Choosing The Correct Helmet; Measuring Your Head Size - SCHUBERTH SR1 Manual

C. THE HELMET
Refl ective areas
One aspect of the characteristic design
of the SR1 is the silver-coloured areas of
refl ective material on the rear areas of the
neck cushion and acoustic collar. These
aid the rider's visibility in road traffi c,
particularly where visibility is poor.
On single-colour helmets (without
graphics) the SCHUBERTH name lettering
appears on the front and rear of the helmet
in refl ective foil.
Note: Keep the safety refl ective areas clean.
Note: If you intend to use the helmet in France, you are
required by law to affi x additional refl ective stickers to the
front and rear and also on the left and right-hand sides of
the helmet.

Wrap the tape measure around your head so that it lies about 2 cm
above the eyebrows, so as to obtain the maximum circumference.
