Fast. Safe. The Cytal is the ultimate choice for racers looking for a high-performance cycling helmet that delivers maximum safety, ventilation, and all-day comfort at both low and high speeds.

An aerodynamic helmet for everyday use, the Cytal combines aero efficiency with speed and enhanced protection. Shaped for optimal airflow, the helmet features an integrated wing to guide air smoothly and improve structural stability. With air directed both above and below the helmet, the wing helps boost aerodynamic performance while maintaining exceptional ventilation.

Large internal channels throughout the helmet ensure air flows efficiently through and around the shell for superior cooling at any speed, making this a natural choice for group rides, road cycling, and racing.

Developed for advanced impact protection, every part of the helmet works together to deliver the most reliable safety possible. The outer shell features a denser top section and thicker zones across the forehead to help minimise deformation on impact, supporting the Mips Air Node rotational impact protection system to perform at its best.

A lower-density EPS is used in the lower sections of the helmet, keeping weight low.

A secure and comfortable fit is vital for safety, so the Cytal includes a 360° fit system and adjustable strap dividers for a personalised, stable fit. The result is a lightweight, aerodynamic cycling helmet designed for speed, protection, and comfort on every ride.

PRODUCT FEATURES

Adjustable strap dividers

The strap dividers beneath the ears are fully adjustable, making it easy to find a precise and secure fit.

Certifications

This helmet is certified to one or more of the following standards: EN 1078, CPSC 1203, AS/NZS 2063.

TRUSTED BY TEAM AMANI

The Cytal is tried, tested and trusted by the riders of Team Amani.

PROTECTED BY SCIENCE

Finite Element Modelling (FEM)

Created to question many more safety variables, our FEM process ensures that we deliver products that live up to our internal safety demands and is the process that influenced the carbon wing.

The Cube

The Cube is an internal database containing nearly a million real-world data points used to give us insights into how we can refine the performance of our helmets.

CFD simulation and testing

Competitive cyclists optimize every pedal stroke to deliver pure forward motion. Several details need to align to create precise forward motion on a bike, such as fitness, power, and technique, all of which are basic building blocks to building speed.

How to choose: Road cycling helmets

A helmet is vital for your safety, but it’s also a fundamental part of forming the perfect kit. Your helmet choice helps to define you as a cyclist, so it’s always important to choose carefully.

The Cytal is the ultimate helmet choice for any rider looking for safety and ventilation at any speed, designed for maximum safety, aerodynamic efficiency and comfort on high-speed rides. Some key features include:

  • An integrated wing enhances structural stability and improves airflow both through and around the helmet.
  • Designed for road cyclists seeking top-tier protection without compromising weight or ventilation.
  • Built to perform in long endurance rides, racing or high-intensity group rides.
  • Part of POC’s Whole Helmet Concept™, ensuring fit, protection, and comfort work together.

The Cytal combines advanced impact protection systems with proven helmet safety standards. Some key safety features include:

  • MIPS Air Node technology reduces rotational forces during angled impacts.
  • Dual-Density EPS Liner: The helmet liner features two densities of EPS (expanded polystyrene), with a denser upper part and less dense lower section, delivering optimised crash protection.
  • Reinforced protective zones protect parts of the head that are more likely to be impacted in a crash.
  • Rated 5-stars by Virginia Tech Helmet Ratings, one of the highest scores for road helmets.
  • Certified for CPSC 1203 (U.S.) compliance and EN 1078 standards for additional reassurance.

The Cytal helmet is designed to offer excellent ventilation, keeping riders cool and comfortable during intense efforts.

  • The integrated wing to aid airflow and enhance structural stability. With air guided both above and below the helmet, the wing works to improve both aerodynamic performance and ventilation.
  • Large airflow channels running through the helmet support airflow across the whole head, ensuring optimal cooling at both low and high speeds.

The Cytal is a lightweight road helmet, weighing approximately 270 grams in size M/L, ideal for performance-oriented riders.
