Technology:
MIPS®MIPS is a glide plane system within the helmet designed to slow or reduce the amount of energy transmitted to or from the head. A helmet equipped with MIPS consists of 3 essential components: the helmet inner shell, a glide plane system and a suspension system made of elastomers. During impact, the inner shell of the helmet dissipates most of the energy. The elastomer-based suspension system allows the sliding plane system to move. Elongation of the elastomers leads to a rotation of the sliding plane system that is independent of the inner shell and completely encases the head. Although only a few millimetres, this movement can reduce the amount of energy acting on the brain.
GoggleGuide™ Adjustable Visor
The adjustable Goggle Guide visor system holds the goggles securely in place. The visor can easily be pushed up and offers enough space on the helmet to " park" the glasses on the helmet. If you are travelling without a visor, the short Goggle Retention Arms are used. They hold the strap securely in place and prevent the glasses from slipping upwards.
Float Fit&trade Adjustment System
Bell's most advanced helmet adjustment system combines comfort and safety in an ultra-lightweight design. Float Fit optimises the fit of the helmet in 2 ways - in terms of head circumference and vertical adjustment. In order to reduce weight and simplify operability, the guide arms are uniquely designed to enclose the back of the head with the " float" design. This puts the helmet in an ideal position on the head. Simple, light and comfortable.
Fusion In-Mold Polycarbonate Shell
EPS foam is injected into the thin microshell while it is still in the mould, instead of forming it and gluing it on separately. This process was first introduced by Bell and is now the standard for all demanding helmets.
