Review on POC Axion Spin Helmet - The Ultimate Mountain Bike Helmet for Trail and Enduro by Ashwin Drollinger

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good quality but small size

I really wanted to like POC helmets but they are not the right size for me. I usually wear the Large at the Giro, my longtime favorite helmet from my racing days, and it fits me perfectly. I wanted to change it to another high quality brand but I just can't fit in POC M/L. It should be a bit more. Tried the XL and it's huge. Its massiveness inside and out. I'm not sure if this is part of their design and they want you to have plenty of room between your head and the helmet but as soon as I need to reduce it a lot. Compared to their Tectal, which I also tried and had the same issues with, I feel more pressure due to the padding (or lack thereof). It's like a couple of metal strips are pressing against my scalp.

Pros
  • MADE FOR TRAIL & ENDURO: Lightweight helmet with the durability and protection required for trail and enduro racing; Unique air channels keep you cool even on hot summer days
Cons
  • Hard to say
