Bell Custom 500 Cobra Helmet is a throwback, a retro design and a return of an original! Back in 1954, Bell founder, Roy Richter, formed hit first helmet out of fiberglass and named it the "500". That moment was ground zero for the modern motorsport helmet and it gave rise to an entire industry. Bell's new Custom 500 pays homage to Richter's original design and adds modern protective technolohy to bring the design up-to-date, while still keeping the original's aesthetic. By combining a custom fiberglass layup with a specially designed EPS foam layer, Bell engineers were able to craft a helmet that is at once light weight, narrow in profile and DOT compliant. Add to that the custom paint-inspired graphics and a quilted liner to get a helmet that looks as good as it performs.

Unfortunately, the small in this helmet is on back order until around the 2nd of February, 2012.  Please place your preorder today to ensure that you are amoung the first to receive this awesome helmet.  All other sizes are currently available!
