Rear shim - Précision riding helmet
This shim is designed to pad out the back of the Précision helmet liner. It provides a specific and bespoke fit so that each rider can adapt his helmet to his needs and suit different morphologies.
Helmet shim description
This liner pad is designed to fit the Précision riding helmet. It stops it feeling like the helmet is rocking backwards or forwards. The velour fabric means the shim is removable, so there's space for you to wear a ponytail or tuck your hair inside the helmet.
Get the full set and pair the front shims with the rear shim on the liner of the Précision riding helmet.
You can fit 2 pads together to increase the total thickness.
It's washable too.
Available in 2 thicknesses: 4mm or 8mm, and 2 sizes: S/M and M/L.
Fitting guide
1. Remove the back of the liner from the velcro.
2. Line the shim up with the top and side edges of the inner shell. Position the velour loop side against the inner shell's velcro.
3. Put the liner back into its original position. The liner's velour loops naturally fasten onto the shim’s hooks.
