Review on πŸ–€ Matte Black X-Large Bell Rogue Half Helmet with Enhanced SEO by Mike Shah

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Bought the hype that this is a really cool new helmet

Not impressed with design or functionality I bought into the hype that this is a really cool new helmet. As a half helmet without a mask, it is functional but not optimal. The rear collar area is bad at catching wind and makes it difficult to turn your head at high speed, which is a safety issue. Above 65mph the wind pressure inside the helmet is significant and very annoying, again due to the back padding/collar I think. The helmet also pulls straight up from all the wind it catches and digs into your neck with the chin strap. The chin strap is ridiculously, insanely, unnecessarily long. Seriously, unless you're a Hermann Munster with a 3-foot face, you're going to have a lot of slack and there's no built-in way to shorten it. The face mask is not comfortable at all and not easy to put on. It rubs the bridge of your nose when riding, hurts at speed, and you can't put your helmet on with your mask on, so you have to fumble around afterward. Removing the mask when removing the helmet is no less annoying. Overall NOT worth the money. There are many better and more economical alternatives. I would not recommend it. After 3 rides you should be able to find my helmet on Craigslist in the near future.

Pros
  • Constant test results
Cons
  • Not sure
