Ecrin Roc helmets

[pete_the_caver]

Does anyone know if it is possible to remove the clips in the rim of the Crin Roc helmet thereby allowing the shortening of the front straps?  This is because although this helmet has incredible adjustment, the plastic blocks that sit below the ears, are too low for people with very small heads

I've tried to do this . . . and while it's possible, it isn't easy. Furthermore, the straps are tightly sewn inside the clips, so it would be very difficult to adjust them. There's a little plastic insert round which the straps are wrapped, with stitching to hold it in place; I really would not like to undo (cut!) the stitching, shorten the strap(s) and re-stitch them. Finally, they're difficult to get back in to the clips.
