Specialized Echelon II Helmet

No, this specific Hairport FSL II fit system is designed exclusively for the Specialized Echelon II helmet model. It will not fit other helmets in the Specialized lineup.

The Hairport design features a specific opening in the retention system that allows you to pull a ponytail through the back of the helmet. This ensures the helmet sits level on your head without the hair pushing it forward or creating pressure points.

It is a straightforward process that typically requires only basic tools or no tools at all, depending on how your original system is anchored. You simply detach the old retention cradle from the helmet shell and snap the new one into the existing mounting points.

You should consider a replacement if the adjustment dial no longer clicks or holds tension, if the plastic retention arms have become brittle or cracked, or if the internal padding has worn away to the point where the helmet feels unstable on your head.

No, this is strictly the replacement retention system (the plastic cradle and dial mechanism). It does not include the soft foam comfort pads that line the inside of the helmet shell.
