I have mine set on what ayrtek recommends for non ball penetration.

It comes with a leaflet that's shows you optimal settings.

Sorry lads been at indoor cricket and just seen this...

Grills are set to suggestion position when sent out for a 55mm gap, liners in the RawTek are Velcro fixed now so that the liners can easily be replaced if they become worn/smelly with use.

Carberry's liner was Velcro fixed so would have been easy to sort out but tricky when he's in Oz so was easier to send a new lid. With the rigorous use from the daily nets and heat the Velcro came unstuck but this was an older version which we have since amended to use more Velcro tabs. They come with a warranty and we will obviously assist when we can if a problem ever arrives with them.

Ear strap lengths can be custom length on RawTek models if they need adjusting as they are easy to break down as components if required/desired too :)

Thanks for being so helpful. Is this noticeably lighter than the Masuri Titanium?

It feels lighter on the head to me, but that may be down to the more cushioned fit thanks to the ACIS system.

And a picture of my grille setting as promised

first off - tremendous service. one of the best I've experienced - made things really easy for me.

how have you guys found the pumping adjustment mechanism? i feel like the helmet starts rising up quickly, and then i find myself trying to keep it down, on my head!

also, thinking of using a bandana for sweat absorption, instead the sweat bands..may also help in a better fit.

When it starts rising you have pumped up too much, or your chinstrap is exceptionally loose.

As Jake said - before you start pumping you need to get the chin strap in place and tight. Then pump the lid until it is perfect on your noggin. If you pump with the chin strap wrong it will be very odd.

It a that in the leaflet. Too many pumps will make it rise.

Do you leave yours pumped when you remove it??
I do that & give it a pump or 2 when I put it on
