Experience with Bell helmets?

[bbrovold]

I was looking at Bell helmets online. I remember them from years back but they don't seem to be too common now. Does anyone have experience with the modern Bell helmets (Sprint) and similarities or differences between Shoei?

I have worn Bell helmets for a long time for different motorsports activities and have been very satisfied with them.

If you are looking at the Sprint helmets, contact me off list because I might be able to help you out. My email is daveb74 at juno dot com.

Take a look at www.leatherup.com  they are having a sale on Bell helmets and the prices way way low!!

I saw those and was tempted but I picked up a cheap HJC at the local mc shop today to get my instant gratification after trying on everything in the store. I may still jump on a Bell but I just wish I could find a place locally so I could at least try one on to see how it feels.

I'm very new to motorcycling but my first helmet was a Bell Spirit and I've been pretty happy with it. I have a large head, and after prolonged riding it puts noticeable pressure on the front of my head just above my hair-line. Other than that, I like it alot.

I have a bell Apex helmet with the 'Tagged' paint scheme and so far it's not too bad. I've worm bell offroad before but this is my first street helmet. I previously wore Shoei.
