## Long description

The POC Octal MIPS in Matt Black is a high-performance road cycling helmet engineered to provide an ideal balance between safety, weight, and airflow. Designed for cyclists who demand reliability during long-distance rides and competitive events, this helmet incorporates the MIPS Brain Protection System to mitigate rotational forces during an impact. Its unibody shell construction ensures structural integrity while maintaining a lightweight profile, making it a preferred choice for riders seeking both comfort and advanced protection.
Advantages
The helmet features a sophisticated design with fewer but larger ventilation ports, which significantly improves airflow to keep the rider cool during intense efforts or hot weather conditions. The EPS liner is strategically thickened in high-risk impact zones to offer superior protection where it is most required. Furthermore, the lightweight size adjustment system and adjustable chin straps allow for a precise and secure fit, ensuring the helmet remains comfortable even during extended periods of use.
Suitable for
Road cycling and racing
Long-distance endurance rides
Training sessions in warm weather
This helmet may not be suitable for mountain biking or downhill disciplines, as it lacks the extended rear coverage and visor typically required for off-road terrain. It is also not intended for use in motorized sports or activities requiring specialized safety certifications beyond cycling standards.
Key specifications
MIPS Brain Protection System
Unibody shell construction
Optimized ventilation design
Lightweight EPS liner
Adjustable size and chin strap system
Matt finish
To use the helmet, place it level on your head so that it covers your forehead without obstructing your vision. Adjust the rear retention dial until the fit is snug but comfortable, ensuring the helmet does not shift during movement. Finally, adjust the chin straps so that they form a V-shape under your ears and the buckle sits securely under your chin, allowing enough space for two fingers between the strap and your skin.
What to consider before purchase
Measure your head circumference to ensure the correct size selection
Verify compatibility with your preferred cycling eyewear
Check that the helmet sits level on the forehead for maximum protection
For optimal safety, replace the helmet immediately if it has been involved in an impact, even if no visible damage is present. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and avoid using harsh chemicals for cleaning.
