POC Amidal MIPS Helmet

The Amidal is designed as a hybrid, balancing the aerodynamic needs of road cycling with the structural durability required for gravel. Its reinforced rear zones provide extra peace of mind on rougher terrain, while the internal airflow channels keep you cool during high-intensity road efforts.

MIPS Air Node is an integrated, low-friction layer built directly into the helmet's padding. It provides the same rotational impact protection as traditional MIPS systems but is lighter and more breathable because it eliminates the need for a separate plastic slip-plane liner.

No, the 360-degree system is specifically engineered to distribute tension evenly around your entire head rather than just pulling from the back. This creates a secure, uniform fit that minimizes pressure points, which is particularly helpful during long rides.

The helmet uses internal channels designed via computational fluid dynamics to maintain airflow even at lower speeds. While you will always get the most cooling at higher velocities, the 15 vents are positioned to ensure consistent airflow across the scalp regardless of your pace.

The reinforced rear zones are integrated into the polycarbonate shell and EPS liner construction to keep the weight efficient. At 340g for a size small, it remains competitive with other performance helmets in its class while offering that extra layer of structural stability.
