Bell 4Forty MIPS Helmet matte/gloss brick red/ocean

Mountain biking is a demanding sport - compromises and shortcuts when it comes to gear are never a good idea. The 4Forty is built to withstand the rigors of a trail-riding life; with generous ventilation, the comfort of Float Fit and built-in Sweat Guide, extended rear coverage, a full hard shell, adjustable visor and integrated MIPS protection. Boasting the comfort, protection and broadly capable features of helmets costing twice as much, the 4Forty is a bantamweight, all-conditions, all-kinds-of-trail champion packing a heavyweight value. 

Integrated MIPS
Integrated MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System)is designed to reduce rotational forces that can result from certain impacts. By integrating the MIPS slip plane into the retention system, Bell is able to reduce complexity and weight for a compact, better ventilated helmet that fits more closely to the head.

Float Fit
Bell's most advanced helmet fit system combines comfort and safety in an ultra-lightweight design. Float Fit optimizes the fit of the helmet in 2 ways - in terms of head circumference and vertical adjustability. To reduce weight and simplify usability, the guide arms uniquely enclose the back of the head thanks to "Float" design. This puts the helmet in an ideal position on the head. Simple, lightweight and comfortable.

X-STATIC pads
The X-Static pads are woven with silver threads. They are quick-drying and antibacterial to prevent odour build-up. In addition, the thermal properties of the X-Static pads give the rider a cooling sensation in hot weather and a warming sensation in cold weather.
