Well-fitting comfortable inconspicuous
Nicely built helmet. Mostly unaware that it’s there. Spin technology seems clever. Hope I don’t get to try that bit out!
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Light, comfortable cool with distinctive style.
Very pleased with the helmet. Had read other reviews saying strap adjustment was difficult and didn’t fit well around ears. Not so, mine fitted perfectly straight out of the box. Wore once for a short ride to check fit and next ride was 320k. Good fit, very comfortable, good cooling and nice distinctive styling. Hope I never need to test the enhanced safety claims.

Best helmet ever purchased
It’s said a lot, but genuinely this is the most comfortable, light and coolest helmet I’ve purchased in 30 years of riding. Very happy to recommend.

Top quality
Came form a Kask Majito used for the last 5 years. Excellent airflow on this POC. I get a sweaty head! Completed 50+ mile ride in 23 to 28 degrees and it's excellent - no sweat running down onto the lenses and didn't feel the usual throbbing head as much after the ride (meant I could go out for some beers). You can actually feel there is much better airflow to the brow than the Kask. Weirdly (but good) the pads weren't saturated after the ride. In addition the fit is brilliant - again an improvement on the Kask and only needed to adjust the wheel at the back to fit as you'd expect. Weight is good - didn't notice it on. My Oakley Jawbreakers felt better with their arms outside the straps rather than under (prefer under) so may need to fiddle with the straps if I want this. Went for the Hydrogen white which I believe is faster, safer and lighter than other colours ;-). Impressive. Top service from Mantel - swift delivery and it comes in a sweet Mantel branded box. Nice touch.

Top quality - worth the extra
Great lid. Wanted something with increased (or the best) ventilation as I get a very warm head and it can have repercussions after a ride. This is very effective. It feels cooler on the brow/forehead and it's neat how I don't get any sweat running down over my sunlgasses and yet the pads are not saturated. The fit is excellent - non intrusive and you don't feel it anywhere. I went for the medium and I'm usually a 58 head size. Enough room for a cap or increased bouffant. Looks good - nice and white which is the fastest colour. Don't skimp on your head is my view - worth every penny. Great service from mantel - first time used - and I like the branded box it came in.

Light and comfortable
Would score higher, but ventilation just ok. Switched from Prevail, and was hoping for more airflow, but can’t really feel it. But overall a quality product.

Light and comfy, straps too short
The helmet itself fits well and (in my opinion) looks great, and is very light and comfortable. Mantel were easily the best price I could find. Unfortunately the ear splitters on the straps don't come down low enough and were rubbing against my ear lobes while riding. Unfortunately I didn't notice this until I'd ridden it, so couldn't return. (So I've had to sell at a large loss)
