POCBike-Helmets 10721

I upgraded from a cheaper Giro helmet, to POC. The fit is great, and there's really good air flow. I love the citrine color! The stock photos looked a little washed out, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but it's even better in person.For those saying that the straps don't fit well - they are adjustable. You can move the straps forward or back using the plastic bracket. I had to do this to get a good fit for myself. I also had to lengthen the chin strap, which is by the chin clip (not pictured).Overall, I recommend this helmet for cyclists!

After reading all the reviews I was a bit nervous. My head is 59cm so I am at the top of the medium and just in the middle of the large. I chose medium. It fit just right. I can even where a hat under it. The straps were tight to the ears, but as i adjusted the straps through the spreader piece based on how the helmet sits on my head, the straps ended up sitting just perfect under my ears. I love this helmet.

The media could not be loaded.  Nice light weight helmet, 9 air Vents , nice color.

I started riding my bike a few years ago and bought a $30 helmet and thought it was fine. It was alway a bit uncomfortable and I finally decided to find a better helmet. I read the reviews and decided that a POC was what I wanted but was a little skeptical about the sizing and if it was really worth spending the extra money. I measured my head, as recommended on POC’s website, and ordered a medium. I am a 5’2” woman and I wasn’t sure if a medium was right. Usually, I wear a small in anything unisex. I tried it on an made some simple adjustments and it fits me perfectly! It is so comfortable that I can’t believe I didn’t buy it sooner. Buying a POC is well worth the extra money!

Overall a very nice and very pricey helmet. I’m writing this review to cover a few things that aren’t mentioned very much.To start with, it’s a very comfortable and well ventilated helmet. I have a 59cm (7 3/8”) head that is a bit “long oval” in shape. The size medium Omne helmet fits about as well as I could hope.This helmet also has a couple reflective sticker strips, one on the front of the helmet and one on the back. It’s not much but it’s appreciated.It has the “Spin” pads that minimize rotational forces to the brain in the event of an accident. I prefer Spin to MIPS because MIPS has a tendency to make creaking noises in my helmet as well as arguably take up head space within the helmet. For example, I tried on two Giro Synthe helmets a few months ago, one with MIPS and one without. The one WITH MIPS was surprisingly too tight on my head. The one without MIPS was a perfect fit. With POC’s Spin technology, it is merely gel pads that replace the normal pads. If anything, the gel pads add comfort along with the increased safety.Also, the straps do not catch my stubble as much as previous helmets have. My old POC Crane and Bern helmets were notorious for that. The Omne uses a thinner fabric as well as a little sleeve that slides along the strap. I believe the sleeves main purpose is to hold the extra strap slack, but it also doubles as a chin “rest.”The only thing that would really improve this helmet for me is a removable ball cap style visor. Not only are these incredibly functional for various kinds of weather, they also go a long way toward changing up the style/vibe of a helmet. They add an instant “urban commuter” look that makes the helmet seem a bit more casual and a bit more..... “cool”?The only reason I am not rating this helmet 5 stars is the price. It’s fairly expensive compared to other helmets on the market and for that reason alone I’d have a hard time recommending it to family and friends. If it were half the price, it’d be an obvious 5 star helmet.

Buen casco

Very easy to adjust straps for a comfortable fit. Doesn’t ventilate as well as some of my previous helmets with more and larger vents, but seems slightly more aerodynamic. On my forehead during heavy sweating, the sweat does fall down the front of my face when not cruising along due to the long contact surface on the brow, but this long contact surface is more comfortable than helmets that rely on other contact points (higher up on the head). Overall, the best helmet I have owned in decades.

Light enough and fits well. Looks good too. Bought this for my orange road/crit bike and a black one for all others. I’ve accumulated a stable of bikes over 40 years.

I've had a couple of rides now with this helmet and really like it, a step up from my Spiuk Dharma helmet.Very comfortable, feels like it surrounds your head rather than sitting on top and the ventilation works well.The helmet seems to generate little wind noise, a quiet hiss, I always thought a car was behind me with my other helmet.The straps are comfortable, the splitter taking the straps easily past my ears without annoyingly touching my earlobes. You can adjust the straps a slight amount but would be better if could move them a bit more.The padding is comfortable and the helmet feels very sturdy when on.The only real negative is that it feels (and is) heavier compared to previous helmets but makes up for that by being amazingly comfy.

j'ai acheté ce casque pour son rapport qualité/prix qui me semblait correct. (promo -20%)il a une super finition.(un POC)bonne ventilation, bon reglage.la coupe qui me convient parfaitement (je fais un 57... je suis donc souvent entre deux tailles)je ne le sens pas.s'il faut donner des moins:- pas de protection insecte et comme il a des bonnes ouvertures c'est un risque.- le support lunette est bien mais attention de bien enfoncer les branches.

This helmet arrived within 24 hours of order, free delivery !!I researched compact helmets, decided this was my best option, I wasn’t wrong, take a look.I’ve been a regular cyclist since the1960s , owned about 10 helmets, Specialized and Kask, this POC is the first one that actually in my honest opinion, looks the way I want a helmet to look, not bulbous, mushroom shaped or just downright silly.Its a medium, I’m around 58 cm, I made a few adjustments and it fits like a glove, a tiny bit heavier than previous helmets but worth every gram, yet to ride a bike with it on, but who cares about minor details like that, it looks good, that makes me feel good !!!£104 is not too much money these days, it’s equipped with the latest levels of protection, and it may just save your life into the bargain, what’s not to like ?

Il casco in oggetto è cromaticamente bello, tutto bianco con una pennellata arancione nel retro che si sposa perfettamente con la mia KTM. La regolazione della calzata della testa si raggiunge facilmente e trasmette un buon feeling una volta che lo si indossa (ovviamente comprando la taglia adeguata). Buone le finiture della scocca, la chiusura e la morbidezza delle cinghie di fissaggio . Quello che mi ha impressionato è l’ingombro esterno molto ridotto notevolmente inferiore ad altri caschi. A 109,00 euro questo modello credo non lo si trova da nessuna altra parte. Nella confezione( arrivata perfettamente sigillata ) c’è anche un sacco in tela porta casco tipo motociclista per non fargli prendere polvere. Accessorio Bello utile e prezioso che ti trasmette una sensazione di attenzione anche ai dettagli. Bravi questi svedesi!

POC is an award winning Swedish company with a strong mission to do the best it can to possibly save lives and to reduce serious injuries and as well as a range of helmets they also do apparel. I did a lot of research to arrive at purchasing a POC helmet as they don’t come cheap but though there were many mixed reviews out there overall they were good and have a solid background in safety in sports and offer great design too.This the POC Omne Air Spin is their entry level helmet which I purchased at a very good price all due to my patience. The POC Omne Air is well ventilated for those who get a little too hot and sizing is good which it has an adjustable dial system that tightens through the entire helmet and comes with their version of MIPS system known as SPIN (Shearing Pad INside), which is their patent-pending silicone pad technology system. It comes in a nice box but also with a dust cover for when not in use.As I previously mentioned before it is a great design as is all the other helmets in the range which all come in some really interesting colours, mine is the Zinc Orange and White which was my compromise at the time but overall goes very well with my cycling gear and the Orange actually is good from a drivers perspective in being seen and weighs in at 305g (Medium). Overall, I am happy and hopefully I won’t need to find out how safe it really is.
