## Overview

The Bell Super DH MIPS helmet combines cutting-edge Spherical MIPS technology with a robust polycarbonate shell fused to variable-density EPS foam for superior impact management. Designed for aggressive downhill and trail riders, it features a tool-free removable chin bar, 19 vents including Overbrow Ventilation for optimal airflow, premium moisture-wicking X-Static padding, and an integrated breakaway camera mount. Available in multiple sizes, it offers a customizable, secure fit with Float Fit adjustment, making it the ultimate helmet for those who demand uncompromising protection and versatility on every ride.

## Description

Built for the hard charger, the Super DH is most at home on steep terrain — featuring Spherical Technology and full DH certification. Spherical Technology's Ball-and-Socket design, powered by Mips®, helps redirect impact forces away from the brain by allowing the outer liner to rotate around the inner liner during a crash. The Super DH is loaded with additional features — including a 360-degree wraparound, tool-free removable chin bar beefy enough to satisfy the rigors of ASTM 1952 testing, a huge eyeglass- and goggle-friendly eye port, an adjustable-height visor, snap-in camera mount, Overbrow Ventilation and X-Static padding, and a quality fit that is second to none. The end result is uncompromising protection and performance, and unparalleled versatility. The Super DH is ready to take World Cup DH runs on the chin, bang out bike park laps until the chairlifts stop running, or settle into hours of back-country uphill grinding in search of that perfect ribbon of high-consequence singletrack. [Availability, certification, color, and pricing may vary per region. If outside of the USA, please check with your authorized local dealer for more information.]

Review: Great DH Rated Helmet - This helmet is fantastic. Feels very solid and the fit is nice and snug. I was between choosing this helmet and the Giro Switchblade which also looks to be a great helmet. I compared reviews from here, mountain biking forums and Youtube and chose this helmet for a few different reasons. 1. Airflow - I am in Arizona so I wanted this helmet as it appears to have more vents which should help with airflow in the summer months 2. Weight - The Bell weighs noticeably less than the Switchblade which is good for extended length rides. The last thing you need while riding is a sore neck from riding. The added weight of a mount and Go Pro can add up quick. 3. Chinbar - I liked the chin bar securing method better than the Switchblade. Since there is no formal locking mechanism for the chin bar on the Switchblade there were multiple riders in forums that reported that the chin bar is rather weak and is prone to falling off during a hard crash 4. Warranty - Warranty between both companies seems rather similar. Both offer 1 year warranty for defects and both have a crash replacement program. Bell offers the crash replacement in both the United States and Europe while Giro only offers the replacement program in the U.S. All in all I couldn't be happier with this helmet and hope I never have to find out how well it performs in a crash. What mainly sold me during my research was googling both "Giro Switchblade failure" and "Bell Super DH failure". There you will find different forums with a wealth of knowledge and will see what I mean with the Giro's chin bar.
Review: Really great and versatile helmet! - This is my second Bell Super DH as I passed my first one after 2 years onto my youngest son who is just now big enough to wear it. I put 5,000+ miles on the original and it was still in serviceable condition when I bought this new one. For those who are not familiar with this style of convertible helmet, you essentially have two helmets in one. You have a full face and when the chin bar is removed a half shell. Both breath surprisingly well and I have worn both in 90+ degree weather. Obviously without the chin bar it is much more comfortable. This particular version (compared to the Super 3R) is downhill rated which is a series of test that the helmet has to meet to gain this certification. Does it make it better than the Super 3R? Maybe not but the 3R and other convertible helmets that don't have this rating means they couldn't pass the tests ... In any case I got this originally because I was going fast and starting to hit some big jumps (doubles). When you are flying through the air at 15 mph on a 25 foot jump you start to realize how vulnerable you are! My thoughts were, and still are that if you hit your face on a tree, your face is going to lose 100% of the time. This helmet has their version of MIPs which they call spherical MIPS. Essentially the helmet and the inside straps that you head rests into are allows to slip in the event of a crash, reducing the likelihood of trauma. Most high end helmets have some version of this. If you do some reading you'll see it's a feature you should look for in a helmet. Another useful feature is the drip guard on your forehead. It actually does keep sweat from dripping down into your eyes/glasses/goggles. I think most will find the difference size cheek pads to be sufficient to find an appropriate fit. I personally run the chin bar on about 50% of my rides. When I know I'm going to ride something knarly or hit some big jumps I'll bring it. The great thing is you can carry it up on your bars or on your hip pack (as I do with a few bungie type cords) and just put it on when you get ready to drop in. In this way you get the best of both worlds, a breathable half shell on the climbs and full face protections on the descents. I don't think you can put a price on your brain but if you could it would probably be more than $300. My only complaint is the replacement pads are impossible to find now. The next time they are in stock I'm going to buy a bunch as new interior pads make it feel like a new helmet after a few thousand miles!

## Features

- FUSION IN-MoIding POLYCARBONATE SHELL AND PROGRESSIVE LAYERING - A process pioneered by Bell bonds the helmet's outer shell to the EPS foam liner to create a sturdier helmet. The process of engineering a helmet liner with variable EPS foam densities to better manage the transfer of energies after some impacts.
- FLEX SPHERICAL+MIPS AND WRAPAROUND CHIN BAR - Flex Spherical enhances our ability to address high-speed impacts, low-speed impacts, as well as rotational impacts. Think of it as comprehensive protection, with the added bonus of being able to design better helmet ventilation. A removable protective chin bar, designed for trail riding adaptability. No tools required. Warning: all chin bars have limits, and serious injury or death can occur. Read the owners manual carefully before using your helmet
- X-STATIC AND XT2 PADDING, SWEAT GUIDE AND FLOAT FIT DH W/ FIDLOCK BUCKLE - Quick-drying materials, woven with real silver fibers. Sweat Guide pad design pulls moisture away from the brow pad and away from eyewear. A comfortable and secure fit system featuring an easy-to-turn rubber overmolded dial for adjustments.
- OVERBROW VENTILATION, GOGGLEGUIDE ADJUSTABLE VISOR SYSTEM, AND INTEGRATED BREAKAWAY CAMERA MOUNT - Overbrow Ventilation features intake ports on the brow of the helmet to usher in cool air and push it through the air-channel matrix for full-head ventilation. Adaptable visor system accommodates both goggles and glasses and works with or without the visor attached. Seamless camera mount, requiring no zip ties or tape, is engineered to break away upon impact to reduce the risk of injury.
- SPECIFICATIONS - Small (52-56 cm), Medium (55-59 cm), and Large (58-62 cm) Sizes. Important: always take a head measurement. Head sizes and shapes can vary, even within an age range. Using a helmet that does not fit can be dangerous; 19 Vents, 2 Brow ports, and 4 Chin Bar vents.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for multipurpose long climbs with long/technical decents and days at the bike park!
*by P***L on October 25, 2022*

For the value, comfort, looks and protection, overall this is a GREAT helmet. I went to a bike park for the first time this year and feeling like I would be going back, I decided I wanted my own full face so I didn't have to rent one every time. I have actually been using the helmet without the jaw for my regular not as technical rides. Some people complained because it looks goofy without the jaw but the point of a Helmet is safety so who cares. It just looks thicker without the jaw on there which I'm fine with if I have a random fall. It's been really nice on my bigger rides I do on the weekends we usually do some solid climbing and I've been wearing the helmet and carrying the jaw piece on my backpack and then strapping the jaw foe full helmet downhill when I do longer or more technical decents. Gives me a bit more confidence and makes me feel safer when wearing it. I had another friend buy the same helmet for this purpose also. Only thing is one of the pads inside the helmet comes off randomly here and there because it's held with velcro that isn't very strong. Other than that, I've been very happy with this helmet!
