The POC Crane MIPS Protective Helmet in black is a high-performance head protection solution engineered specifically for urban cyclists and daily commuters. This helmet integrates the advanced MIPS Brain Protection System, which is designed to reduce rotational forces transmitted to the brain during an angled impact. By combining safety technology with a functional design, it offers a reliable barrier for riders navigating busy city streets.
Advantages
The primary benefit of the POC Crane MIPS is its dual-density EPS liner, which is strategically constructed to manage a wide range of impact energies. The harder outer section handles high-energy impacts, while the softer inner section provides protection against lower-energy impacts, ensuring comprehensive safety. Furthermore, the helmet features a lightweight construction that minimizes neck strain during long rides, complemented by an easy-to-use adjustment system that ensures a secure and personalized fit for various head shapes.
Suitable for
- Urban cycling and daily commuting
- City riding in diverse traffic conditions
- Cyclists prioritizing rotational impact protection
This helmet may not be suitable for professional downhill mountain biking or high-speed competitive road racing, as it is specifically optimized for the demands of urban environments. It is also not intended for motorized vehicle use or activities requiring specialized safety certifications beyond standard cycling protection.

To use the helmet, place it level on your head and adjust the rear dial until the fit is snug but comfortable. Ensure the chin strap is fastened securely, allowing enough space for two fingers between the strap and your chin. The side straps should form a V-shape just below your ears to maintain stability during movement.
What to consider before purchase
- Measure your head circumference to ensure the correct size selection
- Verify the helmet is compatible with your preferred eyewear
- Check the adjustment system for ease of use with gloves
Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the helmet for signs of wear or damage, especially after any impact. Clean the outer shell with mild soap and water, and avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents that could compromise the integrity of the materials. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
