Named after the patron saint of cycling, the divine Ghisallo returns after a year of rave reviews from everyone from journalists to pro team honches to regular Joes and Joans alike. Seventeen cavernous vents scoop air through this sculptural beauty which features Bell's one-hand, micro-adjustable GPS fit system, as well as a Fusion In-Mold Microshell and bottom wrap. Top it off with some of the sexiest styling around, cooling internal air channels and a feathery curb weight and you've got yourself a stage winner and then some. Race proven in the US and Europe by the Credit Agricole, 7-Up/Nutrafig and Diet Rite Teams.
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 Ghisallo and X-Ray now feature internal reinforcements. These composite skeletons fortify helmets the same way rebar makes concrete stronger. This allows for bigger, better 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 and over the head while flushing warm air out through the rear ports. You'll find some form of this feature on almost every Bell helmet, but our higher end models feature deep, sculpted channels that keep air moving whether you're bombing it at 30mph, or huffing it uphill at single-digit speeds.
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 to the lever. Done.
FUSION IN-MOLD MICROSHELL: In-molding is the process of bonding the helmet's hard outer shell to its EPS foam layer to provide a sturdier, more solid hemet. 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 or bonded on later. This process was pioneered by Bell and is now the standard for all high-end 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.

What a great fit! This helmet (depending on your head) makes your head feel completely protected and integrated with the helmet. It is very comfortable weight-wise and temperature-wise. My old Trek he... [click for full review] |
