Half helmet POC Myelin — adult protective helmet, hard shell construction, matt black

POC Myelin Black is a protective half helmet with a hard shell construction and a matt finish, designed for urban and recreational cycling. The helmet combines a low-profile silhouette with impact-resistant materials to protect the head during daily commuting and casual rides. Ventilation openings and an ergonomic inner liner contribute to comfort, while the straightforward adjustment system helps achieve a secure fit without added bulk.

Advantages

The hard shell construction increases surface durability and distributes impact forces across the helmet exterior, while the matt finish reduces glare and gives a discreet appearance. The half-shell design balances coverage and breathability, offering protection for the crown and sides without excessive weight. Lightweight internal padding and a simple retention system enable extended use during longer rides or urban travel without discomfort.

How to use
