The Omne Air SPIN Helmet achieves that fine balance between aero performance, comfort, ventilation and of course first-rate protection, making this a helmet you can easily use every day. In the event of a fall, it's the combination of optimal liner density, thicker core protection zones and SPIN (Shearing Pad INside) technology that will help prevent injury through optimal energy dispersal. SPIN (Shearing Pad INside) Unlike most of its rivals who deploy the popular MIPS technology, POC has created their very own protective system known as SPIN, a patent-pending rotational impact protection system that reduces the effects of an oblique fall by limiting the amount of force transmitted to the head and brain. Using an innovative and unique pad technology to keep you safe you'll be protected from unexpected falls and install a new level of confidence as you ride. Easy Adjustment and Comfort While protection is of paramount importance it's not much good if the helmet is uncomfortable or poorly vented. It's here that the Omne Air SPIN benefits from tech first developed on POC's award-winning Octal and the Ventral race helmets. The slim and streamlined profile keeps weight and bulk to a minimum while large vents and ventilation channels create a cooling airflow over the whole head. A lightweight 360-degree size adjustment system gives you precise control of the fit while easily adjusted straps ensure the helmet remains perfectly in place no matter what. Delivering superior levels of comfort, fit and performance, the Omne Air SPIN Helmet can see you take safely to the race track, work commute or big weekend gravel epic.
Aero helmets often compromise cooling for aerodynamic gains but with their Ventral Air SPIN Helmet, POC has managed to combine slippery streamlining and impressive cooling, making this a helmet for fast and hot days on the bike. Using CDF analysis the Ventral has been designed to create minimal air turbulence while precisely placed intake and exhaust vents suck air through internal channels, turbocharging the cooling performance of the helmet. Whether it's a high-speed ride on the flat or toiling up a hot climb this precision venting works to keep you cooler and sweat-free. The updated POC Ventral Air MIPS helmet is now available POC Protection You can also be confident head protection isn't compromised in pursuit of venting and aerodynamic performance. The EPS liner features multi-density zones to deliver targetted crash protection and this also helps keep weight low, just 230 grams for a size medium.

And if you feel it's not necessary, the waistband is also removable.
Weight x Safety POC started with their renowned Ventral Air helmet and through careful engineering have been able to save overall weight while also making the Ventral Lite Road Cycling Helmet more rigid and preserving the excellent crash protection of the original. The Polycarbonate shell is also lighter, covering less of the liner to keep the weight as low as possible. This same minimalist approach is also applied to the straps and adjustment system to shed yet more weight. POC Protection Despite the drive to minimise weight you can still be confident in the head protection the Ventral Lite offers. The EPS liner features multi-density zones to deliver targetted head protection should you crash. As mentioned above, a polycarbonate unibody shell is placed in key areas to enhance safety and helmet integrity as well as durability. The straps are also anchored to the helmet for a greater degree of hold in the event of a crash. Lastly, a lightweight size adjustment system makes adjustment easy and keeps the helmet locked in place, vital should you take a fall. Fast and Cool The Ventral Lite has the same focus on smooth airflow and excellent ventilation as its Ventral Air sibling. The efficient vent design and internal air channels are the results of CDF analysis. Minimal air turbulence keeps aero performance high, while precisely placed intake and exhaust vents suck air through internal channels, turbocharging the cooling performance of the helmet. Whether it's a high-speed ride on the flat or toiling up a hot climb this precision venting works to keep you cooler and sweat-free.

It's a helmet ideal for riders who ride hard and treat their equipment just as hard too.
The distinctive design of the Octal MIPS Road Helmet is the first thing to catch the eye. But function and form are closely linked here, with ventilation, comfort and protection intertwined perfectly to create both a high level of performance and an eye-catching design. Safe to its Core At the heart of the performance is the safety provided by the combination of shock-absorbing EPS foam core, made thicker in more vulnerable areas, and MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) technology. In the event of a crash both work hand in hand to absorb and dissipate harmful impacts to the head and brain. The protection is further heightened by the extended coverage over the temples and at the back of the head. A unibody outer shell wraps the inner core, enhancing both durability and structural integrity all while minimising weight.
