Product Description
Bell strikes with electromotive force this summer debuting the all-new Volt, an amazing combination of massive ventilation, svelte weight, and high-tech comfort. Eleven frontal vents corral massive amounts of air with the help of the Volt's custom-sculpted Composite Fiber IntakesT (CFI) which direct flow to the helmet's internal StreamJet VentilationT channels. Rearward exhaust ports and the moisture-wicking X-StaticT padding work in tandem to help keep the rider cool and dry. The Volt is made even more comfortable by Bell's next-generation Twin Axis GearT (TAG) fit system that allows riders to both dial in the exact fit, as well as adjust the mechanism's horizontal position on the back of the head. Designed to be used on- or off-road, the Volt features Bell's removable Variable Position VisorT (VPV) and will debut simultaneously at the 2008 Tour de France and on the World Cup XC mountain bike circuit. SIZES: Small: 51-55 cm 20"-21.75", Medium: 55-59 cm 21.75"-23.25", Large: 59-63 cm 23.25"-24.75" COLORS: Black/Carbon; Silver/White; Red/White; Blue/White; Team CSC Limited Edition; Team Credit Agricole Limited Edition WEIGHT: 280 grams - 9.9 oz (estimated) CERTIFICATION: CPSC; CE EN 1078 MSRP: $175.00 USD (US PRICING ONLY) VENTS: 22 (11 front, 11 back) TECHNOLOGIES: - FusionT In-Mold Microshell bonds EPS foam to shell for durability - CFIT composite construction directs airflow and reinforces helmet - TAGT Fit System allows riders to both dial in the exact fit in two directions - VPVT Visor is adjustable and removable for on- or off-road use - Thermodynamic X-StaticT Padding is quick-drying and anti-microbial - Internal Reinforcement cage fortifies helmet like rebar in concrete - StreamJet VentilationT internal airflow channels for maximum ventilation - Cam-lockT Levers for easy strap adjustments - Registered Graphics for stunning

Amazon.com Product Description
Combining massive ventilation, svelte weight, and high-tech comfort features, the Bell Volt Bike Helmet has 11 frontal vents direct the flow of air via the helmet's custom-sculpted Composite Fiber Intakes (CFI) and internal StreamJet Ventilation channels. Designed to be used on- or off-road, the Volt's removable Variable Position Visor (VPV) is well suited to the rigors of road racing as well as cross country (XC) competitions.

Rearward exhaust ports and the moisture-wicking X-Static padding work in tandem to help keep the rider cool and dry. The Volt is made even more comfortable by Bell's new Twin Axis Gear (TAG) fit system--an evolution of the highly acclaimed GPS fit system--which allows riders to both dial in the exact fit as well as adjust the mechanism's horizontal position on the back of the head.



The Volt's removable variable position visor.


Easy adjustment with the Twin Axis Gear fit system.

Channeled Ventilation
Specially designed ventilation channels on the interior of the helmet's liner bring cool air in through the front, pass it over the head and flushes warm air out of the rear ports. The Volt features deeply sculpted channels that keep air moving whether you're bombing it at 30 mph, or huffing it uphill at single digit speed.

Internal Reinforcement
In order to maximize venting and minimize bulk, high-end helmets like the Volt now feature internal reinforcements. These composite skeletons fortify helmets the same way rebar makes concrete stronger. This allows for bigger vents, more advanced styling and lighter weight, while still meeting stringent safety standards.

GPS Fit System
For a glove-like fit, nothing beats Bell's exclusive Geared Positioning System (GPS), which delivers the ultimate one-hand adjustment for superior fit and comfort. Simply turn the dial to click in to the perfect custom fit.

4 out of 5 stars Nice lid for the road   June 25, 2010

There are great helmets, there are so-so helmets, and there are total crap helmets. This one is in the great-awesome category! I mostly do road cycling, with a bit of mtn. biking when I can get a break from the city. I'll keep it simple: It's light, tons of vents, fits my head well (although the front pad feels to be a little snug)and the design is super sweet! I got this from Amazon almost 40% off, so it a was awesome deal. Just get one, you'll be super cool (literally)

I recieved the wrong item. Never happened to me before from Backcountry! So this might be unfair as far as review of the spesific item goes. It might be a great helmet - but it is not the one I ordered....

Fits great and has tons of vents so you get lots of cooling, which is crucial here in Texas. I got white to further help with cooling and it also looks really good (as much as a helmet can). The price was great - I think it's just as good as the Giro Ionos for much less money.

Excellent Helmet!!!! Great Ventilation!!! Light!!! Superb Fit!!! I have tried numerous helmets and this is the best so far - comparable to Giro's top helmets. It is also cheaper. Best of all is that it has a removable visor which allows the helmet to switch between off-road and on-road use. IT IS A GREAT HELMET FOR THE PRICE ON AMAZON.COM (and free shipping!)


4 out of 5 stars High doller but almost worth it   December 21, 2008

A little pricey for a bike helmet, but out of all the helmets I have owned in the past, the Volt is the best so far. Works well for both the road and mountain.

4 stars instead of 5 because of price.
