POC Kortal Race MIPS - MTB Helmet

Certified for use with e-bikes, the helmet passes the Dutch standard NTA8776, which tests helmets at higher impact speeds than normal bicycle use. Currently, this is the only standard for e-bike helmets.

In the event of an impact, the helmet's patented breakaway visor snaps away to protect you from neck injuries. The MIPS system provides enhanced protection against rotational forces in the event of an impact.

The helmet is ideal for combining various POC goggles, such as the Devour sunglasses for trail riding or the Ora goggles for enduro, so you can easily extend your protection and sharpen your senses. The visor sits high enough on the helmet that your goggles fit underneath when you're not using them. The strap of your goggle doesn't cover any ventilation openings, so even when you're wearing a goggle, air can circulate as best as possible.

Bikes are becoming more and more modern and faster, so the demands on a helmet in case of a fall are also increasing. That's why this year POC has introduced the Kortal Race MIPS, the big brother of the Tectal. The product details read like the equipment list of a modern fully. In addition to NFC chip, RECCO system and MIPS Integra, the Kortal shines with the Dutch e-bike standard NTA8776. To meet this standard, the helmets are subjected to greater speeds and therefore stronger impact forces. But in addition to the numerous features, the helmet also looks, in my opinion, chic and sleek. However, the helmet is especially in the area of the back of the head larger on, here is simply more material installed! Otherwise, the helmet sits very comfortably with me and does not slip. The Kortal Race MIPS is an absolute premium product and who can not be deterred by the price, can be convinced by the many technical features and high-quality workmanship.
