helmet technical question

Postby MrBond » Thu Feb 06, 2014 8:23 pm

Just got an interior repair kit - new comfort padding for my Bell helmet - but there's no sticky stuff on the back.
What should I use to hold it in, double sided tape ?
Thanks in advance.

All of my helmets are Giro. I just checked and they have little velcro bits on them.

You can use double sided tape, or little velcro dots that have double sided tape on them. I don't see that damaging the helmet.

I like Velcro, so you can pull them off and wash them if needed. Or even reposition if one is in a spot that is bothering you.
A lot of them are made of a material that will adhere to the "hook" side of Velcro, so you only need to apply that side to your helmet. But that might not be the case with yours.

Thanks to you both, I used some cut down strips of double sided tape and it seems to work just fine !
