POC Procen Air Helmet

While it borrows aerodynamic features from time trial helmets, the Procen Air is designed for road cycling. It balances speed-focused aerodynamics with the ventilation and comfort needed for long-distance rides, making it a versatile choice for road cyclists who want aero gains without sacrificing cooling.

The visor snaps into place using magnets, allowing for quick attachment and removal. When you don't need it, you can detach it and dock it securely to the rear of the helmet, keeping it out of the way while you ride.

The ear covers are primarily designed to smooth airflow and reduce wind noise, which can actually make it easier to hear your surroundings by cutting down on the rushing wind sound. However, they do provide a snug fit, so you may notice a slight difference in ambient sound compared to a standard open-ear helmet.

Unlike systems that only tighten at the back of the head, the 360-degree retention system wraps entirely around your head. This provides a more uniform, secure fit that eliminates pressure points, which is particularly helpful for maintaining comfort during long hours in the saddle.

Yes, the helmet uses internal channels inspired by the Venturi effect to actively pull air through the structure. While it is more enclosed than a traditional lightweight climbing helmet, these channels are highly effective at preventing heat buildup during high-effort rides.
