有車禍撞過應該就該換囉~
一般使用我看ICON是建議三~五年換。
Helmet Replacement (All Models)
Although your ICON Helmet is constructed with quality materials to offer a long-lasting product, it will eventually need to be replaced. Immediately replace your helmet if: It has suffered an impact. Your helmet is only designed for ONE impact. An impact may fracture the outer shell or compress the impact absorbing liner. You may not be able to detect this damage. Any impact from a crash or a drop from as low as 4 feet is enough to damage your helmet. Even if your helmet has not been damaged, it needs to be replaced every 3 to 5 years depending on how much you use it. Glues, resins and other materials used in helmet production can affect the liner materials over time. Hair oils, body fluids and cosmetics, as well as normal “wear and tear” also contribute to helmet degradation. Additionally, petroleum based products present in cleaners, paints, fuels and other commonly encountered materials may break down materials used in many helmets, possibly compromising helmets. Over time, UV rays and adhesive and component aging will damage your helmet. Wearing a damaged helmet may increase your risk of serious injury or death in an accident. |
