POC Octal MIPS Road Cycling HelmetPOC take their already superbly protective and award-winning Octal and integrate MIPS brain-protection technology to create the POC Octal MIPS Road Cycling Helmet. The best just got better. 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 TechnologyThe MIPS Integra system brings together POC's 'whole-helmet' safety and design ethos with the 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 integrated safety, comfort, ventilation, aerodynamics, 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 Lite Road Cycling HelmetLight. Protective. Fast. The POC Ventral Lite Road Cycling Helmet has been developed to be all three. When low weight but high protection is your goal, this is the helmet to choose. Weight x SafetyPOC 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 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. Coming in at a svelte 200g (medium) you'll barely notice it's there. POC ProtectionDespite 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 CoolThe 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.FeaturesInternal channels control the airflow at high and low speedsExtreme cooling and ventilation thanks to innovative internal airflow designCFD-tested design minimizes turbulence and enhances aero performanceOptimized EPS liner for low weight and crash protectionWrapped unibody shell enhances the helmet's structural integrityLightweight 360-degree size adjustment system makes it easy to find a precise fitAdjustable straps anchored to the helmet linerEye garage keeps sunglasses secureWeight; 200g (M)CERTIFIED EN 1078, CPSC 12.03, AS/NZ 2063Buy 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.
