POC Octal RACEDAY : Garminium Blue

Season:2015

Brand:POC

Code:P

Swedish company POC have created several ranges of road cycling apparel to suit all situations from their Essential and AVIP ranges through to their high performance and technical Raceday line. In road cycling there are many crucial facets affecting performance. Aerodynamics, comfort, thermoregulation, breathability and freedom of movement are just a few examples of areas that have to be considered and addressed. In an era of marginal gains where the smallest performance advantage can make all the difference, POC have worked closely with some of the most talented engineers and makers and have carefully researched and chosen fabrics; incorporated different technologies and treatments and worked to achieve aerodynamic efficiency and to improve comfort and breathability across the Raceday range.

Drawing on years of mountain bike and ski helmet development, POC have turned their attention to road helmets. New approaches to the strategic use of EPS, ventilation, aerodynamics, visibility and POC’s unique unibody construction have yielded improved protection combined with ultimate performance.

The Octal helmet is already an award winner and it offers optimal ventilation and comfort in a package that won't make your head sag, weighing as it does just 200g (size medium). To enhance safety, the Octal provides more coverage and additional protection for the temples and back of the head and the EPS liner is strategically thicker in the most exposed areas. POC's fully wrapped unibody shell construction functions as a monocoque and enhances the safety properties and construction integrity of the helmet while maintaining a low weight.

Unlike traditional helmets, POC has approached ventilation in a unique way and instead of using many small vents, the Octal has fewer but larger ventilation slots. This ventilation design allows more air to flow through the helmet, which paradoxically also results in improved aerodynamic performance!

The lightweight size adjustment system ensures a comfortable and secure fit while the Coolbest padding helps reduce the temperature at the interface between the helmet and head. The Octal is by far, one of the most comfortable sitting helmets we have worn in recent years.
