GENERAL RULES

For maximum safety, STELLAR must fit tightly and be correctly and
securely fastened, so it cannot be taken off neither by pulling it nor
by rotating it around the head (Figure 1). If it is too big it may slide
down over the eyes or turn in a lateral direction due to movement
during riding, thus blocking visibility.

Do not use scarves or neck guards which could make the strap slide
and the helmet fly off in case of crash.
STELLAR was designed to be used with most of the eyeglasses on
the market. In any case check how the helmet fits with the glasses
before purchasing it.
The function of the helmet is to reduce stress on the user's head
in case of crash; this happens through a partial destruction and/or
deformation of its components (mostly the external shell and the
internal polystyrene shell). In this way part of the energy generated
by the impact is absorbed by the components of the helmet, thus
reducing the vibrations on the user's head, eliminating or limiting the
risk of traumas. The protection capacity of the helmet is not endless
and certain crashes may generate such high stress that even the
energy absorbed by the helmet is not enough to protect the user
from injuries: no helmet, even top quality helmets, can protect the
head against the forces generated by any type of crash.
