Let the Tectal do the Talking When you’re mountain biking, crashing is a part of the game. It’s how you progress. Get better. Push boundaries. However, there may be a time when you’re not able to simply dust yourself down and carry on riding. It’s here the POC Tectal Race 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. 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. Take on The Trails with Confidence The 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. MIPS Integra Head Protection Solution The Tectal Race 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.

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 System In order to keep the Tectal in place, you’ll find POC’s lightweight 360° fit system. This offers an easy-to-operate and precise fit, ensuring your helmet remains comfortable when riding and stays securely in place in the event of a crash.
The Tectal Race MIPS remains at the forefront of protection for all kinds of mountain bikers. One of the first helmets to adopt an extended shell design for extra protection across more of the head, the helmet has now been updated to include Mips for increased rotational impact protection.Developed using POC's Whole Helmet Concept™, the helmet delivers superior levels of comfort, fit and performance, for extra safety on the trails. An aramid bridge molded to the helmet liner enhances structural integrity and improves penetration protection, so you can ride with confidence even under low tree branches.The helmet's ventilation design has been tested and perfected in a wind tunnel, ensuring the helmet delivers lightweight, reliable protection while keeping you cool no matter how hard you push on the trails.MIPS IntegraThe latest technology from brain protection specialists MIPS enhances rotational impact protection.RECCO® ReflectorA RECCO® Reflector helps rescue services easily and quickly locate you if something goes wrong.EPS LinerA lightweight EPS liner gives optimized protection.Aramid BridgesAramid bridges are molded to the helmet liner to enhance structural stability and improve penetration protection.Unibody ShellThe unibody PC shell enhances the structural integrity of the helmetAdjustable 360° fitA 360° adjustment system makes it easy to find a secure, comfortable fit.Wind-tunnel tested ventilationThe helmet's ventilation has been optimized in a wind tunnel for maximum efficiency.Adjustable peakThe helmet peak can be adjusted for personalized protection from the elements.Extended protectionExtended zones around the temples and back of the head give extra protection in risk areas.
