Helmet pads - weird grey rubbery bits

As pictured in my Protone helmet. Most of these have disappeared at some point so I’d like to replace them. Since they don’t appear to be available as spare parts, anyone got any idea of what might be a suitable alternative that I can trim down to fit?

Looked at those - it appears that it’s just the normal foam padding which is still fine (probably needs a wash though!)oxoman said:Are these any good.

Or possibly these, have used similar on my mtb helmet in the past.

I used Sugru https://sugru.com/ on mine, really easy to mould into shape and isn’t rock hard when set.'Hello to Jason Isaacs'0

The thing about sugru is that it doesn’t keep once opened so best to do all your pad replacement in one go.'Hello to Jason Isaacs'0

You can buy small sheets of rubber, some self adhesive backed. How about this available as small as an A5 sheet in various thicknesses. Easy to cut with a craft knife to required shapes. https://shop.deltarubber.co.uk/rubber-pads-a3-a4-a5/white-silicone-rubber-pads-a3-a4-a5-and-various.html
I used thicker black rubber sheet to make mudflaps for my winter bike...

Will the black rubber sheets though leave a black mark on your noggin?0

The link I posted was for white rubber. You can get various colours....0

Yep, I realised that. Attempt at humour failed badly!0

Search Amazon for bike helmet pads. Worked for me; attach via sticky velcro.0
