Why We Like The Octal MIPS Helmet

POC designed the Octal MIPS Road Cycling Helmet with the longest, hottest tours and races in mind. It balances optimal ventilation with modern safety features like MIPS technology, which uses a rotational liner to help dissipate shock from the sides. We also appreciate the eye garage to store sunglasses when we're riding.

Great fit

After my first day with this helmet, it was my favorite. Great fit, best strap system ever, and orange is extremely high visibility.

Not for big heads.

Familiarity:
I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Awesome looking helmet. Unfortunately with my taller head it sat super high and looked like I had an alien head 😂. Luckily I was able to return it without issue.

Almost don’t realize I’m wearing a helm!

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

Sizing: I used the POC sizing guide, I measured towards the max end of the medium, went with the medium fits grate, I still have for a skull cap when the weather get chilly. The chin strap is easy to adjust.

Lightweight and super air flow

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

I've now done about a half dozen rides in this lid. Very light feeling and was basically as easy a possible to put on and go. I've noticed that the chin strap seems to loosen on its own volition from time to time. The rest of the retention system feels very secure. I typically wear a skull cap or standard, brimmed cycling cap under my helmet. For the most part, I've not had any issues but there a couple cap / sunglass combinations wherein I've felt like everything is being smooshed. Not a big deal when I consider the ripping deal I got on this lid.

Really liking the helmet so far, ordered a small on the 50% off deal, when it came it was too small so when I went to switch it out they only had the “2023” models in medium that where back at $200 so I ended up ordering the “2023” helmet that looks the exact same and I can’t find a single difference. Helmet came all dusty. Still a nice helmet! Best one I’ve owned yet!

Cool Helemt

Familiarity:

I know POC has a good reputation for making quallity products but honestly I wanted this helmet for it's looks. What I didn't know is that the ventilation is outstanding, I was pleasantly surprised to feel the air flowing through and keeping you cool, so good looking and cool on hot summer days, very happy with my new helmet!
