FORMULA

Studies show that when you crash and hit your head, it’s most often an angled impact. This creates rotational motion, and the brain is very sensitive to this. In partnership with Mips®, we offer the world’s leading rotational energy management systems.

SPHERICAL TECHNOLOGY

ACTIVE ON IMPACT

Helmets with Spherical Technology provide comprehensive protection and performance. Developed at the Bell+Giro Dome in partnership with Mips® , Spherical Technology’s unique Ball-and-Socket Design redirects impact forces, bringing market-leading design, performance and brain protection together without compromising comfort, ventilation, weight or style.

BALL-AND-SOCKET DESIGN

Spherical Technology’s Ball-and-Socket design, powered by Mips® , helps redirect impact forces away from the brain by allowing the outer liner to rotate around the inner liner during a crash. It also eliminates contact with hard plastic or slip-planes against the skin.

PROGRESSIVE LAYERING

Dual-density liner designed to address high and low-speed impacts for more comprehensive energy management

SEAMLESS INTEGRATION WITH MIPS®

Spherical Technology allows optimal integration of Mips®, the marketleading brain protection system designed to address rotational motion, for an added measure of protection in certain impacts

LUXURIOUS COMFORT

Optimal fit with plush padding and excellent moisture management

UNRESTRICTED VENTILATION

Maximum cooling power with no obstruction to vents or interior channeling

PROVEN PERFORMANCE

Helmets with Spherical Technology have earned Multiple Awards, 5-Star Rating from leading independent test lab and the choice of elite riders worldwide

FITS YOUR STYLE

Helmets with Spherical technology are available for road, gravel, mountain, ski and snowboard

DEVELOPED IN THE DOME

Spherical Technology was developed in the Bell + Giro Dome, a world leader in head protection design, testing, research and innovation.

FULL FACE

For the last half century, the name Bell has been synonymous with competition. Our pedigree has been tested between the tape of racecourses all over the world. Along the way, we’ve teamed with the best riders in the industry to break every boundary we could find. The accumulation of World Championships, legendary runs and DNFs bear out the commitment to pushing our own limits. All this work has led us here:

THE FULL-10 SPHERICAL

SPHERICAL TECHNOLOGY™ POWERED BY MIPS®

As the demands of racing increase, so does the need for increased protection. The Full-10 offers Spherical Technology powered by Mips. Created in the Bell+Giro testing Dome in Scotts Valley, CA, our proprietary Spherical Technology features a Ball-and-Socket design that helps redirect impact forces away from the brain, allowing the outer liner to rotate around the inner liner during a crash. Because of the Spherical Technology channels inside the carbon shell, we achieve superior sweat management, weight reduction, and ventilation like never before—all without compromising energy management.

THERMAL EXCHANGE AIRFLOW SYSTEM™

This ventilation is so extreme, we named it the Thermal Exchange Airflow System™ (T.E.A.S.) because of how it sucks in cool air like a vacuum and then expels hot air through the side and rear exhaust ports. And as any rider knows, ventilation and sweat management go hand-in-hand.
