Cycling helmet guide
Looking for a helmet but don't know where to start? There are a few things to consider. First, it's essential to know if you're looking for a mountain biking helmet or a cycling helmet. An enduro MTB rider will need good ventilation, all-over skull protection, and an optional sun visor for sunnier days. They'll also want the helmet to be compatible with goggle-wearing without blocking the ventilation systems.
For everyday road cycling, a different kind of helmet is required. POC offers a great range of lightweight but highly protective helmets. Perfect for a commute to work or long bike rides, they all come with optimum ventilation and are fully adjustable.
Key design features of POC helmets
POC creates a wide range of MTB helmets, including the popular Kortal and Tectal designs. These helmets feature:
- Fold up sun visors
- Innovative design that ensures goggle straps will not obstruct the ventilation channels
- Polycarbonate outer
- Aramid fabric fibre inner which gives increased protection and durability
- Extended cover at temples and back of the head
Another popular POC MTB helmets design is the Coron series, which are all-over helmets with a range of exceptional, cutting-edge features and components. These helmets are an excellent choice for safety and comfort when doing enduro and downhill MTB.
POC's cycle helmets are a perfect combination of form and function for all road cyclists. Their cycle helmets offer:
- Ventilation for a cooler head while riding
- Slim silhouettes with a good fit
- SPIN (Shearing Pas In Side) technology — silicone pads that increase the protective qualities of the helmets
- Lightweight materials
Some of the most popular designs are the Omne Air SPIN and the Ventral Air SPIN, which feature SPIN technology in their construction. The SPIN pads give even more protection against falls by utilising oblique impact angle theories.
All of their cycle helmets come in a range of different sizes as well as being fully adjustable within each different size.

As well as helmets, POC also offers a range of accessories for your ride. You'll find POC MTB jerseys and cycling jerseys, as well as MTB jackets and socks, in their collection. Their jerseys offer another layer of protection when you ride while being fully ventilated. They're fully compatible with POC back and elbow protectors and form an essential part of your kit.
