POC Cytal Apatite Navy Matt
POC CYTAL
Achieving a 5-star (of 5) rating from Virginia Tech, the independent helmet testing experts, the new Cytal road cycling helmet leads the pack in protection. The ultimate choice for any rider looking for safety and ventilation at any speed, the helmet currently places first in Virginia Tech’s road cycling helmet rankings and third overall.
Fast. Safe. The Cytal is the ultimate choice for racers looking for a high-performance cycling helmet that delivers maximum safety, ventilation, and all-day comfort at both low and high speeds.
An aerodynamic helmet for everyday use, the Cytal combines aero efficiency with speed and enhanced protection. Shaped for optimal airflow, the helmet features an integrated wing to guide air smoothly and improve structural stability. With air directed both above and below the helmet, the wing helps boost aerodynamic performance while maintaining exceptional ventilation.
Large internal channels throughout the helmet ensure air flows efficiently through and around the shell for superior cooling at any speed, making this a natural choice for group rides, road cycling, and racing.
Developed for advanced impact protection, every part of the helmet works together to deliver the most reliable safety possible. The outer shell features a denser top section and thicker zones across the forehead to help minimise deformation on impact, supporting the Mips Air Node rotational impact protection system to perform at its best.
A lower-density EPS is used in the lower sections of the helmet, keeping weight low.
A secure and comfortable fit is vital for safety, so the Cytal includes a 360° fit system and adjustable strap dividers for a personalised, stable fit. The result is a lightweight, aerodynamic cycling helmet designed for speed, protection, and comfort on every ride.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
- Large airflow channels: Deep channels running through the helmet support airflow across the whole head.
- 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 while keeping weight low.
- Integrated wing: The helmet features an integrated wing to support structural stability and improve airflow both through and around the helmet.
- PC Shell: The lightweight PC shell improves structural stability and enhances helmet integrity.
- Mips® Air Node: The Mips® Air Node, a low-friction layer laminated to the base of the comfort padding, works to improve rotational impact protection.
- Eye garage: High-friction pads at the front of the helmet make it easy to store sunglasses while riding.
- Adjustable 360° Fit: A lightweight 360° adjustment system makes it easy to find a secure, comfortable fit.
