Mips Air Node is an advanced safety system designed to reduce rotational forces on the brain during angled impacts, enhancing the helmet's protective capabilities.
The POC Amidal MIPS is specifically designed for road cycling, prioritizing aerodynamics and lightweight comfort for fast riding. While it offers excellent protection, it may not have the extended coverage or specific features required for aggressive mountain biking.
The correct size will feel snug and secure without causing pressure points or headaches. It should sit level on your head, with the front rim about one or two finger-widths above your eyebrows. Use the adjustable fit system for fine-tuning.
Yes, you can wear a thin cycling cap. However, wearing a cap may affect the fit and the effectiveness of the helmet's ventilation and retention system. Ensure the fit remains secure after adding a cap.
While helmets do not have a strict expiry date, it is generally recommended to replace a cycling helmet every 3-5 years, or immediately after any significant impact, as the materials can degrade over time and lose their protective properties.
Most interior padding can be removed. Hand wash it gently with mild soap and cool water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before reattaching it to the helmet.
Adjust the 360-degree fit system dial at the rear of the helmet. Turn clockwise to tighten and counter-clockwise to loosen until a secure yet comfortable fit is achieved. Ensure the retention system is properly seated.
Readjust the strap dividers located just below your ears. They should form a 'V' shape that meets just below the earlobe. Ensure the chin strap is snug but not constricting.
Ensure the air vents are not blocked by debris or hair. For optimal airflow, make sure the helmet is positioned correctly on your head, allowing air to channel effectively.
Immediately discontinue use. Even if damage is not visible, the protective EPS liner may be compromised. Replace the helmet to ensure continued safety.
Setup: The helmet features an adjustable 360-degree fit system. To adjust, simply turn the dial located at the rear of the helmet until a snug and secure fit is achieved. Ensure the helmet sits level on your head, covering the forehead, and that the straps are comfortably positioned under your ears.
Compatibility: This helmet is designed for adult road cyclists. It is compatible with most eyewear designed for cycling helmets. The Mips Air Node system is integrated within the helmet's structure.
Care: To clean the helmet, use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the helmet's materials. The internal padding can often be removed for hand washing with mild soap and allowed to air dry completely before reinserting. Always store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
