Octal Raceday Helmet
The POC Octal Raceday helmet is something of an anomaly in the market — after all, almost all helmets are designed for racing, but worn for training. POC flips this paradigm on its head a bit by offering a helmet designed for the special rigors of bike racing. The Octal AVIP Helmet has high-visibility, and emergency identification features, but the Raceday forgoes those, under the assumption that you’ll be racing in an area free of cars, and where your emergency contact info will be lodged with the organizers.
In addition, the Raceday provides a bit more coverage, extending down the low-back of the head more than the AVIP does, in anticipation of the possibility of more frequent crashes while racing. The POC Raceday also features a low-profile click wheel for adjustment, and POC’s Eye Garage for keeping your sunnies perched solidly on your helmet when they’re not in use.

Amazing helmet, great color, and super light. Unfortunately, it does not fit my long oval head well so I had to return.

I have an oval head with a slight crown at the top and the Octal Raceday fits it perfectly. I had a hard time with Giro helmets, because of the crown. Bell helmets fit well, but I really like the modern POC helmet look. My head measures 22", so I went with the medium. Maybe could have gone with a small, but I like the extra room room to be able to wear a cap on cool rides. I like how thin the straps are too. They conform very comfortably to the side of my face and chin. Haven't had any problems with them slipping in the buckle.

Didn't want to put this helmet to the test, but ended up getting hit by a car today, and was able to get up and walk away because of this thing. Obviously I'm buying another one.
