Be it taking your big-hitting bouncy bike on big mountain trails, hardtail XC fun on narrow singletrack or a leisurely family outing on the rough stuff, the Modrop MTB Helmet (MIPS) provides protection in the event of a fall. Head protection comes firstly via the Multi-Shell In-Mould construction. This has a shock-absorbing helmet material permanently bonded to a tough outer shell. The inner EPS foam soaks up and dissipates impact forces while the outer adds structural strength and fends off minor bumps, from overhanging branches for instance. You also have a height-adjustable visor to add protection to your face. In its uppermost adjustment, it also makes space for pulling up and stowing goggles, ideal for moments when you're taking stock, catching your breath, and readying yourself for the next drop-in. MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head. Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions in oblique hits to the head. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head. Shop All MIPS Helmets Click Here Safe and Secure Excellent safety is also matched with excellent comfort. A good-fitting helmet is essential for both safety and comfort. And here the Zoom Ace MTB adjustment system makes it easy to get the perfect fit. With the rear dial and the built-in height adjustment, you'll be able to get a secure fit every time you ride. And with ponytail compatibility, long hair isn't going to prevent a good fit either. You'll also be pleased to find ventilation is also superb, keeping you cooler when you're building a sweat on your mountain bike trail rides. A total of 14 air vents, 6 to the front and 8 to the side and rear, keep cool air flowing as you pedal. There's also a built-in bug mesh, keeping out those buzzing nasties as you zoom along the trails. Trail features If you love to ride trails with MTB goggles to keep your vision clear, the Modrop features Abus' GoggFit system. This allows you to secure the goggles to your helmet when you're not in need of them. There is also compatibility with QUIN chip system (Chip not supplied) - this works alongside the QUIN app to send an SOS should you crash - keeping you safer on remote trails.
If you're going to be riding hard, tickling the edge of tyre grip on hard turns, pushing jumps further and higher and generally going all-in on your ride, a crash is almost inevitable. It's how you progress after all. And when you do hit the ground, the Tectal MTB Helmet delivers. Take on The Trails with Confidence The construction method is borrowed from POC's groundbreaking Octal road cycling helmet. This sees a tough unibody shell bonded to a shock-absorbing EPS liner. The shell provides durable protection against minor knocks and in the event of a more serious fall enhances structural integrity. An Aramid bridge system, first seen in POC’s proven and award-winning Trabec helmet also allow POC to maintain a low weight and increase vent size while making no compromise to safety performance. At the core of the helmet is the EPS foam liner. This is the layer that soaks up harder head impacts during a fall. The density and thickness vary in order to optimise protection where it's needed most. The design of the Tectal also sees greater coverage specifically tailored for mountain biking. This gives extra protection across the temples and back of the head, so you're covered if you go over the bars or off the back. And if that wasn’t enough, a RECCO® Reflector lets emergency services scan for you should you become lost on a backcountry mountain biking adventure. Cool Comfort When you're riding, you'll soon be building up body heat. And with it, sweat. And so POC have ensured ventilation is optimised. In fact, they've used wind-tunnel testing to get the airflow just right, so whether going fast or slow, you'll enjoy fresh air over your head. 360-degree Fit System In order to keep the Tectal in place, you’ll find POC’s lightweight 360° fit system. This offers an easy-to-operate and precise fit, ensuring your helmet remains comfortable when riding and stays securely in place in the event of a crash.

This keeps your head protected when you push your limits a bit too far and hit the ground. Koroyd Technology Engineered Protection The MT500 also features Koroyd protection. Thousands of co-polymer extruded tubes are thermally welded to create a consistent and fully engineered energy absorption system. These cores plastically deform for higher speed impacts, absorbing energy linearly. Up to 84% of the material thickness can be utilised in case of an accident. Existing energy absorbers densify around 60%. MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents.
