POC Axion MIPS HelmetCreated for the rigours of both trail and enduro mountain bike riding, the POC Axion MIPS Helmet has a focus on giving you superb comfort and ventilation when on the bike. But with outstanding protection, it keeps you safer when your ambition is beaten by gravity and you crash to the ground.Durable. Light. Protective. The first line of defence for your head is the combination of a tough but lightweight Unibody shell and an energy-dissipating EPS foam liner. The outer of the Axion MIPS Helmet not only brushes off overhanging bushes and branches during normal trail riding but in the event of a crash, it maintains structural integrity. At the same time, the EPS foam inner liner absorbs the damaging forces of head impacts. Both work in tandem to prevent injury to your head when you fall. You also have the benefit of POC's patented adjustable breakaway peak. This comes away from the helmet during a crash, reducing harmful forces transmitted to the neck. Extended zones around the temples and back of the head also give you extra protection in risk areas.MIPS Integra Head Protection SolutionThe Axion also features the MIPS Integra system. This brings together POC's 'whole-helmet' safety and design ethos with the fully integrated brain-protecting technology of MIPS. This holistic approach sees every detail of the helmet engineered to work in harmony with each other, giving you new levels of seamless safety, comfort, ventilation, fit and function.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.360-degree Fit SystemIn order to keep the Axion MIPS in place, you’ll find POC’s 360° fit system. This offers an easy-to-operate and precise fit, ensuring your Axion remains comfortable when riding and stays securely in place in the event of a crash.Cool TrailsWith the structural strength of the Unibody construction, POC have been able to optimise vent size without compromising on safety. With large intake and exhaust vents, and the integrated MIPS system working seamlessly with the inner air channels, you'll enjoy fresh airflow over the head. You can also be confident of a cool head as your mountain bike ride hots up.As you dive into fun singletrack, test your skills on technical trails and take to the air across big gaps that raise your heart rate, it's good to know the Axion MIPS Helmet has your head safely covered.FeaturesMIPS Integra - The latest technology from brain protection specialists MIPSUnibody Shell - unibody Polycarbonate shell enhances the structural integrity of the helmetEPS Liner - A lightweight EPS liner gives optimized protectionPatented breakaway peak - snap off in a crash to enhance neck protectionOptimised airflow ventilationExtended protection zonesA 360-degree adjustment system makes it easy to find a secure, comfortable fitWeight: 370g (M)Certification - EN 1078Shop all MIPS helmets - Click hereBuy POC Helmets from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

POC Tectal Race MIPS HelmetDeveloped using POC’s Whole Helmet Concept™, the POC Tectal Race MIPS Helmet deploys the powers of MIPS to keep your head protected on your all-mountain, trail-shredding, enduro-racing, dirt-kicking mountain bike adventures. An advanced all-mountain helmet, the Tectal Race MIPS Helmet feels fantastic to wear when you're enjoying the thrills and heart-pumping exhilaration of going full speed down MTB trails. And should you push your capabilities just a bit too far, the superb range of protective features add safety should you take a tumble. Take on The Trails with ConfidenceThe construction method of the Tectal race 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 further enhance structural stability and improve penetration protection.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 Race 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.MIPS Integra Head Protection SolutionThe Tectal Race also features the MIPS Integra system.

POC Octal MIPS Road Cycling HelmetLightweight, highly ventilated and featuring the protection of MIPS, the POC Octal MIPS Road Cycling Helmet offers cutting-edge performance and head protection on the bike. 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 CoreAt 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. Go With the FlowProtection is of course paramount. But comfort is also vital, and here the Octal MIPS excels. Firstly, large forward airflow vents are engineered to draw in air, internal channels keep the flow smooth and large exhaust vents dispel warm damp air. Cooling airflow is the result. POC also use Coolbest padding inside. This temperature-regulating pad minimises temperature build-up at the helmet to head contact points. Lastly, a lightweight size adjustment system makes getting the right fit remarkably quick and easy. The right fit means greater comfort and more security should you fall.

POC Ventral MIPS HelmetStreamlined. Cool. Protective. The POC Ventral MIPS Helmet offers exemplary performance for the most demanding of cyclists who love to push themselves faster and further. Aero and Cool All the WayPOC has taken a keen focus on smooth and streamlined performance with their Ventral MIPS Helmet. At the same time, ventilation has also been optimized without compromising that aero focus. Utilising the Venturi effect, the Ventral's airflow zones allow the helmet to pass through the air with greater efficiency, making it faster.Meanwhile, the 22-degree trailing edge manages residual air travelling around the helmet surface, minimising turbulence to enhance aerodynamic performance further. By leading air through rather than around the helmet, its wake is also minimized, while ventilation and cooling inside are turbo-charged. Powerful ProtectionBut not just fast and cooling it's incredibly protective too. The high-performance EPS liner is multi-density to offer optimal protection in key areas while also balancing the need for low weight. Added to this is the fully wrapped unibody shell construction, increasing both the durability and helmet integrity in the event of an accident.MIPS Integra Head Protection SolutionThe Ventral also features the MIPS Integra system. This brings together POC's 'whole-helmet' safety and design ethos with the fully integrated brain-protecting technology of MIPS. This holistic approach sees every detail of the helmet engineered to work in harmony with each other, giving you new levels of seamless safety, comfort, ventilation, fit and function.MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents.
