Protect Your Brain With This Durable Helmet
Stay safe on your rides with powerful protective advances to keep the head cool and comfortable. Whether on the morning commute or a long weekend club ride, the POC Octal MIPS Helmet pushes you to go further. Added safety features like durable construction and MIPS technology keep you safe wherever you like to ride.
A composition of high-quality EPS liner provides optimal density thanks to a thicker core in protection zones for ideal all-round, multipurpose protection. The fully wrapped unibody shell enhances structural integrity for the gear you feel safe wearing. Multiple ventilation channels and low weight are inspired by POC's multiple award-winning road cycling helmets to deliver optimum comfort and functionality on longer rides.
By taking our whole-helmet approach to the creation of the POC Octal MIPS, this helmet delivers superior levels of comfort, fit and performance, and features a host of safety systems. The helmet also features the MIPS Brain Protection System, the one-of-a-kind safety feature that reduces the impacts of harmful rotational forces — keeping you safe if danger were to happen.
Features:
Rotational motion can cause brain injuries; with MIPS, a low-friction layer slides 10 to 15 mm in all directions, reducing rotational motion to the brain during impact
High-performance EPS liner is strategically thicker in the most exposed areas to enhance protection; straps are molded into the liner
Fully wrapped unibody shell enhances structural integrity while maintaining a low weight
Protection is heightened with extended coverage over the temples and at the back of the head
With distinctive design, this extremely lightweight helmet provides generous ventilation and comfort
Size adjustment system
Eye garage keeps your sunglasses securely in position when placed on the helmet

The Best Bike Equipment for the Results

This helmet saved my wife's life from a crash. I had $30,000 in expenses but no funeral expense. Afterwards I bought POC helmets for my sons, their wives and four grandchildren, plus an update to MIPS version for me. Worth every penny.
