POC, a leading manufacturer of skiing and cycling helmets, apparel and accessories, has partnered with Argon 18, Fizik, Corima, and CeramicSpeed and is proud to announce an online auction where a one of a kind Argon 18 Time Trial/Triathlon bike will be auctioned off. Bike Helmets

The auction will celebrate the Raceday concept, which was introduced in 2015. Raceday is the result of POCs quest to redefine the future of road cycling Bike Helmets.

To emphasize the ambition of technology, aerodynamics and performance within Raceday, helmets and apparel, we turned to Argon 18, Fizik, Corima, and CeramicSpeed to customize the ultimate machine. The bike will follow us at events and trade shows and will then be auctioned off later this fall13,900) and the proceeds of the auction will be used to support Spinalis, a charitable foundation whose mission is to support the research and treatment development in the field of spinal cord injuries.

About Raceday Mountain Bike Clothing

Raceday is the result of POCs product development team and developed in close collaboration with Cannondale-Garmin Pro Cycling Team, Volvo Car Group and the aerodynamic specialists in WATTS Lab.

Raceday is the result of POC's uncompromising approach to road cycling performance and marks the next step in our quest to redefine POC's future of road cycling.

POC entered the road bike scene in 2014, with the AVIP collection which combined different technological and design solutions to improve a cyclist s ambition of optimizing every watt and finding that extra edge when it really matters, on race dayItalia by 16 seconds and in 1989, after 3 weeks of racing, Greg Lemond won the Tour de France by 8 seconds!Road Bike Helmets

Raceday has involved extensive wind tunnel and CFD testing as well as close collaboration with Cannondale-Garmin Pro Cycling Team and specialists in POC's own centre of aerodynamic excellence, WATTS lab. The objective has been clear, to optimize performance and Cycle Helmets.

By incorporating the experience and knowledge from textile engineers and technologists POC Raceday integrates advanced fabrics and design which will reduce drag. The position of certain fabrics has also been considered in fine detail so efficiency and comfort are never compromised, such as the Coldblack technology and the dimpled shoulders zones used in the Aero TT Suit, the Multi D WO Sleeveless Suit and the Aero Jersey.

Aerodynamics is fundamental but if you ignored breathability, thermoregulation or movement then the chances are you would not be able to maximize performance. The Cerebel Raceday, which has been developed in close collaboration with Cannondale-Garmin Pro Cycling Team, is a perfect illustration as testing showed that compared to a static time trial position it excelled in varying body positions which allows greater upper body movement and improved lactate clearing.Bike gloves

Raceday by POC introduces a wide range of performance specific products, from bibs and jerseys through to shoe covers and gloves, and is the result of an uncompromising and holistic approach to cycling and marks the next step in our quest to redefine POC's future of road cycling.
