This is Bell's top of the line helmet. With 15 top vents and 4 rear vents, there's no way you're gonna overheat. The Fusion In-Mold microshell and removeable visor make it look cool too.

Pros:
Light and well ventilated. Great fit system, wish my welding helmet at work had this good of a headgear!
Cons:
Cannot seem to find a balance between having the straps adjusted tightly enough, as per the manual, and not rubbing uncomfortably on my adam's apple.
Time Used:
Less Than A Month
Comments:
Very pleased. I don't look like a dork, my head doesn't get hot, pads keep sweat out of my eyes, and, it fits so well I can forget that i have it on. Have loosened straps a little to prevent strangling, but still feel safe.

Pros:
Nice fit, light feeling, and kept my lid cool.
Cons:
Would not hold together. The plastic straps that held it to the shell pulled out on two helmets, and the back strap that goes thur to the top of the helmet would pop up.
Time Used:

I was dissapointed that the helmet did not work for me. My friends that have it love and have had no problems, maybe its just my skull?

I tried the Giros but was hating the abrasive pads and fit. I tried the specialized but hated the design and coverage. I tried the bell and have been loving it. The main pro is the sweat pad over your forehead. It keeps the sweat out of your eyes very well and doesn't overheat you head. i recommend it highly!!
