PARK CITY, Utah (BRAIN) — At the Eurobike show, POC released its 2019 cycling and mountain bike collections which includes the Omne Air SPIN road helmet, designed for road and urban use. The company also showed its new VPD System torso protection and new Resistance, AVIP and Essential apparel collections for road and mountain bike.
"We are delighted to present a host of new products and collections at Eurobike, all driven by our commitment to POC's safety mission, and the dedication and enthusiasm of the POC team," said Jonas Sjögren, POC CEO. "We worked closely with our athletes in both mountain bike and road to perfect everything from weight, fit and function in the new helmets, protection and apparel."
The Omne Air SPIN helmet was developed with an optimized EPS liner for crash protection and features POC's patent-pending oblique impact protection system, SPIN. The helmet also features a slimmer profile than previous POC helmets, thanks to the precise depth in core zones of the liner and the optimized coverage of the helmet shell.
The VPD System Torso is a new back and chest protection system created to provide maximum levels of protection, ventilation and comfort for DH and gravity riders. The design and materials used ensure that the Torso system is minimalistic and will not interfere with riding in any conditions especially as body heat molds the protection to the rider's body shape. The VPD System Torso is level 1 and 2 certified.
POC's 2019 road and mountain bike apparel incorporate protective materials and design to maximize protection and performance. In addition to POC's spring 2019 road apparel, it will also feature a fall collection for 2018, with jerseys and jackets designed for colder weather riding. The mountain bike collection includes redesigned Resistance Enduro jerseys and shorts and additions to Resistance WO a women's specific line.
