Product description

Mountain biking is a demanding sport - compromising on equipment is definitely not a good idea. The 4Forty helmet is built to withstand the rigors of the trails. Its quality is equal to helmets that cost twice as much: it has a deep profile covering the back of the head, is perfectly ventilated, fits perfectly on the head thanks to the Float Fit clamping system and has an adjustable visor.

MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) provides increased protection against rotational forces on the head. More atMIPSprilby.cz">www.MIPSprilby.cz.

Main advantages and specifications

• SUPPORT SYSTEM: Float Fit (MIPS integration)
• CONSTRUCTION: In-mold Polycarbonate Shell
• VENTILATION: 15 holes, Channeled Ventilation
• FEATURES: adjustable label, Sweat Guide
• SIZE: S (52-56 cm), M (55-59 cm), L (58-62 cm)

All Bell helmets are designed to absorb as much energy as possible in the event of an impact and comply with the valid European standard: EN 1078.

MIPS - Multi-Directional Impact Protection System

MIPS is a slip liner between the EPS shell (helmet body) and the inner liners. In the event of an angled impact, the EPS shell of the helmet will roll a few millimetres over the MIPS layer, protecting the head and brain from the violent rotational jerk.
Although this movement is only on the order of a few millimeters, the result is that MIPS significantly reduces the amount of rotational force that might otherwise be transmitted to the brain.

Technology:

• FLOAT FIT™ (Stratus, Catalyst, Formula, Drifter, Super 3R, Super 3, 4Forty and Hela) Minimalist clamping system that is easy to operate with a wheel. It also has the option of height adjustment.

• FUSION IN-MOLD POLYCARBONATE SHELL Technology of direct injection of EPS polystyrene foam into the shell and reinforcements enclosed in the mould. This way a very strong, durable and compact unit is achieved. Bell's original technology, which has become the standard.
