I’m really happy with this helmet. I have quite a small head and have had a bit of trouble finding helmets which fit, plus I’m not a big fan of how the traditional style bicycle helmets look, but this one is pretty cool. It comes with 3 different widths of padding for front & back so you can adjust the inside cushioning to get the best fit. A previous review on amazon advised to get the smallest size possible for your head (because the fit can only be adjusted via the padding) and I did just that. My head is 55cm and I ordered a small size (51-56cm). If I use the medium padding at the back and slim at the front I get a perfect snug fit. the helmet also comes in a medium size (54-59cm) and large size (58-63cm). Overall if you are looking for solid but good looking helmet I would recommend this product.
Bought this for my girlfriend, I have the same one but in a different design. Helmet fits well because you can combine padding of different sizes. Looks great and feels very comfortable to wear. No cons with this product in my opinion, a great buy and I am sure my girlfriend agrees on that!

Bell have an excellent reputation for safe helmets – I had one of their motorcycle helmets. This helmet was bought for my teenage daughter for cycling. The standard type of bicycle safety helmet is “weird” and she is not keen on wearing it. However this helmet looks more BMX or Skate Board style and the “critters” design on it makes it colourful and fun to look at.
The outside ABS plastic shell will be more robust than a standard cycling helmet.
Two thicknesses of the pads which stick on with velcro at side, front and rear are supplied to make it easy to change the size of head it will fit.
Also the shell comes down further down the back of the head and at the side over the temples so looks more protective than the standard size of bicycle helmet which seem to be mostly polystyrene padding.
Great Helmet. Quite a large thing when compared with ordinary cycle helmets, but very comfy and it actually keeps your head quite warm on cold days. Well made and the three supplied inserts mean it should fit anyone within the size range.
