The new Bell Vortex is every bit the helmet you'd expect of the Star's little brother. Developed in Bell's state-of-the-art Santa Cruz design center, using its Velocity Flow ventilation with FlowAdjust for amazing ventilation and temperature control, as well as ClickRelease - the reigning world champ in shield ease-of-use. The lightweight polycarbonate shell is molded into a stable, wind-cutting shape, and comfort is in no short supply with contoured cheek pads and a plush, removable comfort liner. Finish it off with a noise reducing wind collar and integrated speaker pockets and you have a complete package at a killer price.
