Gecko & Pro Dytter

Recommended Posts

Hello

I have a gecko helmet, its not to bad except for the fact that the pro dytter that I have doesn't fit properly into it. The hole for the audible is too small (I think its supposed to only take a timeout) I have glued 2 small pieces of velcro either side of the audible pouch and I keep it in place my a strip of velcro that goes across the dytter onto these 2 pieces of velcro on either side. Does anybody else have a Gecko and has similar problems? Do you have a better way to secure the dytter?

I really wish I had paid the extra £15 and bought a Gath instead. The new ones have a really nice clip with a cover thats made for the pro dytter and pro track and they look better.

Thanks

I also have a Gecko and Pro-Dytter. My skytronic fits a little better, but eventually I stufFed some foam in the recess and velcro'd the audible down on it.

I also glued some velcro along the chin strap as mine just didn't seem to stay on tight.

P.s. I'd turn the Dytter over, so the little hole is facing your ear. ;)

Definitely! You'd think it doesn't make such a big difference until on a jump you start to wonder why doesn't your audible work..

Happened to me with a Pro-Track... :S

i had the same problem with my gecko and a dytter, spent hours with a needle file trying to make the hole a bit bigger.

I eventually filed the helmet out enuogh so that the dytter fits into the recess so that it doesn't protrude into the ear space. The dytter now pretty much wedges into the recess, but i glued a circular pice of elastic to the back of the recess which goes round the dytter to hold it in place.

I agree with the others about turning the dytter round, you want the speaker hole to be right next to your ear... mine is and i still have trouble hearing it above the wind noise some times!!

Hello

I was thinking of doing that but it doesn't look like there is enough to file away on mine if you know what I mean? I looks like if I file enough away for the dytter to fit then I will end up filing a hole in the helmet. The whole is quite a lot smaller than the Dytter and I can only fit one side in so it sits at an angle. How much did you have to file away?

it was a fair amount, but the main reason the dytter wouldn't fit was that the sides of the recess sloped inwards. That part of the helmet is deceptively thick as well, or was on mine at least!

so i basically filed out the sides so they were a bit straighter and managed to get enough room to wedge the dytter in.
