True lightweight for speed fans: at just 240 g the uvex race 7 is barely noticeable when you’re wearing it. Of course, there are no compromises on safety. In the event of an impact, the rollover bar technology distributes pressure evenly, over the entire helmet shell.
On short after-work rides or long weekend trips, the uvex race 7 road cycling helmet fits so comfortably you almost forget you’re wearing it. To achieve its low weight – just 240 g – it has the 2k IAS fit system, which allows the helmet to be effortlessly adjusted, in height and width, to fit your head. Thanks to 25 vents, optimal ventilation is guaranteed, even on the hottest days. The liner is a single, embossed pad, which dries fast.
As well as comfort, safety is, of course, also crucial. This double in-mold helmet, in a classic race design, has rollover bar technology built-in. In an impact, pressure is distributed evenly over the entire helmet shell, so the form of the helmet remains largely stable.

How do I adjust my cycling helmet properly?
It’s very important to ensure that the cycling helmet sits properly not only for safety reasons but of course also for comfort. That’s why you should make sure to select the correct helmet size before making your purchase.
head circumference
First the circumference of the head needs to be measured to determine the appropriate helmet size. A measuring tape offers the easiest solution: measure the full circumference of the head two finger widths above the eyebrows and above the ears. Tip: if you don’t have a measuring tape, you can also use a piece of string and then measure it with a ruler.
The right helmet size
The “from-to” size can be found inside the helmet itself: each uvex helmet size accommodates a range of head sizes such as 52–57 cm and 56–61 cm. Alternatively, you can ask the specialist retailer about your helmet size.
Width adjustment
Now turn the dial at the back of the head to accurately adjust the fit down to the millimeter. Next you need to check how the helmet fits on your head: loosen the uvex IAS 3D system by turning the dial and put the helmet on. It should fit comfortably but not fall off when you shake your head lightly with the chin strap open.
Height adjustment
The height of the uvex IAS 3D system can also be adjusted – with the easy-to-use ratchet closure: using two fingers, identify the appropriate height and insert.
Y-divider
The uvex IAS 3D system can be adjusted to improve the position of the y-divider. It should fit comfortably around the ears. The length of the chin strap can also be adjusted in just one simple step.
Level position
Before cycling, you should always ensure that the position of the helmet is level – not too low on the forehead or the neck. The ideal position is two finger widths above the eyebrows.
