Bell MX-9 MIPS Helmet: MX-9 MIPS Comes Up Clutch!

Bell Helmets are credited with their ability to create a helmet fit for each genre. Bell recognized the need to meet the value market with a quality Bell Helmet. With inspiration and design from the front-running duo Moto-9 and Moto-10, the MX-9 MIPS helmet comes to the scene boasting similarly aggressive styling and feature line-up but with a more welcoming price tag. You can be that true dirt bike kid getting dirty, sweaty, and even hitting the ground with rebound, without compromise. From fit to finish to safety, Bell ensures this lid is built to meet your grueling work ethic.

Tough-As-Nails Specs

Racing isn’t just a lifestyle, it’s a way of life. Bell caters to this with their constant speed development and limit-pushing designs, meeting and creating future champions as they go. Constructed of an Advanced Polycarbonate and ABS plastic shell, it remains lightweight and tough as nails to keep your fatigue low and your game high. Whether you’re eating someone’s roost or taking a digger after miss-gauging that new launch ramp, your head is protected, through and through.

The MX-9 is equipped with the Multi-Directional Impact Protection (MIPS) system, which vastly helps dissipate the forces of those hard falls to your dome. There is also a low-friction layer of material that sits between your headliner and the inner EPS letting your head slip a bit more during those hits. This works together with the compression in the EPS to maximize your safety and minimize injury. The chin bar even houses the EPS compression material, adding extra safety. Bell isn’t known for making some of the best-performing helmets for nothing.

Keep a Cool Head

Working as hard as you do to run through the ranks, things get hot real quick. You need comfort in knowing your gear will be there to help keep you cool. Bell has incorporated their proprietary Velocity Flow (VF) Ventilation System directly into the shell and integrated it within the EPS liner. Controlled by their Flying Bridge visor, together, allows maximum airflow to your head, exhausting the heat within. The liner is even channeled for extra airflow. With the lightness of the shell coupled with the VF cooling system, you are bound to remain cool even during your gnarliest grinds. The Bell quality we know and love is packed into the MX-9 MIPS. At its price point, it proves nothing shy of pro-caliber performance. As rough as the off-road world can be, rest assured this lid can hold its own.
