy a Giro helmet and see that the helmet is not worth the price and our money. That is why if we are going to buy a Giro helmet for ourselves, we have to know how to take care of it so that our money will not go for nothing.
Giro helmets are great gears to provide our safety and protect us against severe injuries from cycling accidents but it is still our responsibility how to keep our helmets efficient and working well.
Here are some of the tips on how to take care of our Giro helmets.
When storing our Giro helmets, we have to make sure that we let the helmet dry by air every after use. We also have to store our helmets in cool, dry places to avoid damage to the helmets. We have to avoid placing our helmets at places which expose our helmets to direct sunlight like inside the car and automobile compartments which will surely cause heat damage to our helmets. If we are not going to use our helmets for a very long time, we should just return the helmet in its box and store it in a cool, dry place to prevent damage.
If there are visible cracks or breaks on the outer shell or on the foam lining of the helmet, we should not use the helmet again. Most of the helmets features for safety and protection are expended already when the helmets become damaged or if it has been impacted already. We should not use helmets which have been exposed to impact already as the helmets have already used its safety features.
Generally, helmets should be replaced every three years given the condition that the helmets are not yet impacted or crashed. If so, the helmet should be replaced immediately after crash or impact incidence. We have to keep in mind that it is important not to use helmets which have been engaged in accidents already.
If the Giro helmets have manufacturer's defects, the company offers a 1-year warranty of repair and replacement of helmets if proven damaged.
Safety is the number one priority of Giro and their on hand management ends when a consumer already buys it. This is why, as consumers, we are also partly responsible in taking care of our helmets and that the goal of Giro is met.
