The Ventral SPIN sets a new benchmark for aerodynamic performance, safety and ventilation in a road bike helmet. Designed and created using feedback from pro riders on the Cannondale - drapac Pro Cycling Team, our aerodynamics experts at WATTS Lab, combined with our expertise and extensive computational fluid dynamics simulation and testing, the Ventral SPIN features a unique design that ensures it is the fastest and safest road bike helmet we have produced.
The Ventral design brings air through the helmet, rather than around it, which significantly reduces wake behind it and improves the helmet's aerodynamic properties. The Ventral SPIN has been designed with specific airflow zones in the helmet to create different pressure zones, inspired by the Venturi effect, which has the effect of increasing airflow and speed allowing the helmet to pass through the air more easily and efficiently. The airflow zones also create superior ventilation and cooling which improves the overall performance of the helmet.
Residual air traveling over and around the helmet is managed by an aerodynamically optimized trailing edge, which reduces turbulence and generates a longer linear airflow from the helmet and the rider, improving the helmet and the rider's aerodynamic performance pilot.
The Ventral SPIN also features POC's patent-pending rotational impact protection system, SPIN, designed to reduce the effects of an oblique fall by reducing the amount of force transmitted to the head and brain. Using innovative and unique pad technology, which sits directly against the user's head and can cut in any direction during an oblique impact, the SPIN pads allow the helmet to move relative to the head during a fall, reducing the force transmitted to the brain.
The Ventral SPIN is extremely lightweight yet features a fully wrapped unibody shell construction for added safety and an EPS liner optimized for the perfect balance of weight and safety. A lightweight adjustment system and ergonomic precision strap design provide an excellent, flexible fit. The helmet also features a new eye garage for handy bike cup storage.
