From the tracks to the trails and across the streets in between, Bell has always been trusted to protect riders. In 1954, Bell Helmets founder Roy Richter witnessed first-hand the dangers associated with racing. A racer himself, Richter saw the need for some extra protection, and created his first helmet – the “500.” Business expanded from there, and the company quickly took the head-seat at the table for their innovative and revolutionary look at helmet manufacturing. With their unique perspective and insight into the industry, Bell has continued to develop the products that the riders of today need.
Since its beginning, Bell Helmets has always been focused on how to best protect riders of all ages, sizes, and riding preferences. Their helmets address every aspect of the ride – protection, comfort, and performance. One never has to come at the expense of the other, making Bell’s helmets the most well-rounded and inclusive helmets on the market. Their effective designs, intuitive technologies, and industry-leading construction have set the standard for the rest of the industry to match. All Bell Helmets come standard with MIPS and ECE certification, along with durable shells, moisture-wicking liners, and varying internal safety features. Bell Helmets are accessible to varying price points and budgets, making the high-performing helmets affordable for all riders.
Today, Bell Helmets still has the same focus and aspirations. The company remains true to its roots while climbing the ladder of innovation. Their helmets are engineered in the name of safety, for all riders of all riding styles. They’re tried-and-true because they’ve been around long enough to be put through every test and ride. Rider owned and rider trusted, Bell is the leading name in the game when it comes to helmet safety, comfort, and performance.

By all expert reviews I have read, this is an excellent helmet. But unlike the Neotec that I tried on, the Hornet is not a medium oval. It is built for very round heads. I had to send it back.

I wanted a helmet that was lighter weight due to prior neck surgery. This helmet is lighter and comfortable. I love the easy magnetic clip to remove it. It also seems to buffer the wind better than my other helmet. The only thing that bugs me a little is the transition shield. When you have it up and then pull it back down, it has lines of shade you see for a few seconds before it clears up.

Great helmet, ventilation is nice and pretty easy to clean. The pictures don't do justice to how beautiful if looks, I wear a typical size Large for helmets, Shoei, RPHA, you name it - typically a large and I don't think I have a round head, more oblong. I do wear glasses with this helmet - sunglasses and prescription. They fit fine on the sides - my glasses are Oakley so they slide directly back which makes putting them on easy. This helmet, my prescription glasses or sunglasses and Havok goggles in mirror, schweet! The helmet is super light too - probably my favorite by far!

This is a massive upgrade from my old helmet and is more than the money I paid for it and the most impressive thing about the helmet is that there is more than enough ventilation to keep a smile on your face and at the end of the day have no sweat off your face
