PROTECTED BY 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.
How to choose: Road cycling helmets
A helmet is vital for your safety, but it’s also a fundamental part of forming the perfect kit. Your helmet choice helps to define you as a cyclist, so it’s always important to choose carefully.
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.
What is the weight of the Cytal?
The Cytal is a lightweight road helmet, weighing approximately 270 grams in size M/L, ideal for performance-oriented riders.
