POC Octal X MIPS Cycling Helmet

The Octal X Mips takes the celebrated Octal road helmet to a new level, specifically designed to meet the demands of gravel and cyclocross riders. Compared to its predecessor, the Octal, the Octal X Mips features an extended shell that covers a larger portion of the helmet liner, resulting in improved strength properties without adding significant weight.

This helmet retains the exceptional ventilation, aerodynamic efficiency, and unibody shell construction of the original Octal. Additionally, it includes an EPS liner and POC's renowned aramid bridge technology, which provides enhanced strength and protection against penetration. All of these elements are part of POC's holistic approach to helmet design and construction, aimed at ensuring superior levels of comfort, fit, and performance. With the incorporation of Mips, the Octal X Mips offers added rotational impact protection.
