Anyone using a POC helmet? How do they size up compared to other brands?

Giro Montaro in L is a good fit for me, TLD A2 in L/XL a little too big for me

I find they come up quite small. Can't get one to fit me - I use a TLD A2 XL/2XL.

Contrary to the above, I think they come up big! I've always worn a l/xl, but my Tectal Race (most comfortable helmet I've ever worn, FWIW) is a ML.
(59cm ish 'long' head. Never found a Giro that fitted nicely)

Only own the FF and they IMHO come up large.

Maybe my problem is not that they aren't true to size or are small but just that they don't come in a 2XL variation... 😐

Ummm... https://www.pocsports.com/eu/tectal-race-spin/10511.html

My buddy has an enormous head and rocks the XL.
I think, like all helmets, it's just down to shape. His head is ostensibly the same size as mine, but more round.

😐

EDIT If I were the OP, I'd just ignore me.

I also find them on the generous size... I’m a large in giro but medium in poc, although I only have a small amount of adjustment left, so I’m definitely on the top end of medium

I have a big head and have a POC Octal for the road in large and a POC tectal race in XL. Granted I have to tighten the dial at the back of the tectal for a tight fit. I think they come up quiet small (i,e. previous large in IXS fits).

They are the best helmets I've ever had . Very light and comfy .

Have POC Ventral Spin and Cerebal.

They seem to size up pretty much how they're labelled, i.e. the medium Ventral Spin at 54 - 59cm is slightly roomier than a medium specialized helmet that is up to 58cm.
