Bell motorcycle helmets; an All American company....
Bell Motorcycle Helmets
Named after the town auto parts store outside of Los Angeles where
it started, Bell is an American helmet company .
No review of
motorcycle helmet manufacturers would be complete without mentioning the Bell
company. As well as motorcycle helmets, they also produce
helmets for bicycle and car racing
Did you ever
wonder what happened to Bell helmets? Bell seemed
to be around forever, and the distinctive Bell logo was everywhere. .
If you were serious about motorcycle riding, you owned a Bell motorcycle
helmet.Bell were
started in the 1950's and quickly became the motorcycle helmet of
choice for a huge number of riders. Bell was the Arai, Shoei
and Suomy of its time and they became so popular that almost all the serious
racers in the US wore Bell motorcycle helmets
After some financial difficulties Bell was
purchased by Bieffe, the Italian helmet manufacturer, who decided that the Bell
name was a little too "old school" so Bell bike helmets all but
disappeared from the market. In recent times
the Bell name was reacquired from Bieffe, and Bell motorcycle
helmets are now available again in the U.S.A. Bell helmets
opened a motorcycle helmet design and testing facility in Santa Cruz, California
to develop, prototype and create the tooling necessary to manufacture the new
designs. They have developed an extensive selection of Snell M2000
and DOT approved motocross and off-road helmets, and they've recently developed
a line of open-face motorcycle street helmets that offer some unique features
for the cruiser market.
I have put together a sample of what Bell motorcycle helmets are available on the Bell Helmets page.
