Overview
Snapping a visor or bubble shield onto the Bell open-face helmet changes its look in seconds. The fiberglass composite shell comes in several sizes for a closer fit, and the plush, quilted liner wicks sweat and fights odor.
Five shell sizes give a fit that does not look oversized. It leaves the face exposed, and the title's carbon claim conflicts with the listed fiberglass.
Who it's for
Riders of classic, cafe or cruiser bikes will like the retro style. Those riding fast or on highways should consider a full face helmet.
Pros and cons
- Multiple shell sizes
- Snap pattern for shields

Performance notes
Shell size matters for fit and look, so the size chart drives comfort. Ionic padding wicks sweat and fights bacteria, keeping the liner fresh over long rides.
