Helmet Retention Repair

The day after my last ride I discovered that part of the Detox Retention system on my Fox Flux helmet had snapped. Fortunately this after a bit of thought was easy to fix.

At work pulled out the Gorilla Glue. Great stuff and seems to help reglue so much back together.

As you can see in the photo below the Detox had snapped on the plastic ridged piece. As I mentioned at the beginning it was fortunate that where it snapped was on one side so allowed for the potential to repair.

First had to measure and trim a bit from the part that stayed inside the Detox adjuster- That being the clear bit. Simple trim using a pair of regular electrical type wire cutters. After that drippled in a bit of Gorilla Glue. After giving it a few minutes to sit added a bit more gluile to it. Then inserted the plastic in until it clicked int place.

Then waited a few hours till the glue dried. This has fixed the broken bit and the Detox system works.
