HP7 NO DUCKBILL VERSION
Bell HP helmets have been developed to meet or exceed the FIA8860 Advanced Helmet Standard. This standard was developed by the FIA to improve overall helmet performance and safety and is known as the most severe racing helmet standard. Since 2004, when Bell introduced the first FIA8860 helmet in the world, the HP helmets have been constantly improved. The current models are a direct result of intense Research & Development and close collaboration with F1 Teams & Drivers. For maximum safety, the Bell HP helmets feature a pure carbon shell using autoclave technology, combined with a specific expanded polystyrene energy absorbing liner. Test shows that in certain impacts, the Bell HP helmets absorb up to 40 per cent more energy! Depending on the fit pad size and the mounted accessories such as spoilers, flaps or air intake, the Bell HP helmets weight only 1290 grams (+/- 5%) in size 59, making them the lightest and the safest helmets currently available in the world for automobile racing.

FORCED AIR ACCESSORIES HP5 TOURING
The HP5 is the helmet of choice for racers in a closed car environment for use with an external cooling system (available separately) or with a simple airduct system (not included).
WITH VISOR
It divides the air inflow evenly in vent channels that direct ventilation in the helmet to cool the face and prevent shield fogging and into the air chamber top pad, evenly dispersing airflow to cool the driver around the the head.
The Bell HP5 uses the same high-end technology as the HP7. It features a larger aperture, making this helmet more appropriate for closed cars. • Super high strength carbon composite shell • Larger aperture for optimal use in closed cockpit cars • Adjustable sun peak with anti-dazzle strip included in the box • Powerful top and chin bar ventilations • Top forced air and side forced air intakes available separately for use with an external cooling system or with a simple airduct system • FIA8860-2010 Hans® post clips fitted as original equipment • Fleeced lined helmet bag included • Sizes: 57- to 61+

Classic Series Bell invented the motorsports helmet in 1954 and significantly upgraded the design with the addition of expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam a couple years later. One of the first open face BELL helmets, the 500-TX, is selected by the Museum of Modern Art in New York for Excellence of Design. The 500-TX was the first helmet to receive Snell approval and would set a standard for product safety.
500-TX CLASSIC
In 1966, Bell launched the world’s first full-face motorsports helmet and quickly earned the admiration and support of the world’s top motorsport racers and enthusiasts. Many famous drivers such as Jacky Ickx, Jackie Stewart, Niki Lauda, Gilles Villeneuve and many others have all worn the Bell Star to protect their head in the seventies and the Bell XFM-1 in the eighties. Fast-forward 40-odd years and Bell is again launching the 500-TX Classic, the Star Classic and the XFM-1 Classic to the delight of true classic car enthusiasts and historic car drivers. The same shape as the famous original Bell helmets are reintroduced but produced to the latest safety standard (Snell SA2010) using the latest production techniques and high tech materials.
