POC Ventral AIR MIPS NFC HelmetCreated to offer safety and protection for the adventurous cyclist, the POC Ventral AIR MIPS NFC Helmet uses MIPS to protect during a crash and a twICEme® NFC Medical ID chip to allow for care after a crash.Let the Ventral do the TalkingWhen you’re cycling, crashing is something that can always be a possibility, and in most cases, while you'll be battered and bruised, you'll soon be on your way again. However, there may be a time when you’re not able to simply dust yourself down and carry on riding. It’s here the Ventral AIR MIPS NFC Helmet comes in. It features a twICEme® NFC Medical ID chip, letting you store vital medical and emergency contact details. With an NFC-enabled smartphone first responders can read the chip and make the best treatment decisions there and then.Fast ProtectionEngineered with aerodynamics at the forefront, the Ventral Air is one slippery performer. Tested extensively and designed using CFD to hone its aerodynamic performance, this is a helmet that won't slow you down. The careful design also extends to the ventilation, with airflow optimized via internal channels keeping you fresh at both slow and high speeds, without compromising aero performance.But not just fast 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 AIR 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 Ventral in place, you’ll find POC’s lightweight 360° fit 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.
