According to the product specialist

Pros
An ergonomic and secure fit thanks to the lightweight adjustment system.
The Coolbest padding and the ventilation design provide extra comfort in heat.
Safety has been significantly improved thanks to the EPS inner lining and helmet construction.
With the addition of MIPS fall protection, you are optimally protected in the event of a fall.
Your cycling glasses can be safely and securely attached to the helmet.
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.
MIPS reduces the shock to your head in the event of a fall, improving safety.
The windtunnel ventilation system provides you with optimal cooling.
This helmet has 26 Wind Tunnel™vents with internal air ducts, that provide excellent cooling.
The In-Mold construction combines a strong outer shell with a shock-absorbing foam lining.
Cons
The aerodynamic performance is slightly compromised by the large ventilation holes.
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.
While MIPS inproves safety, it does add extra weight.
The front of the helmet is rounded, making it look a bit bigger on one's head.
