Eyewear compatible -using prescription glasses or a preferred pair of shades is now possible with eyewear arm pockets woven right into the interior liner Street orientation Five-year warranty Snell M2010 and DOT Certified **Closeouts are limited to stock on hand** Great Helmet and Super Light I've had some Shoei helmets as well as a pair of Schuberth (one S2 and one C3)and, although I don't have the stats on them, this Star feels far lighter. I usually fit a large in Shoei but an XL in Schuberth so, having a rounder head I opted for the XL and it was a perfect fit. 2. Love the magnetic strap tail 3. Although I feel like a walking billboard, the price was incredible and it looks fantastic 4. Plenty of airflow 1. Even with all of the vents closed and the visor locked, there's still a significant amount of airflow coming in under the chin bar. I ride year-round and I cannot use this helmet in anything under 50 degrees (yes, I'm a baby) 2. No pinlock visor for this thing???

This is the only reason I gave it 4 stars in the feature departmentIt's a great helmet for an unbelievable price and it's very light. If you don't use it in the winter, you'll love it. Great product right out of the box Outstanding product lots of extras cool looking great fit the best helmet on the market for the price I own a few helmets, and this is one of my favorites! The helmet is very light and causes very little turbulence at speed. I also really like the visor locking system, makes it easy to lock the visor closed or have it cracked for extra air flow. I typically wear a medium helmet which is what I ordered, the fit is pretty snug in the cheek-pads but I think once they break in, it will fit perfect. I love my Bell Star! This is hands down the best helmet I have ever owned. The weight is really nice and light, it vents really well and it is VERY comfortable. I do think it runs slightly big so if you are between sizes then order a size down. Don't cheap out on your helmet BUY THE STAR!

This helmet doesn’t just protect your skull, it protects what’s inside it.buy motorbike trailer perth Current safety standards have one main goal: keep your skull safe. motorcycle helmets glasgowThis is a great goal, but why do we only seem to care the skull itself?motorcycle helmet visor demister

The answer might seem obvious, but many helmet manufacturers have forgotten that the entire purpose of the skull is to protect the brain. So much so that one of the standards, SNELL, forgoes brain protection entirely in the interest of protecting your skull from an even higher or harder fall—even as the stiffer padding can more easily cause brain trauma.I spoke to a guy named Bob Weber about the different safety standards. motorcycle helmet 3xHe’s the CEO of a company called 6D, which makes off-road helmets using a similar technology as this Bell. motorbike shop diss6D asked its contacts at ASTM, or the American Society for Testing and Materials, about what happens to a rider facing a Snell 7.5-meter impact.“motorcycle shops in allentown pa

They said that guy is dead, or is a vegetable for the rest of his life,” Weber said. “Even if the helmet does its job perfectly.” The issue with current helmets is that they do nothing to stop the rotational or angular acceleration in a crash that causes the brain to spin, rotate, or shear inside your skull. This is the major cause of concussions and brain injuries, and 6D cites a Wayne State University Bioengineering Center study that says that a helmeted head experiences essentially the exact same amount of angular acceleration as an un-helmeted one when subject to the same impacts.motorcycle shop cabooltureThe 6D system uses two EPS liners are connected by 54 elastomeric isolation dampers, which look like little suction cups. The idea is that during an impact where the skull experiences rotational acceleration, the helmets have some flex and allow for some movement to help slow those rotational forces down.

Bell uses something called the Flex Impact Liner. Basically, instead of using one solid piece of foam or dual density foam, the Bell has three unique protective materials which are layered to address low, medium, and high speed and rotational impacts. The inner liner system can rotate relative to the middle and outside layers, which gives the helmet just enough flex to reduce the rotational acceleration translated to the brain. This video on the Bell Moto Flex 9, which uses the same system, breaks it down well:I actually got to go tour the Bell facility last spring, and got to meet Alex Szela (the guy in the video who does their testing) and witness some of the tests they do on helmet. It’s not a company that rests on its laurels.The Pro Star comes packed with all sorts of goodies, each coming with their own fancy name. They’re using a new carbon weave called TeXtreme, which is 20 percent lighter than conventional carbon fiber but equally as strong. When they aren’t making Bell helmets, TeXtreme make carbon fiber for F1 teams.

The mesh liner is now made from something called VIRUS CoolJade, which they claim reduces skin surface temperatures by 10 degrees. Then there’s the Panovision Viewport, which uses a new push button design to release the visor from the helmet. Sources at AIMExpo, where the helmet was unveiled, say it’s the easiest system they’ve ever used. Finally, the Magnefusion magnetic cheek pad system makes the pads easier to pull out or put back in, making them easier to wash or to remove by emergency responders. Hopefully they use better magnets than they’ve been using to secure the extra length on the chin strap to the helmet, because those things suck, but this is actually a really cool idea. The updates don’t stop there though. The Star series now uses five shells instead of three, so you’ll look less like a bobblehead when wearing one. The aerofoil has also been moved further back on the helmet, to help reduce buffeting at higher speeds. The updated Star series line includes three helmets, two of which get the Flex Impact Liner.
