POC Omne Ultra MIPS Helmet Red

DESIGNED FOR ROAD CYCLING, OFFERING GREAT COMFORT AND SAFETY

Giving freedom to improvise, the Omne Ultra Mips embodies the spirit of gravel to make do with what you have and make everything individual. Adapting the trusted protection of the classic Omne Air Mips, the helmet incorporates attachment points, straps, and velcro on its exterior so riders can add a rain cover, an identification patch, or even store small items before or after a ride. Ideal for adventure, the helmet is well-ventilated, features an EPS liner for impact protection, and a PC shell for added strength and stability. The integrated 360° adjustment system makes it easy for every rider to find their perfect fit.

Features:

• Mips Integra: Mips Integra seamlessly and almost invisibly integrates rotational impact protection into the helmet.
• EPS Liner: A lightweight EPS liner provides optimized protection.
• PC Shell: The PC shell improves the helmet's structural integrity.
• 360 Fit: A 360° adjustment system facilitates a secure and comfortable fit.
• Slim Profile: The helmet's slim profile helps keep the weight low.
• External Attachment Points: The helmet incorporates a range of external attachment points to offer customization options and enhance functionality off the bike.
• Reflector: A RECCO® reflector helps rescue services locate you easily and quickly if something goes wrong.

Technologies:

- MIPS
MIPS is a leading slip-plane technology inside the helmet, designed to reduce rotational forces that can result from certain impacts. When a head rotates rapidly and comes to a sudden stop, rotational acceleration can cause high levels of strain in brain tissue. The stretching of tissue resulting from these movements can lead to various types of brain injuries.

We believe helmets equipped with MIPS technology can add an extra level of protection against certain types of impacts. MIPS uses a slip-plane system that moves inside the helmet, mimicking the brain's own protection system.

This layer is designed to rotate inside the helmet to potentially slow or reduce the amount of energy transferred to or from the head. Science tells us that if we can reduce the strain associated with rotational acceleration, we could reduce the risk and severity of brain damage.
