POC Tectal HelmetPOC's Tectal is a well-ventilated helmet that has been specifically designed for aggressive Trail riding and Enduro racing and incorporates the aramid bridges system from POC's proven and award-winning Trabec helmet.The reinforced EPS liner provides a high level of protection while the unibody shell construction, introduced in POC's ground breaking Octal road cycling helmet, further enhances the safety properties and construction integrity of the helmet while maintaining a low weight.The Tectal offers more coverage than conventional mountain bike helmets and has a highly efficient ventilation design, optimised and evaluated through wind tunnel testing, while the lightweight size adjustment system ensures a comfortable and secure fit.Features:EPS linerOuter PC shellUnibody shell constructionAramid fibre grid for protection and durabilityDesigned to provide more coverage at temples and back of headSize adjustment systemAdjustable visorRecco reflectorCertifications: EN 1078, CPSC 12.03, AS/NZ 2063:2008Weight: 340gTechnologies:Aramid Bridge: When looking for low weight in combination with a tough and durable structure, POC added aramid in strategic locations just under the outer shell and moulded it together with the foam liner material to ensure durability and protection. The unbreakable aramid weave bonds with the foam liner, adding a totally new structural stability. The concept was first launched in POC's Trabec helmet.Buy POC Protection from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

First proven on the Ritchey TRAIL stem, the C220 handlebar clamp design creates a more secure interface by wrapping a full 220 degrees over the handlebar. Bolt forces are aligned with the clamp so that the stem body ‘embraces’ the handlebar, which is less prone to damaging lightweight bars. This clamp design allows for a lighter faceplate and stem body with no sacrifice in strength or stiffness. The Carbon Matrix stem body is forged 7075 aluminum with a stiffness-enhancing carbon exoskeleton which makes this 12% stiffer than the WCS alloy C220 stem. Premium quality CRMO steel bolts are used throughout.
Ritchey WCS Matrix C220 Carbon StemEnsuring a solid and secure fitment to your bar, this forged aluminium stem uses a carbon exoskeleton to retain a stiff and supportive performance as you go all-out on the trails. Easy to install and remove thanks to its Press-Fit clamp design, it envelopes your bar to a full 220°, aligning the bolt forces for a tight "embrace". Featuring a 42mm-wide faceplate and Matte UD carbon finish, this is a quality-made stem, built to deal with the rigours of rowdy off-road riding.

Bell XR Spherical Helmet (MIPS)Comfort, protection and low weight meet in perfect harmony with the Bell XR Spherical Helmet (MIPS). For cyclists who seek superb function and streamlined design, it's hard to beat. If you love to mix it up in the frenetic atmosphere of a race pack and love to push your fitness in training, the XR Spherical Helmet (MIPS) ensures you have the finest level of protection should you get caught up in a crash. Thanks to its Fusion In-Mould construction, the XR Spherical is strong, durable and reliable at soaking up head impacts from a crash. The progressive layering of both inner and outer EPS foam layers gives shock-absorbing protection against both slow-speed and high-speed impacts. This delivers a more comprehensive level of protection than standard helmets.Meanwhile, the polycarbonate outer adds structural strength, allowing Bell to reduce weight and increase vent size without compromising protection levels while also adding durability. MIPS® Spherical TechnologyWhen it comes to advanced head protection it doesn't get much better than the MIPS® Spherical Technology. This ball and socket system is designed to reduce the rotational forces of impacts to the head. This is achieved via the dual-layer system whereby the helmet outer is able to rotate around the inner liner during a crash. 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.Float Fit™ Race (integrated with MIPS)This minimalist fit system ensures you can quickly and easily achieve the most comfortable fit of your helmet. The easy-to-turn dial features an over-moulded rubber grip so you can operate it easily, even on the fly. And it's light too - always a win for performance cyclists. Feature-packed Performance With its 18 vents, you can be confident you'll always have a rush of cool air over your head. And when you do build up a sweat, the Sweat Guide™ system at the brow moves sweat away from the bow pad and prevents it from running into your eyes. Ionic+ Comfort Padding also fights the build-up of bacteria, preventing itching and maintaining freshness. A Fidlock Magnetic Buckle makes it quick and easy to put on and pull off your helmet while No-Twist Tri-Glides™ make sure adjustment straps are always in the right place and kept flat.Features:Fusion In-Mould Polycarbonate Shell with Progressive LayeringSpherical Technology powered by MIPS®Float Fit Race SystemIonic+ Comfort PaddingFidlock Magnetic BuckleNo-Twist Tri-Glides™Sweat Guide™18 Vents including Overbrow VentilationCertified to CE EN1078Weight: 285 grams (size M)Shop all MIPS helmets - Click hereBuy Bell Helmets from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Kask Wasabi Aero Road Helmet (WG11)The Kask Wasabi Aero Road Helmet (WG11) brings together smooth aerodynamics and a unique sliding panel to let you regulate temperature and airflow to meet the demands of the weather and your ride. While the Wasabi Aero Road Helmet (WG11) is certainly streamlined, second only to the Utopia in Kask's wind-tunnel test, it's how it lets you regulate airflow and temperature where it excels. Aero. Warm. Cool. You ChooseThe Wasabi Aero tackles heat regulation via an innovative sliding front panel. This lets you maintain low-drag performance as the pace increases or you can boost or restrict airflow as and when needed. Closing the vent keeps your head warmer during colder weather conditions, ideal for winter training and early season racing. But pop it open when the heat rises and you have more cooling airflow.Even with the sliding panel open, the drag increase is minimal (with a claimed 1-watt drag increase at 50 km/h). But this helmet isn't just about heat regulation and aerodynamics, your comfort and safety are of course key characteristics too. WG11 Safety TestThe Wasabi Aero passes the stringent WG11 test. This focuses on protection from rotational impact forces, measuring rotational kinematics from both oblique and normal impacts. With this safety test passed, you can be sure this helmet has you covered should you be unfortunate enough to fall from your bike.Naturally ComfortableInside the helmet, you'll find pads made with merino wool. These pads are excellent at regulating temperature and wicking away moisture, boosting comfort whatever the weather. And with natural bacterial resistance, itchy scalps and nasty smells are prevented. Kask Octo-FitThe Wasabi uses Kask's super-adjustable Octo-Fit system for a perfect fit every time. A rubberised Micro-Dial adjuster provides easy adjustment with a quick twist. Meanwhile, the floating cradle features contact points and supports designed to oscillate freely through 180°, allowing a secure fit on any shaped head. The Skeletal Brackets of the cradle have been engineered and refined to provide the best fit and support while being as light as possible too.Features:Sliding vent panel - when closed increases temperature by up to 1.5 degrees CKask Octo-Fit systemMerino wool paddingPasses WG11 International Safety TestWeight: 290g (M)Buy Kask Helmets from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
