Stay Safe And Comfortable With This Reliable Helmet
Think with your head — make sure to upgrade to the helmet that will keep you safe in a pinch. The POC Kortal Race MIPS mountain bike helmet offers advanced protection and excellent ventilation for demanding cyclists. With state-of-the-art technologies combined with the style and protection you need in your life, look no further than this one-of-a-kind helmet.
The helmet is designed for maximum protection and combines seamlessly with Ora goggles. It is designed so that the goggle strap does not block the ventilation ducts and it cools enduro riders comfortably on the climb between race stages. A flip-up visor and air ventilation keep you comfortable during bright rides, keeping the sun out of your eyes and the wind in your hair. This helmet features the integrated Multi-directional Impact Protection System, which greatly reduces the harm done by dangerous rotational forces if thrown from the bike.
The removable and adjustable helmet peak can be pushed up so that goggles or sunglasses can be stowed underneath. In addition, the ventilation holes at the back are shaped so that the sunglasses can be securely fixed in them. The POC Kortal Race MIPS MTB helmet also meets the Dutch NTA 8776 standard for electric bike helmets, currently the only valid standard for electric bikes.
Features:
Perfect for trail, enduro, and all-mountain biking
Meets the Dutch NTA 8776 standard for electric bike helmets
Flip up visor
Visor can be pushed up so that goggles/sunglasses can be stored underneath
Design ensures goggle strap does not block ventilation channels

Weighing in at approximately 370g (size M/L)

please replace my submission for the POC Kortal Race MIPS helmet review with the following; there were numerous typo errors in the original submission. Thanks.
New, improved, recommended.
This new helmet was a requested/fulfilled Christmas gift to augment or replace a POC Tectal Race Spin helmet. The receipt of the new Kortal disappointed in that the sizing is somewhat different (smaller) than the Tectal. A Medium/Large of the Kortal did not fit (as the Tectal did) and needed to be returned for the Large/XL size. New replacement arrived and fits properly. After several rides with the new helmet, I find the POC integration of MIPS/Spin technology is considerably more comfortable with or without a Headsweat beanie. It's difficult to comment on the ventilation as it is winter here in the Northeast, however, it would appear to be vented equal or better than the Tectal Spin design. Profile of the overall helmet shell is also different but more (?) functional with good coverage protection. The 3 position breakaway visor is another plus as it better facilitates safety in the event of a crash; it also provides off-the-face google/glasses storage. While missing the goggle retention strap of the Tectal, the new shape of the Kortal appears not to be an issue for strap retention. More importantly, the new NFC Medical integration stores all your important information in the helmet; in case of a serious crash, your medical/personal data can be read by first responders or anyone present by touching a cell phone to the helmet. Picture this . . . you are conscious but unable to ride/walk out, you can scan the helmet which provides your exact coordinates with the ability to send a text message with the info. More info found at https://www.twiceme.com/ with link to application download. Closing, Bike Tires Direct was great to work with (always!) and pricing/credits/customer service is unrivaled.
