KEP Italia Helmet Component Replacement

Our helmet component replacement service is exclusively for KEP Italia helmets, the brand in our range designed for component replacement by an authorised service centre. Equishop specialists carry out the work with genuine tools supplied by KEP Italia. The component must be purchased from Equishop, either with a new helmet or separately for a helmet you already own.

Why KEP Italia?
KEP Italia helmets have a modular design: certain components can be replaced without interfering with the shell or buying a new helmet. Many other riding helmets do not offer this option, so a worn or damaged component may mean replacing the whole helmet.
There are limits to modular construction: not every KEP helmet component can be replaced. This depends on the design of the specific model and version. If unsure, contact us before buying. We will check compatibility and help you avoid ordering an unsuitable part.
Two ways to use this service
We fit only components purchased from Equishop:
| Your situation | How it works |
|---|---|
| Buying a component with a new helmet | Order your KEP Italia helmet, component and fitting service together. We deliver the helmet assembled in your chosen configuration. You do not need to send anything to us. |
| You already own a helmet | Order the component and fitting service, then bring your helmet to Ruda Śląska or send it to us. We return it to your chosen address after fitting. |
In both cases, the part must be purchased from us. We do not fit components from other sources because we cannot confirm their authenticity or compatibility with your model. For protective equipment, these checks are essential.
Genuine tools and trained specialists
Replacing a KEP helmet component may look straightforward, but requires the correct tools and knowledge of the model's construction. We use tools supplied by KEP Italia and follow the manufacturer's procedures.
- Genuine KEP Italia service tools, as used by the manufacturer.
- Work by Equishop specialists, avoiding the scratches and damaged fixings that can result from unsuitable DIY attempts.
- Checks after fitting: we verify that all components are correctly seated before returning the helmet.
- Direct manufacturer contact: we consult KEP Italia on unusual cases.
Replacing components does not restore a helmet's protective properties after an accident. A helmet involved in a fall or impact should be replaced regardless of its external appearance, even when there are no visible marks. Tell us when ordering if you have concerns about the shell's condition.
How to order helmet component replacement
- Confirm that the part is replaceable on your model. Contact us before buying if unsure.
- Buy the component from Equishop, with a new KEP Italia helmet or separately for your existing helmet.
- Order the fitting service on this page. A service charge applies; current pricing and conditions are displayed here.
- Bring or send your helmet to our service centre. This is unnecessary when buying a component with a new helmet, as we fit it before dispatch.
- Collect or receive your helmet. We confirm completion timing after receiving it and checking parts availability.
Protect the helmet in its original box or bag for shipping. Loose packing can cause new scratches during transit. The shop's free delivery and returns offers do not apply to service orders.

Frequently asked questions
Which helmet brands do you service?
KEP Italia only. It is the brand in our range whose helmets are designed for component replacement through an authorised service centre. We do not offer this service for other manufacturers.
Can every KEP helmet component be replaced?
No. Replaceability depends on the construction of the model and version. Contact us with your model name before buying a part so we can confirm whether replacement is possible.
Can I send you a part bought elsewhere?
No. We fit only parts purchased from Equishop, either with a helmet or separately. With parts from another source, we cannot confirm authenticity and compatibility, which is essential for protective equipment.
I am buying a new KEP helmet. Do I need to send it to you?
No. If you order the component with a new helmet, we fit it before shipping. Sending a helmet to our service centre is necessary only if you already own it.
Can I replace the part myself?
We advise against it. The work requires genuine KEP Italia service tools and knowledge of the model's construction. Unsuitable tools can scratch the helmet or damage fixings, leading to costs greater than the fitting service.
How long does component replacement take?
We confirm the date after receiving the helmet and checking the part's availability. If you need it for a particular competition, tell us when ordering so we can check whether the timing is possible.
How much does fitting cost?
There is a fitting charge whether you buy the part with a helmet or separately. The current service price is shown on this page. The component itself is charged separately at its shop price.
Does component replacement affect the warranty?
Our service uses genuine KEP Italia parts and tools and follows the manufacturer's procedures. The helmet manufacturer's warranty conditions apply. Contact us before ordering if you have questions about your model.
How do I send my helmet for servicing?
Bring it to our service centre in Ruda Śląska or send it to us; we return it to your chosen address afterwards. Use the original box or helmet bag and fill empty space in the shipping carton so it cannot move around.
