The claims about this helmet offering good ventilation are real. Living in Tx having a helmet that offers good protection along with excellent ventilation is vital. The POC delivers on all fronts. I switch off between this helmet and another brand. I like the airflow on the POC a bit better. It's stylist and has padding in all the right places. The carry bag is a nice adder. I wear a size L, this helmet fits true to size. However, I find that it can be a bit tight with a cycle cap. Overall, a excellent helmet. I would recommend it and buy it again.

A little more expensive of a helmet than I'd like to spend, but I bought it on sale with some store credit, so it made it a little more manageable. It's a very comfortable, light, and breathable helmet. I love the bright pink and it's very easy to spot on the road. This would only be a problem with someone with long hair, but my only complaint with it is it doesn't have a good spot on the backside to pull a pony tail through and have the tighten spot properly sitting on my occipital bone. So I have to result to a VERY low pony or a braid straight from my skull. A little annoying in comparison to my old helmet, but not enough to suffice returning it.

I've been riding with the POC Octal Mips Helmet now for about a month and I find it does a nice job of keeping me cool on these very warm Arizona summer rides. The helmet was a breeze to fit as it required very little adjustment and fit well almost directly out of the box. The straps are very easy to adjust even while riding. I find the helmet to be nice, light and comfortable to wear. The only downside is the straps in the front are attached to the helmet about 1/2" from the side of my face which makes wearing my sunglasses on the outside of the straps ... as I do on all my other helmets ... not practical. Overall, the POC Octal Mips is a nice product.

As a person with a Round-Oval head shape I have struggled to find bicycle & motorcycle helmets that fit my head in the US market. My head also measures 59cm, which normally places me in-between a medium & large helmet with most manufacturers. This is not the case with this POC helmet! The Ventilation with this helmet is outstanding, much better than my out going Giro Aries Spherical helmet; plus the fit is much, much better than the Giro.
