Bell Sweep R Cycle Helmet

£71.95

 

RRP: £79.95

Bell Sweep R Cycle Helmet
With 20 functional vents actively channeling airflow over the head and out the rear of the cycle helmet, a feathery curb weight and a bevy of top-level features, the Bell Sweep R has moved to the front of the pro peloton. Bell's signature GPS Fit System insures an optimal fit, while the Fusion in-MOLD microshell and bottom wrap along with an internal reinforcing skeleton make the Sweep R Helmet strong yet svelte. Dialed race graphics accentuate this design masterpiece.


Technology

Fusion in-MOLD Microshell

In-molding is the process of bonding the helmet’s Microshell to its EPS foam layer to provide a sturdier, more solid helmet. The EPS foam is shot into the thin Microshell cap when it is in the mold—thus the name—rather than formed separately and taped on later. This process was pioneered by Bell and is now the industry-wide standard for all high-end helmets. It’s now standard on all Bell adult and child cycle helmets.

in-MOLD Bottom Wrap

In-Mold bottom wraps bring a new level of durability, solidity and aesthetics to helmets. By bonding Microshell material to the lower half of the helmet, In-Mold bottom wraps cover what on most helmets is a less durable, exposed EPS foam.

Clear GPS Fit System

For a glove-like fit, nothing beats Bell's exclusive Geared Positioning System (GPS). Offered on our marquee helmets—Ghisallo, X-Ray, Furio and Influx, —GPS delivers the ultimate one-hand adjustment for superior fit and comfort. Simply turn the dial to click in to the perfect custom fit.

Internal Reinforcement

In order to maximize venting and minimize bulk, high-end helmets like the Sweep, Ghisallo and X-Ray 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.

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 of the cycle helmet. You'll find some form of this feature on almost all Bell helmets, but our higher end helmets feature deeply sculpted channels that keep air moving whether you're bombing it at 30 mph, or huffing it uphill at single digit speed.

Cam-Lock Levers

Bell's Cam-Lock strap levers make it easy to adjust the straps around your ears. Simply open the cam…position comfortably and close the lever. Done.

Registered Graphics

Getting helmet graphics to hit the right spot on the helmet without distorting or warping is more challenging than most people realize. It’s why you see many of our competitors only doing helmets in solid colours or with very simple graphics. The Bell Cycle Helmet designers have pioneered methods for registering graphics, so that we can make some of the most graphically complex and visually appealing helmets in the world.
