buy Ivermectin 6 mg The Overview
If you’re looking for a comfortable, high-performance mountain biking helmet, look no further than POC Trabec Helmet. As a POC product, you can expect all the highest standards in safety performance. This helmet not only boasts some serious protection, but is also incredibly well-ventilated (with 16 vents). In fact the Trabec derives its name from what’s called “trabecular bone structure” in the cranial area or skull. Trabecular bone structure is spongy, flexible bone material and can be subject to damage easier than compact, or hard bone. The Trabec Helmet is designed to specifically protect those softer places on the skull.
This helmet is meant for single track and enduro mountain bikers. Its protective materials are composed of bonded EPS core and the unbreakable aramid (a lightweight and highly resistant) weave, which spreads impact forces over a larger surface area. The outer PC shell adds an extra layer of protection, as the seams, i.e. areas that could become structurally compromised are located in places that typically experience the least exposure to impact.
Another important note: POC helmets are designed around the entire head, not just the top of the head.
order prednisone for dogs The Test
I first tested the POC Trabec Helmet in Krypton Blue on Buttermilk’s Government trail, a fun, flowy single-track trail. Off the bat I liked how customizable the fit was on the helmet. There’s a dial on the back of the helmet that allows for an optimally snug and secure fit. Similarly, the chin buckle is comfortable when cinched snugly. I appreciated the extra bit of detail and thought that went into the convenient band, which holds up any extra slack from the chin strap. In fact, all POC helmets have this well-thought feature. During the vigorous, sunny climb, which starts from the base of Buttermilk’s Tiehack chairlift, I noticed my head stayed quite cool. I’m luckily to report that I did not experience any crashes, or head impact, during the ride. My only complaint is that the helmet is quite bulbous and large looking, but I’m happy to let this slide when considering the incredible technology that goes into this helmet. Plus, there are plenty of cool colors to choose from to make a statement—if that’s something that matters to you.
Rating
4.5 (out of 5)
Style: Truth be told, this isn’t exactly a flattering helmet—especially if you have a smaller head or face. But sometimes functionality and performance trump style and I think it’s safe to say that your brain is one of them. It would be nice if POC could find a way to make these helmets (and all their helmets for that matter) a little more low profile. +.5
Design: POC is an industry leader in creating innovative, smart products and the Trabec is no exception. +1
Durability: Impact and abrasive resistant make this product among the most durable in its class. +1
Performance: While I personally—and thankfully— can’t attest to the Trabec’s impact performance, POC’s weaved aramid and EPS core and outer PC shell with consciously placed seams makes for one of biking’s safest helmet. +1
Comfort: The dial adjuster and chin strap system ensure maximum comfort. +1
