Making high-quality helmets designed to protect your noggin at speed isn't anything new for Bell Helmets. Some would call sixty-plus years as old hat, err helmet. If your goals include hurling yourself off a mountain for that all-important footy or to stop a clock, consider donning a Bell Super DH MIPS helmet on your dome.
This particular helmet is all about looking good, feeling fast, and being safe. Most pilots will be wearing goggles to keep the dust and sun's rays at a minimum so a GoggleGuide adjustable visor system allows you to easily manage the visor to accommodate goggles on the pin-it days or sunglasses on more casual sessions. The huge eye-port makes holding eyeglass or goggle frames easy with or without the removable visor installed.
MIPS Spherical is built into the helmet between two different layers of foam, one of a higher-density EPS and one of lower-density EPP. This design allows for a ball-and-socket architecture that can move several millimeters in any direction in the case of impact. The progressive layering of variable EPS better manages the transfer of energies during certain impacts. Much like the other Bell Super helmets, the protective chin-bar attaches and removes easily with no tools required with a simple 3-step connection adding trail riding versatility. Bell designed this helmet to keep you cool on the hottest rides. The helmet has 19 vents with an additional 4 chin-bar vents and 2 brow ports. This overbrow ventilation rushes cool air over the top of the head and draws cool air into the intake ports while exhausting hot air. You'll be surprised how cool this full-face is and let you more easily focus on the fast line without worrying about a hot head.
The helmet meets several certifications and is available in a range of colors and the sizes Small, Medium, and Large. Bell's simple-to-adjust Float Fit DH with Fidlock Buckle makes dialing in the perfect fit an easy affair even with gloves on. X-Static and XT-2 padding combine to provide quick-drying and a soft surface against your skin with real silver fibers preventing the growth of bacteria and fungi so the Super MIPS doesn't smell like a funky locker room.
No-Twist Tri-Glides ensure quick and effortless fit adjustments, keeping straps properly positioned. An integrated camera mount adds seamless integration to capture that gold and if you don't stick the landing, it's designed to breakaway reducing the risk of injury.
