POC is a Swedish innovator and manufacturer of next level body protection and apparel for cycling and snow sports. Their prime motive is to potentially save lives and dramatically reduce the consequences of accidents, working alongside anatomy specialists and athletes alike to produce the best hardware possible.
The Octal X Mips further develops the award-winning Octal road helmet, tailoring it to the needs of the gravel and cyclocross riders. With an extended shell covering more of the helmet liner compared to the Octal, the Octal X Mips benefits from enhanced strength properties at a very low weight.
Features shared with the Octal include the extreme ventilation, aerodynamic efficiency, a unibody shell construction and an EPS liner, as well as POC's proven aramid bridge technology, giving extra strength and penetration protection. All these features come as part of our whole-helmet approach to design and construction in order to deliver superior levels of comfort, fit and performance. The inclusion of Mips enhances the helmet's rotational impact protection.
