Product Description
The fact that this is the world's best helmet value is kind of besides the point. With features like 18 massive vents, Fusion In-Mold Microshell, Blade Visor, GPS fit system, Channeled Ventilation and Cam-lock Levers, the Influx is a great helmet at any price. Specs: Weight 10.5oz/309 grams. Vents: 18. Sizes: Small: 51-55cm/20-21.75in, Medium: 55-59cm/21.75-23.25in, Large: 59-63cm/23.25-24.75in. Certification: CPSC.

Product Description
The Bell Influx Mountain Bike Helmet is constructed with a fusion in-mold microshell, which utilizes the process of bonding the helmet's microshell to its EPS foam layer, rather than forming the two separately and taping them together later, to provide a sturdier, more solid helmet. The Influx features a Blade visor with horizontal I-beam pins to keep the visor in place with minimal intrusion, and Bell's GPS (Geared Positioning System) fitting method to deliver an easy one-hand adjustment for fit and comfort.

The Bell Influx also features internal reinforcement through a composite skeleton that fortifies the helmet in the same way rebar makes concrete stronger, and cam-lock levers that make it easy to adjust the straps around your ears. For your comfort, this bicycle helmet includes 18 channeled vents that are specially designed to force cool, fresh air in through the front and around your head, while flushing warm air out of the rear ports. Bell's Influx helmet comes in three sizes, weighs 309 grams, and complies with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's safety standards for bicycle helmets.

  • Fasten your buckle and tighten your chin strap
  • Check your adjustments every time you wear your helmet
  • Inspect your helmet regularly for signs of wear or damage
  • Wear a helmet designed for your activity

4 out of 5 stars Nice Helmet   August 4, 2008
I've used it a few times on 7-10 mile bike rides to the beach and back and found it very comfortable and cool. Amazon had the best price I could find, so I'm very pleased with my purchase. My only complaint is the helmet was really dirty when I received it. Looked like it had been sitting on a shelf collecting dust. You think somebody could of blown or wiped it off before shipping...


5 out of 5 stars Great Helmet!!!   July 22, 2008
Great design, I would recommend it to anyone. Plenty of vent holes, slightly heavier than a road bike helmet but not too bad. Lots of protective area for the back of your head as well.


4 out of 5 stars Good overall helmet   June 14, 2008

This is a great helmet and it's about the most comfortable one I've tried on. The GPS retention systems works great to cater to the exact size of your noggin to get a good snug fit. Plus the looks and color scheme are awesome! The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is becase it doesn't seem to ventilate as well as I had hoped. My old Giro Indicator helmet seemed to do a better job of keeping your head cool, but wasn't near as comfortable as this one.


5 out of 5 stars really good helmet for the price   May 5, 2008

this is a great helmet if your in the $75 or below range like i was at the time...its got a good look to it...its pretty comfortable (minus the straps around the chin, not so comfortable, though not too much to complain about). Its well made and seems to be heavy duty, though still remains very light...the padding inside the helmet can be removed and washed, then put back in. its saved me twice so far and i didnt have any headaches so that was good enough for me.....i would def get it again unless i had like $175 to spend on a helmet.


5 out of 5 stars Love my Bell Influx and will buy another   December 28, 2007

I just broke my Bell Influx helmet...the hard way. I was mountain biking and hooked a tree with my handlebars and went down, hitting my head on a massive root. The Bell Influx dented on the outside shell and broke clean through it's foam structure...just like it's supposed to do, absorbing the energy of the fall so that I won't. I'm happy to say that while I killed the helmet, I experienced no bruising, swelling, or pain. I love the fit, styling, and vents of the Influx and now I know it performs flawlessly in crashes as well. I intend to buy another Influx immediately!
