The POC Cytal EF Pro Cycling 2026 Edition road cycling helmet combines uncompromising race performance with the iconic pink design of the EF Pro Cycling professional team for 2026. It is the perfect choice for racers and demanding fans who require maximum safety, top-tier aerodynamics and all-day comfort in training as well as in all-out racing.
The helmet’s construction stands out with an innovative EPS foam liner with two different densities and an integrated aerodynamic wing that increases structural strength and directs airflow over the head. Combined with deep ventilation channels, it guarantees excellent cooling at both low and high speeds and reliably keeps you comfortable during every breakaway.
- Advanced protection with Mips® Air Node technology:
A special low-friction layer is laminated directly to the underside of the comfort padding, significantly reducing the risk of brain injury by limiting dangerous rotational forces on impact. - Strategic dual-density EPS liner:
A denser upper section and reinforced zones around the forehead minimise deformation on impact, while the lower-density bottom section effectively reduces the helmet’s overall weight.
