FAQs

What is MIPS and why is it important?

MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) is a safety technology designed to reduce rotational forces on the brain during angled impacts. It consists of a low-friction layer inside the helmet that allows the helmet to slide relative to the head during an impact, providing enhanced protection.

How do I clean my POC Ventral Air MIPS helmet?

Clean the helmet with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry. Avoid using solvents or abrasive cleaners. The EPS liner should only be cleaned with a damp cloth.

What is the warranty period for this helmet?

POC typically offers a warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official POC warranty documentation or contact your retailer for specific details on the warranty period and coverage for your region.

Can I use this helmet for activities other than road cycling?

While optimized for road cycling and mountain biking, its design with MIPS and robust construction makes it suitable for general cycling activities where head protection is required. However, it is not certified for extreme sports like skiing or skateboarding.

How do I determine the correct size?

Measure the circumference of your head about one inch above your eyebrows. Compare this measurement to the sizing chart provided by POC. The 'L/56-61' designation on the model indicates a size range in centimeters.

What does the 'CFD tested' product highlight mean?

CFD stands for Computational Fluid Dynamics. This highlight indicates that the helmet's aerodynamic performance and airflow characteristics have been analyzed and optimized using advanced computer simulations.

Can I attach an accessory light or camera to this helmet?

The helmet is not designed with integrated mounts for accessories like lights or cameras. Attaching accessories not specifically designed for the helmet could compromise its structural integrity and safety. Please consult the product manual or POC support for recommendations.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels too tight or causes pressure points.

Loosen the rear adjustment dial and reposition the helmet on your head. Ensure the fit system is correctly routed and not twisted. Readjust for a snug, comfortable fit without excessive pressure.

Eyewear doesn't fit securely in the eye garage.

Ensure your eyewear temples are thin enough to fit the designated slots. Try different angles for insertion. The eye garage is designed for standard cycling glasses; very bulky frames may not fit.

Ventilation seems insufficient during intense efforts.

While designed for supreme cooling, performance is speed-dependent. Ensure no obstructions are blocking the ventilation ports. For very slow climbing, natural airflow is reduced, and the helmet's internal channeling will still provide some benefit.

Strap adjustment is difficult.

Ensure the Y-splitters for the chin straps are positioned just below the earlobes. Adjust the length of the straps so they lie flat against the face and are snug but not constricting. The center buckle should be positioned under the chin.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional ventilation for superior cooling on long rides.
  • Enhanced safety with MIPS technology for rotational impact protection.
  • Aerodynamically optimized design to minimize drag.
  • Lightweight construction for comfort during extended use.
  • Secure and adjustable fit for a personalized experience.
  • Practical integrated solution for eyewear storage.

Cons

  • May be more expensive than standard helmets.
  • Specific fit adjustment might require some initial tuning.
  • White color may show dirt more easily on mountain biking trails.
  • Focus on ventilation might mean fewer padding options compared to some helmets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Adjust the size using the lightweight dial system located at the rear of the helmet until a snug and comfortable fit is achieved. The system should ensure the helmet remains stable without excessive pressure points.
  2. The eye garage is designed to hold most standard cycling eyewear securely. Simply slide the temples of your glasses into the designated slots.

Compatibility:

This helmet is designed for road cycling and mountain biking activities. It is compatible with most standard cycling eyewear. The 'Whole Helmet Concept™' ensures that components work cohesively for safety.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the helmet shell and straps with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the materials.
  • EPS Liner: The EPS liner should be cleaned gently with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents or petroleum-based products on the EPS liner, as this can compromise its integrity.
  • Storage: Store the helmet in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing it where it might be crushed or damaged.
