Description of 🚲 BELL Z20 MIPS Road Bike Helmet for Adults

FUSION POLYCARBONATE SHELL & PROGRESSIVE LAYERING CONSTRUCTION - 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. FLOAT FIT RACE (INTEGRATED WITH MIPS) & MIPS-EQUIPPED - Custom fit at the highest performance, Seemlessly integrated with MIPS and offers three-way adjustability: height, pad width and tension. MIPS stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System, which is a leading slip-plane technology inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational forces that can result from certain impacts. X-STATIC AND XT2 PADDING & SWEAT GUIDE - Quick-drying materials, woven with real silver fibers. Sweat Guide pad design pulls moisture away from the brow pad and away from eyewear. NO-TWIST TRI-GLIDES & PROGRESSIVE LAYERING - Quick-adjust fasteners that help keep straps flat and properly positioned. The process of engineering a helmet liner with variable EPS foam densities to better manage the transfer of energies after some impacts. 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; Overbrow Ventilation System with 18 vents.

Near the green of Bianca Celeste.

Attention, UPDATE: sweat lining worn out after a year, velcro not working. Must be glued. Give extra padding along with the helmet. THIS WILL WORK FOR TWO YEARS THEN GARBAGE. Received mint green and it's better than the picture they give. It's actually close to green Bianchi Celeste in a matte finish. I was planning to buy a Bianchi bike next year, it won't clash, it's pretty close. On my first ride on a hot day I was pleased and amazed that the helmet wicks sweat away from the helmet; So no…

Cons

Good helmet, poor implementation MIPS

When I put the helmet on MIPS, the inner liner catches on the foam and velcro and pulls the helmet sideways. The only way to pull it off is to take your helmet off and remove the balaclava from whatever it's stuck to. The only way to avoid this is to very gently lower the helmet directly onto your head, and even then, a slight nudge or nudge can snap it back into its stuck position. This is bad for several reasons: 1. Poor airflow as the liner is now blocking some of the air2. Forces the helmet

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Great price

Great fit. Super comfortable.

I wore KASK Mojito because it was the only brand that suited me, usually for rounder Asian heads. But for me, like a sweaty head, the endless dripping in my glasses was very annoying, even though they are light and good-looking. And then I came across the Z20 (Marshmallow). I have worn Bell motorcycle helmets and loved them so I decided to give it a try. Oh man! It feels like it was made specifically for my head. The MIPS is secure and thanks to the lock washer on the back and the flexibility…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Crumpled

Compared to Kask and GiroSport for a young child

I chose this helmet for my child after contacting Bell, Kask and GiroSport to inquire about the design. I needed a helmet with dedicated rear room because if you just slide the helmet to squeeze the rear, the helmet is not protecting your head in the key areas it was designed for. It would be too high or too low. On the subject of MIPS: Kask have their own version of MIPS and their helmets are certified to national regulatory standards, but they didn't answer my question about the ponytail…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Incredible price

When I found out about MIPS helmets I decided to buy a new helmet with this feature. I've never needed a bike helmet, but after falling off a broken ladder, which resulted in a severe concussion, it took me 18 months to fully recover. I appreciate the value of the very best bike helmet. The installation instructions are terrible. There are three adjustment mechanisms and the instructions only cover one of the three. I had to search YouTube for third party videos showing how best to fit the…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Sundries

Great reflective helmet

I bought this helmet after banging my head on the side of my old helmet on the road. This one had MIPS and I didn't have a concussion, headache, starlets or anything, although my arm and legs were scraped, bruised and bleeding and my neck and shoulder hurt for a week. I stay with MIPS! This helmet is light and airy. I feel a breeze on my head when driving very fast. I have long hair and wear it in a ponytail when riding. I didn't have the issues that other reviewers reported. My hair has never…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and chunky
