Have you got another picture of the box?
I have a standard octal and a raceday octal aero and they came in thin white cardboard box with a plastic window. The box slides open like a drawer kinda thing...
No corrugated cardboard to my knowledge.
I would agree with above and contact POC. Don't wear it until it has been verified OK.BikeRadar Communities Manager0 -
if you bought it off ebay....0

Perhaps some context of where the OP purchased this from would help. If the post starts with "I got this bargain off some chap down the pub called Ali Baba..." then we have the probable answer...0

Sides look slightly different shape...

Dear friend
here is picture of box.
Thank you0 -
I will double check my box when I get home.
It doesn't say raceday anywhere on the box?
It may just be the original model?BikeRadar Communities Manager0 -
Bar code comes up right.
Might just be old stock. Have they always had the missing graphic?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

You know you can get these on Aliexpress? Saw them on there recently when researching prices for Bikesy.
They were a ridiculously cheap. The page doesn't come up when you search for POC for obvious reasons but they are POC in the photos that get displayed.
Personally I wouldn't trust a copycat helmet. Or anything carbon fibre.0 -
Dear friends
POC reply mail to me said this helmet is real.
This helmet is real, some of the Octal Raceday helmets do not have the RD letter on them. You are good to go.
Thanks
