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. 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.FeaturesHigh-performance EPS liner, optimized in densityFully wrapped unibody shell constructionGenerously ventilated, using POC's unique ventilation designSize adjustment systemStraps moulded into linerTemperature regulating Coolbest paddingEye garage to keep your sunglasses securely in position when placed on the helmetMIPS Brain Protection SystemWeight: 210g (S), 220g (M), 245g (L)CERTIFIED EN 1078, CPSC 12.03, AS/NZ 2063Shop all MIPS helmets - Click hereBuy POC Helmets from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

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.

POC Tectal MTB HelmetThe POC Tectal MTB Helmet has been designed to meet the demands of aggressive trail and enduro mountain bikers. Cutting edge protection, turbo-charged airflow and cool Scandinavian design make it a trail-slaying winner. 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 ConfidenceThe 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 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 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 ComfortWhen 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 SystemIn order to keep the Tectal in place, you’ll find POC’s lightweight 360° fit system.
