Troubleshooting Tips

Bicycle helmet straps should be in contact with the face and be no more than one inch in front of the ear. Common problems and solutions:

  • Incorrect attachment: Check instructions or attachment video.
  • Straps too far forward: Straps should be no more than one inch in front of ears. Adjust strap lengths so that the Y-clip is directly under the ear.
  • Straps too far away from face:  If straps mount to outside of the helmet shell the straps may be more than the ¼” maximum distance away from face and Wind-Blox may not be able to contact the face.
  • Residual wind noise:  We recommend occasionally lifting your helmet straps away from your face to experience the difference with and without Wind-Blox.  Performance may vary with wind conditions.
