Product Description

Fast. Safe. The Cytal is the ultimate choice for racers looking for a safe racing helmet that still provides ventilation, airflow and comfort at both low and high speeds.

An aero choice for everyday, the Cytal combines aerodynamic efficiency with speed and extra protection. Shaped for efficient ventilation and airflow, the Cytal features an integrated wing to aid airflow and enhance structural stability. With air guided both above and below the helmet, the wing works to improve both aerodynamic performance and ventilation.

With large channels throughout the helmet, airflow both through and around the helmet is fully controlled for optimal cooling at both low and high speeds, making this a natural choice for larger group rides and racing.

Developed for ultimate protection, each part of the helmet works to support the others to give the most reliable protection. The helmet shell features a denser top section and thicker zones across the forehead to help minimise deformation during an impact, helping to ensure the Mips Air Node rotational impact protection system works most effectively.

A lower-density EPS is used in the lower sections of the helmet, keeping weight low.

Vital for safety is that the helmet sits comfortably and securely, and therefore it features a 360° fit system, as well as adjustable strap dividers under the ear, so that the fit of each helmet can be tailored for absolute comfort.

Key Benefits

Ventilated 

Key Features

  • Large Airflow Channels - Deep channels running through the helmet support airflow across the whole head.
  • Dual Density EPS Liner - The helmet liner features two densities of EPS (expanded polystyrene), with a denser upper part and less dense lower section, delivering optimised crash protection while keeping weight low.
  • Integrated Wing - The helmet features an integrated wing to support structural stability and improve airflow both through and around the helmet.

Product Features

  • Adjustable strap dividers - The strap dividers beneath the ears are fully adjustable, making it easy to find a precise and secure fit
  • Certifications - this helmet is certified to one or more of the following standards: EN 1078, CPSC 1203, AS/NZS 2063

Product Science

Finite Element Modelling (FEM) - Created to question many more safety variables, our FEM process ensures that we deliver products that live up to our internal safety demands and is the process that influenced the carbon wing.

The Cube - The Cube is an internal database containing nearly a million real-world data points used to give us insights into how we can refine the performance of our helmets.

CFD simulation and testing - Competitive cyclists optimize every pedal stroke to deliver pure forward motion. Several details need to align to create precise forward motion on a bike, such as fitness, power, and technique, all of which are basic building blocks to building speed.

What is the POC Cytal helmet?

The Cytal is the ultimate helmet choice for any rider looking for safety and ventilation at any speed, designed for maximum safety, aerodynamic efficiency and comfort on high-speed rides. Some key features include:

  • An integrated wing enhances structural stability and improves airflow both through and around the helmet.
  • Designed for road cyclists seeking top-tier protection without compromising weight or ventilation.
  • Built to perform in long endurance rides, racing or high-intensity group rides.
  • Part of POC’s Whole Helmet Concept™, ensuring fit, protection, and comfort work together.

What safety features does the Cytal helmet have?

The Cytal combines advanced impact protection systems with proven helmet safety standards. Some key safety features include:

  • MIPS Air Node technology reduces rotational forces during angled impacts.
  • Dual-Density EPS Liner: The helmet liner features two densities of EPS (expanded polystyrene), with a denser upper part and less dense lower section, delivering optimised crash protection.
  • Reinforced protective zones protect parts of the head that are more likely to be impacted in a crash.
  • Rated 5-stars by Virginia Tech Helmet Ratings, one of the highest scores for road helmets.
  • Certified for CPSC 1203 (U.S.) compliance and EN 1078 standards for additional reassurance.

How does the Cytal perform in terms of ventilation?

The Cytal helmet is designed to offer excellent ventilation, keeping riders cool and comfortable during intense efforts.

  • The integrated wing to aid airflow and enhance structural stability. With air guided both above and below the helmet, the wing works to improve both aerodynamic performance and ventilation.
  • Large airflow channels running through the helmet support airflow across the whole head, ensuring optimal cooling at both low and high speeds.

Ultra-high density inserts in the perineal and ischiatic area that make it perfect for road and gravel riding. The central channel is engineered to support male anatomy while in saddle, reliving pressure from the prostate and favouring blood flow. he ECO Carbonium Flash top fabric combines a special channel structure with the natural antistatic and bacteriostatic properties of the Carbonium thread. With the channel structure, the extremely soft and recycled polyamide helps collect, canalize and expel moisture. Rapid-drying and eco-friendly.
