According to the product specialist

Pros
Excellent finish quality.
Lightweight helmet at just 198 grams for a size M.
Well ventilated because of the 21 large vents.
Ideal all-round bike helmet thanks to excellent comfort and efficient streamlining.
The construction ensures a constant supply of fresh air for cooling.
12 ventilation openings to let excess heat escape.
The In-Mold construction makes the helmet significantly stronger.
The use of SPIN makes this helmet extra safe.
A slimmer fit than previous POC helmets, which makes it suited for a wider range of people.
Lightweight and secure size adjustment system that doesn't get in the way during cycling.
This helmet is ponytail compatible, which means that you can easily put your ponytail through the adjustment mechanism.
The clear reflectors make you highly visible to other road users.
An aerodynamic glasses holder is built in so you can easily insert your glasses into your helmet.
Cons
The white straps of the helmet can easily look a little grimy.
The straps are a little inflexible.
The Valeco is not as lightweight and ventilating as the HJC Ibex 2.0.
No additional crash protection such as MIPS.
A bit heavier than other POC helmets.
Not equipped with extra safety features like MIPS or WaveCel.
